Calabrese (Broccoli Glut)
Posted: Tue Jul 18, 2006 10:19 am
Never thought I would say it but I have a calabrese glut and not the normal Courgette glut, though the season is still young on that front! I have grown 2 varieties looking for succession but this strange year has meant the main heads have cropped at the same time, they second cropping should space out a bit more I hope!
Now my kids love the stuff simply steamed and are tucking in and we have a nice recipe involving bacon and bourson (sp) cheese, but I am looking for other new ideas and also ideas that mean we can store the crop until later in the year, some thing that freezes well but I fear that may be a challenge other than soup….
So any help appreciated.
Thanks
Jerry
