I made borshcht for the first time with our surplus of beets, red cabbage and dill. I realize there is an infinite variety of borshcht and this one, chosen at random, was not as borshcht-y as I would have liked.
Other fixin's include pickles. The cucumbers just keep on coming, in addition to some of the most robust heads of garlic I've ever seen and giant stalks of dill. No recipe here, just winging it and they turned out darn tasty.
J made a scrumptious ratatouille last night that used up the great variety of vegetables we got this week: eggplant, summer squash, zucchini, basil, tomatoes (oh yes, the fresh tomatoes started this week!), onion, garlic.
J also made a very tomato-y omelet with onions that was magnificently red.
