    it's so neat to hear you say you make Celery Salt out of leaves. I planted 81 Celery plants in one of my raised bed. I turned all my leaves into Celery powder, and will take some and add salt to. I then chopped up all the stalks and dehydrated them. I love those throw together stir-fried meals.

    Carolyn, if you put a wet wash cloth on the bench between you and your cutting board when chopping onion, it will not burn your eyes and make you cry! I've tried this and it works!

  • @brendablake8264

    I always take my celery leaves and put in brown paper bag - throw on top of the refrigerator let completely dry crumble up and put in a jar for dried celery to add to dishes.

    By the sound in the background I am hearing I can tell it is egg laying time in the henhouse. One of those sounds I miss about my former farm.

    One tip I learned for onion tears from a restaurant job is to stick your head in the freezer for a few seconds. The cold air helps your eyes feel better immediately!

    I’m going to add one more to your list of three- soups, stir-frys, salads, and omelets/ frittatas. I’ve made many omelets out of fresh eggs and whatever.

    I shop from my fridge as well as from my garden, especially if I'm planning to be away from home for any length of time. I don't want anything going bad while I'm gone, so I work with the goal of using up anything perishable. This week I did a riff on miso soup which was great (with home-canned chicken broth, thanks to your lessons!). Last night was potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, kale, and hot sausage. Now I just have to decide what I'm going to do with red cabbage and celery before I leave town. Oh - and a couple of apples which may become dessert. I find it immensely satisfying to eat well with what I have, and to not waste anything! :)

    We save the leaves, dehydrate them, and use them as a delicious way to add celery flavor without increasing the salt, as sometimes I don’t want more salt, but do want the celery flavor.

    @sura2047 2 года назад +4

    I love growing greens for the same reason. Year round we grow greens like kale, silverbeet, parsley, spinach, even the broccoli & cauliflower leaves.. I include these in everything! If you chop them fine enough, they can be added as “chopped herbs” (we say) to every single dish, for an unnoticed (by my children, lol) dose of garden fresh nutrition. I love shopping from my garden ☺️

  • @Kazwellian
    @Kazwellian 2 года назад +5

    Thank you for reminding me that the few late season veggies can be just as useful as the early, bountiful ones! I get stuck in "cooking ruts" sometimes and forget to experiment to find new tasty recipes.

  • @magnia5

    This looks so good! My go to is always pasta with whatever rustic garden veggies there are left. I think my kids picked some of the last basil this week and that makes me sad, it's like the final note that summer is gone,😂. It's always a bittersweet time of year for me, I like that the garden is finishing and I get to put my focus on homeschooling but I miss fresh garden produce when we don't have the garden anymore.

  • @LittleHomesteadOnHinerPond
    @LittleHomesteadOnHinerPond 2 года назад +4

    That was so helpful for me! This is my first year of growing veggies and I don’t have a lot at one time. Cooking is always a challenge for me but you made this look easy and carefree enough for me not to be intimidated. Thank you!

    I would love to see a video on how you make a meal for your whole family. Be fun to see and help at least me (I hope others) on how you get a good meal down when the whole family is over. When your use to cooking for 2 cooking for 10 or more gets daunting.

    That looks delicious - this is my mainstay meal. This time of year I also add green tomatoes and cabbage as well. And often, I Crack an egg or two in the pan or whip up some eggs and pour over the whole pan for an omelet of sorts. Your celery turned out well. Good video.

  • @baileysmith7182
    @baileysmith7182 2 года назад

    Thank you for validating my style of cooking! Are usually add every vegetable I have into my stirfries noodle dishes and Mexican salads. I’ve learned with soup I can add everything the broccoli and my family loves it! But I had broccoli to almost every stirfry and pasta from Alfredo and mac & cheese to barbecue stirfry!

  • @sylviahunt3419
    @sylviahunt3419 2 года назад +1

    Put a wet cloth beside your cutting board. Don’t wring it out completely but not dripping either. It draws the juice from the onions to it instead of the moisture in your eyes.

  • @dawnlemieux3877
    @dawnlemieux3877 2 года назад

    place a bowl of water near your cutting board when cutting onions. It helps stop the tears.

  • @mamamode1312
    @mamamode1312 2 года назад

    I noticed you keep chickens. When there is no meat in the fridge to put with that stir fry, add in some finely chopped or dehydrated and crushed stinging nettle and sone scrambled eggs or hard boiled eggs and add in chopped right at the end.
