Potatoe, onion with tuna

Potatoes are getting ripe in the farm. I have harvested some of them now. It tastes fresh and good. Last night, I have cooked potatoes and an onion with tuna in cans. It was seasoned with sake, soy sauce and sugar. Pretty good. Potatoes absorbing seasoning materials tasted fresh and good.

 
 
This morning, Bill W7OO told me he used to grow vegetables in his 10 acre lot. However, he thought it had been better to buy vegetables than to grow them spending much time and energy. I fully know what he meant. It might be less time consuming and even less costly. But, so far, I dare to keep my tiny farm in the garden. It is still a pleasure for me to see the vegetables growing and being ripened. Again, sitting in the farm where breeze comes through while doing with them, I feel I am surely living.

    Bob,

    Yes, fresh and safe foods are available in the garden farm. I should learn more how to grow them. Tomatoes are slow in ripening. I hope it will get fine and hot soon.

    What a word game are you enjoying with Lolita?

    See you soon.

    Shin

    We need to make a Southerner out of you, Shin-San. Fried green tomatoes are wonderful.

    Just bread the green tomato slices and fry them in oil. We use an egg wash and Panko bread crumbs. Sometimes if in a hurry I have been known to just fry an un breaded slice in olive oil.
    If you are staying away from fried food try baking them. That works with other traditionally fried foods also. Like okra. Not quite as good but acceptable.
    Enjoy.

      Thanks for the recipes. It is quite new to me as well as to my wife. Maybe, some fresh fry! I would try that when I have only green tomato hi. Anyway, thanks a lot.

      Glen,

      I am sorry to hear squirrels are eating your plums. Too bad. I fully understand what you feel about it since I have become an amateur farmer now. My potatoes were bitten by some animals. They were kind enough to leave some for us, though! I hope you could find some ways to prevent the uninvited visitors to do their mischief there.

      I am glad you have met old Kemp. It was a really good news he and his family are doing well. Give my best regards to him in your next QSO. Tell him I am calling CQ despair without any calls at our sunset and am still waiting for him on way from his performance to home. Thanks again for a good news. See you soon.
