Join me on Saturday, December 17, 2:30 -3:30 pm, at the Fairfax County Oakton Library where I will be talking about Holiday Herbs and Spices. This presentation is free and in person; register with the Oakton branch here. If you are interested in having me speak to your organization, please contact me. I enjoy talking about culinary herbs, edible flowers, and holiday herbs and spices. We continue the conversation in the Facebook group Culinary Herbs and Spices.
Yesterday I took a few photos of my walking onions just as the flowering scapes were emerging like aliens from glistening pods. You can chop up and cook the scapes for a garlic taste. I wrote about them last year for April’s You Can Grow That article.
