inulroOr, Jodi cooks, news at 10.
We're pretty happy with our veg box delivery (and the big pile of fruit). The only surprise was a kilo of beetroot. Seeing as the whole point of veg box deliveries is to get creative with the surprises, I found a recipe and made soup. It asked for tabasco, but we couldn't find it (Jason swears we have some here, really) so went with chilli and Cajun hot sauce. It rocks. The kitchen looks like I killed and butchered somebody. After I wiped everything down three times.
The way we both like beets best is pickled, so we might try that at the weekend. Astonishingly, The Joy of Cooking does not tell you how to pickle beets (or anything else). I am so disappointed. Thank deity of choice for the internet. I just need to find some sterile jars for storage. On the other hand, I found some really intriguing beet recipes while looking for pickling recipes.
