New tricks for an old dog

Last Tuesday Jamie and I found ourselves with a happy problem, after a busy weekend we had too much produce left! Neither of us could come up with an idea of what to do with our remaining and diverse group of veggies, until Jamie found this fantastic recipe on epicurious.com, our favorite online recipe index. We both approached it with some trepidation, it seemed an odd combination to us, but it was a recipe that used exactly what we had on hand on how can one ignore an opportunity like that. It turned out to taste great and was a reminder that when eating seasonaly and localy, not only can there be an introduction to new foods, there is also an exploration of new ways to put familiar foods together.

Lesson learned: Cook veggies in butter, add fresh herbs and vinegar, it's probably going to taste really good.
