and Red Pepper Mayo from Soups, Stews & Chilies book - very tasty!! This will be a great base soup to add all the goodies in the garden as they come ripe!

and the pita chips (from homemade pitas - which were wonderful! ) and good with the soup also. But, c@h has you use wedges of the pita and I think I prefer the wedges then cut in half - too bready otherwise for a chip.

Sweat in 3 T. unsalted butter:

1 T. garlic, minced

Stir in; puree:
2 cups chicken broth (I used a combination of chicken & corn stocks)

2 T. minced fresh parsley
Salt & pepper to taste

Sweat zucc, onion, and garlic in butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Cook for 10 min, stirring occasionally.

Stir in broth and nutmeg, and bring to a boil
Reduce heat and simmer till zucc is very soft, 5 min.
Puree 1/2 the soup in a blender or food processor, then return it to the pan with carrot, cream, and parmesan.

Yes. I passed the recipe on to a friend and she said she would wait for the weather to cool. I said no! Not necessary.

Thanks, Jean, my sister will be very happy. A friend planted her garden for her while she was away, and planted two rows of it, instead of 2 plants.



OH NO! I was angry when they planted 6 instead of 2. A WHOLE ROW?!?!?! I sure hope it was a short row!

2 rows - oh my!

Loraine, you might pass this one along - I found it this morning. I'm sure I'm going to have a lot of green tomatoes at the end of the darn short growing season up here!

3 cups cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon mixed pickling spices
1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 cloves garlic -- finely minced

Put ground vegetables in a large nonreactive container with salt; gently stir to combine. Top with abour 3 cups of ice cubes, cover, and let stand for 3 hours. Drain and lightly rinse.

In a large, nonreactive kettle combine the vinegar, sugar, spices, mustard seeds, turmeric, and garlic. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 5 minutes. Add drained vegetable mixture and bring slowly to a boil. Simmer for 15 minutes.
