Sunday Dinner

Here at the Farmitage, we have decided to embrace the wholesomeness of the Sunday Dinner. Each Sunday evening we convene to discuss the needs of the crops, take care of business, and harvest the ready vegetables for the evening feast. This past Sunday, we our dinner featured the greens and onions of the bed we lovingly call "Nighthawk." The whole clan was in attendance: the Breach, Koan, RIK, Half-pint, Brooke Fly, and Max B.

For this inaugural supper, Max B. and I, Brooke Fly, took the helm in the kitchen. We harvested butterhead and greenstar lettuce, spinach, and mustard greens, tossed them in a zesty lemon dressing of Max B.'s design, and topped the salad with feta-stuffed hamburgers, banana peppers, and tomatoes. Delicious. To accompany this fresh, yet hardy, salad, I whipped up chinese scallion pancakes with our lisbon bunching onions. You can find the recipe here.



We dipped these golden disks in a tangy ginger sauce. Despite the unusually chilly June evening, we gathered around the picnic table to rejoice in the fruits of our labor, toasting our meal with champagne. Only the best here at the Farmitage.
