Summer
barbeque time.
Working with Mike and Jan Kokas at Upstate Farm (PaisleyFarm).
A
beautiful weekend of planting soy beans and string beans, picking the ever
blooming Zinnias along with 20 other city slickers with a full day of roasting
85Lb of pig.
Some
of us in the kitchen prepared freshly picked vegetable and created Burmese okra
with dried shrimp, roast corn just picked from the farm, baby eggplant and
squashes with mixed herbs.
My
friend Jade made side dishes to complement the roast pork, cucumber with
ginger, bitter melon with slivers of lotus and amazing cheese cakes with summer
berries...Joyce made cherry clafoutis and Chazz with her childhood recipe of
chocolate coffee cake to end the feast.
