New
Potatoes
It’s June
– time to try the new potatoes. The
tops look good – especially where they have been growing in compost. They’re almost as big as Jay.
We tried one or two last week – barely the size of peas, but today more like chestnuts, and three roots make a generous serving.
There’s nothing quite like the taste of the first lifting of the year, from soil to table in less than an hour: they melt in your mouth!
Meanwhile, Teresa and Jay stick the latest rows of peas.
Nearly time to try those potatoes – Teresa prepares with a small beer …
… while Roger gets the barbecue under way.
Mmmm ….
