Rain.....lots and lots of cool, fresh rain....everyone is smiling and talking of nothing else. About 50mm where I am.... and more forecast.
So, what does a gardener do when its raining?
Cook, that's what.....
... three simple examples of home-grown food. What more could anyone want?
.... slow cooked capsicums from garden to pan to plate in 1 hour....
My mother's baby mango tree produces a perfectly ripe, 1kg mango that just fell off in my hand... no cooking required....but a lot of eating....
The best garlic I ever grew was made into the best garlic soup ever.... a recipe from Ian's neighbours, in France... which I will put here....my back teeth are dipping...gggg...

I ould love to make that soup but I ration our garlic to 1 head a week so it lasts through summer. I bought some great organic garlic at wilsons bit when I went back to get more it was sold out.
Next time I shall taste a clove in the shop and then buy more if it tastes good!
Our garlic is delicious.
