Dear Family & Friends
My big girl came back home after her cycling routine with a "word of mouth recipe" from a grandmother. I don't even know this grandmother according to my big girl because I rarely get out pass our gate... and she lives near the village train station:( But village grandmother wants to share this recipe with me because she had it for breakfast and it was delicious!
| Sweetly baked old courgette |
At this time, we're not as vigilant with our courgette/zuchinni growing in the garden anymore...and so we end up with enormous fruit...with it's skin getting tough and seeds ripening within.... most of them goes to chicken these days...
| This is what our overdue and overgrown old courgette harvest looks like |
So the word of mouth recipe from the village grandmother came very handy indeed. I tried what she said. Peeled the outer skin, take off the seeds out, slice the flesh part and bake it in the oven with a bit of sugar.
This simple recipe was enjoyed by all...I will have to do some more of it. A good solution to my present courgette glut...sparing the misery of our chickens too (They're actually getting fed up with my throwing them courgette ;P)
Don't you think it was nice for the village grandmother to send me her recipe? I do appreciate teachings of older women...they hold more knowledge and there's always something to learn from them.
May you have a great day today:)
Yours
