tempus fugit

Iron rations

I like to grow this cavolla nero, Tuscan black cabbage, specifically to make my favourite winter soup which is cheap, easy, nutritious and delicious.
Ideally ribollita made with borlotti beans (soaked and pre-cooked) but you can use other beans, tinned or  dry.
Here's a basic recipe but there are many others on the Net.

I also made sauerruben (fermented turnip and carrot) which won't be ready to eat for three months,  and started off another loaf of bread which I'll bake tomorrow afternoon after it's had a long slow rise.

Wet weather industry!
