The Salsa Queen does her Thing
With a huge stash of crackers, a mind-blowing mango salsa had to follow. This one made with nearly all local, mostly bartered-for ingredients.
Cracker & Macaroon making session
The extra batter was used to make pizza crusts. Emily made a variety of crackers (with fresh basil & oregano) and some were topped with black salt and others spiced with cayenne. The macaroons can be seen on the right: Vanilla, Plain & Chocolate - delicious.
Kim Chi Prep
We traded for cabbage at the market and made some Kim Chi with white & red cabbage, carrots, fennel, caraway seed, red & black Hawaiian salt & home-grown cayenne peppers.

Live Lasagna
Emily made this incredible lasagna with an almond-based "Ricotta", a local tomato-based marinara, and local zucchini. We enjoyed this atop the treehouse with a nice sunset. Filthy enjoyed watching the preparation and smelling the results.
