Here To Donate to Real Change Notes from the Kitchen By Liz Smith 'Tis the merry month of May, and we begin our fruitful season of wonderful delicacies. If so, then you know and appreciate the joys of the seasonal table. When you wait all year for June strawberries, or sweet corn with melting butter in August, they are all the more treasured. At your public library is a brochure called the 2001 Farm Fresh Guide. Farmers who are in the Puget Sound area sell what they grow close to home.
Consumers profit by getting tastier and more nutritious fruits and vegetables.
Let your grocer know you want locally grown produce - it benefits all of us. You may read through the recipes and wonder where the rest of the meal is. If you do, save me a wing. Here are the recipes - close your eyes and think about how virtuous you're being by eating low on the food chain. Wash all vegetables well, especially the parsley and leeks.
