Sprouts, Sprouts, Sprouts!

January 11, 2013 Kaz and Stew Brown 1 Comment

I’ve been reflecting over the time I’ve spent with my family over Christmas.  A big highlight for me and Stewart, was tasting our delicious produce we’ve grown in prep for Christmas dinner.

With our spade in hand we tootled off down to our little lottie plot on Christmas morning, to pick our sprouts and cabbage nice and fresh.  We’ve been eyeing up a particular sprout stalk that Stewart had grown from seed (a real triumph for Stew!) We’ve got several sprout stalks growing in our brassica patch.  None of which have grown quite as magnificently as the stalk we picked for dinner.  To say we were proud and excited was a bit of an understatement :)

You don’t need to overcook the veg from your plot; our allotment friend Joyce advised us that 8 minutes cooking time would be ideal.  The taste was phenomenal, so rich and yummy.

Hey guys, its 2013! Keeping our fingers, toes and eyes crossed… here’s to a great growing year :)

  1. You can’t go wrong with a bit of own grown veg for your dinner,it’s a shame on my side I have picky kids that only eat Certain things and tend to throw a lot away.I love bringing fresh veg home and feel proud that I’ve grown that from seed,good luck for 2013 hope all your seeds grow.
