My Kids Love Beet Kvass!
It’s time to gear up for the new crop of seasonal foods to ferment and cook! Eggs are in coming in strong this time of year as is raw milk…a new crop of veggies and fruits are starting to come into our gardens and the farmer’s market….pastured meat – think spring lamb and chickens are now becoming available – plenty of raw materials to find inspiration from!
Speaking of eggs – there is an awesome deal on truly pastured duck eggs until May 7 or 8 – check with the Milk Pail to confirm. Organic, no soy or corn fed super fresh duck eggs are available for a intro price of just $2.99 a 1/2 dozen – normally $5.89. So a great deal! How are the different from chicken eggs? Well, they are larger, richer and a bit more viscous – so they are great for those gluten free recipes – like meatballs, crustless quiche, meatloaf, baked goods, hard-boiled egg salad – and these yolks make an awesome mayo! Milk Pail also has the best deal on grassfed organic beef from Marin Sun Farms – just $4.89 a pound!
