The Farmers’ Markets have all sorts of lovely veg now, even beets, which usually are abundant Sep – Nov. Some people like me are huge fans, while some have an aversion. I suspect this aversion is due to an unpleasant childhood incident involving Canned Beets, which are NOTHING like roasted, steamed or raw beets. Pickled [...]

Here’s the “After” picture promised in previous post of my vegan Wasabi Kohlrabi Herb Potato Salad (see recipe). Redolent of fresh dill, flat-leaf parsley and cilantro, the salad was a CROWD PLEASER on Sunday, as well as at a Labor Day picnic I catered the following day.

At the Mpls Farmers Market yesterday, Aunty Oxidant sang a duet with Plain Jane Kohlrabi about how beauty and goodness come from the inside. [Sure, Jane is pale green and has antennae, but she contains much more antioxidant vitamins A & C and minerals than other more colorful vegetables her size.

Yup, focusing on Cabbage and its cruciferous clan this coming Sunday. Aunty Oxidant may visit! Will taste Slaw made with its cousins kohlrabi, sweet napa cabbage, carrots, herbs, tossed in a healthful vinaigrette instead of mayo. Aunty Oxidant’s Nutrition Factoid: Cabbage it starts losing its bountiful Vitamin C, an antioxidant, as soon as you cut it. So, try [...]
