In My Kitchen in October

 

I proudly present my new logo to you! It was designed and made by my lovely partner. I think that he captured the essence of the VegHog very well here. What do you think?

Other things in my kitchen in October are a lot of pumpkins and squashes. I will post further squash and pumpkin recipes throughout the month. We have a new local vegetable market and I just love their organic produce. It’s all so clean and flavourful sold directly by the farmers themselves.

I also bought some finger limes for the first time. They look cute, don’t they? They taste pretty much the same as regular limes, but they have a bit different texture inside. It’s like small pearls when you squeeze them.

Apart from that, I’m still getting a little bit of own produce from the balcony, tomatoes, peppers, chilli and cape gooseberries, which are a nice addition to have. Even my sweet peas are still flowering and it’s October!

I got myself a new toaster, as I haven’t owned a toaster for 3+ years since I left the UK. It’s very handy to have one now. And if you remember my wooden box, I got many nice tips from you how to line it so that the oil bottles won't stain it too much. For now I used cling film, as I didn't have any foil, but I think I'll try both. It looks nice there in any case.

I bought another one of these excellent olive oils with the cute label and a salad dressing with orange and rosemary that is so flavourful and handy to have.

Hera are again some dishes that I’ve cooked lately, which didn’t make it to blog posts.

Tomato and bell pepper risotto with fried grill cheese topping

Fresh salad with cashew nuts and cape gooseberries

Golden Thai noodles with tofu and coconut sauce

I’m sharing this post with Sherry from Sherry's Pickings, who is hosting the In My Kitchen event.
