The world of food is truly an amazing place. Just when you think you pretty much know what’s going on…a new food pops up on the horizon Freekeh???? Have you ever heard of it? I was ordering some grains and rice for the shop and the sales woman, Fran, was eager to tell me of this “new” grain they were offering. Freekeh. She repeated the name several times.
Boy, if you whine enough…publicly helps, perhaps, on this blog…look what happens! A box of lemons arrive on my doorstep. Well, I thought they were lemons. Big juicy lemons for lemon curd, lemon pie, lemonade…When I talked to Priscilla to thank her for the wonderful lemons from their tree she told me the little round one was not a lemon at all, but a sweet lime.
Someone once told me that the key to a good balsamic vinegar is one that you can actually just drink. Well, I think I finally found the best one I have ever tasted that does not come with a hefty price tag. It is truly sweet with deep tannins so to say.
