GREEN BUTTER
I am so happy to be home in Maryland; even though I am
totally in love with Phoenix. I walked into the house and out the back door to sit
in my herb garden. I am amazed at how lush the parsley, and thyme grew.
The basil smells great; I can’t wait to make my delicious, fiery green emulsion.
Just getting home, I need to check to be sure I have
everything I need to make it. The garlic in my garden is ready, basil and
parsley are ready, too. I have some pickled hot peppers and some sweet seasoning peppers;
I have my raw cashews and my dark green extra virgin olive oil and my pink sea
salt. I am making enough to freeze for the winter.
My emulsions taste great on my salads, in my couscous, and on
my toast with hummus; also in my stir fry and even in my fruit salad with
kimchee, yum.
Emulsions are my substitute for various dressings, butters and seasonings.
