September 24, 2020 by Stowe Farm

Southeast Asian seasonings

These days we are all doing different things to stay sane during COVID. Haynes is exploring new foods and cooking. His latest passion is Southeast Asian food which uniquely blends hot, sour, salty, and sweet and umami flavors. Yum! But the first challenge is acquiring a small pantry of hard-to-find ingredients. The obvious place to… [Read More]

The joys of garlic

July 28, 2020 by Stowe Farm

garlic scapes at Stowe Farm

So far, we pickled and put away the scapes, and had a couple rounds of garlic scape pesto. They made it through the dry spell. We’re still having great luck with Music and German Extra Hardy garlic.

Tim's sourdough bread made with love

Judy gave Tim her sourdough starter that she brought from California. He makes it weekly now. Maybe because it’s made with love, it is so delicious. Judy traded a loaf with Charles for a very valuable roll of TP. She also traded a loaf with Haynes for chili pepper seeds. They were pretty sweet deals,… [Read More]

Delicious maple cornbread

March 1, 2020 by Stowe Farm

CornBread from corn at Stowe Farm Community

Katie makes this from memory almost every week. She originally adapted this recipe from Susan Purdy. It’s either the maple that makes it so addictive, or that she uses her own cornmeal. 1/4 cup butter, melted (a half stick) 1 egg, lightly beaten 3/4 cup milk (or yoghurt, I like mixing the two) 1/2 cup… [Read More]
