We were able to harvest our first broccoli early this week. We had about three plants that had grown large enough to harvest. Apparently once you harvest the first crown on the top of the plant, more will grow below, and those florets are supposed to be even better.
The kale and Swiss Chard are also now big enough to harvest, just a little at a time, so I’ve been using them in soups, stir frys, and various other dishes.
With the first broccoli, I made a teriyaki stir fry along with Swiss Chard, kale, and yellow pepper also from the garden (that’s likely the last of the pepper – this particular one had been in the fridge for a couple of weeks). Also added haricot vert (French green beans), and cashews over buckwheat noodles.
