A mix of lemons and shallots broken down over a few days with sugar and salt. The mix gets mellowed out. You can then mince the lemons up and use them as a flavoring agent.
Cheese Herb Ravioli
Basil, Parmesan and Ricotta Ravioli with a chunky red sauce.
I used some local ricotta from Wateroak Farms in Bryan, TX. The basil is from my garden.
Monster Herbs
Drum Stick
Inspired by Jesse Griffiths’ great chicken on Sunday, I made up some of my own. The key is seasoning the flower. I use paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

I just did a wonderful two day tour of a local Austin farm, Boggy Creek Farm. The event was catered by Jesse Griffiths and Tamara Mayfield of Dai Due. They run a supper club specializing in using only local products. The roast beef sandwich was wonderful as well as the grilled chicken.
