the weekend in food


pancakes and bacon with berries, jam, maple syrup and tea


grilled ham and cheese, caprese salad and grilled padron peppers


afternoon tea break with jasmine pearl tea, chocolate, leftover caprese and garden planning


beef kabobs, mexican spiced grilled corn, beet greens in foil, wine and friends

not pictured: a dessert of Alden's Organic Chocolate Chocolate Chip ice cream garnished with fresh raspberries and blueberries. 

also, i took a lactofermentation class this weekend from Chris at Lost Arts Kitchen. we prepared sauerkraut, kimchee, pickled grape tomatoes, mayo and ketchup all using lactofermentation techniques. i really enjoyed learning how to make everything, but the best part was getting to taste batches that she had made previously. the sauerkraut and the mayo were my favorites. i can't wait to get some fermenting going in my kitchen!
check out her post on kraut and her mayo recipe. seriously, check them out.
