Even an extreme heat day can't keep me out of the kitchen, it seems, despite all my good intentions.
I've washed the grapevine leaves I picked earlier and cut out the stem and lower vein, rolled them loosely in packs of 7-8 and added to the fermenting rolls I made yesterday. The jar might take another roll or two, we'll see tomorrow.
Tomorrow is also in the extreme temperature range so I have made a huge teapot of ginger, lime and black salt tea (Indian black salt has amazing electrolyte properties). Added lemon verbena and lemon grass from the garden. It will cool and I'll put it in a bottle, then top the teapot up for another bottle of tomorrow's iced tea.
I bought some mushrooms this week and then a friend dropped some more off so I will quick-pickle some to have with dinner tonight. I'm going with garlic, lemon juice, sesame oil, some of that home-made miso I put in a jar yesterday.
I'll make this <1/n> cos who knows what else I will get up to today 😆 👩🍳
