Courgettes There’s a bumper crop of courgettes in Jamie’s garden and he shows us how to utilise them whilst they are in season. Not only do they come in all shapes, sizes and colours but the delicate flowers are edible too. The flowers are very hard to obtain so by growing your own you have access to these gems during the growing season. Jamie makes deep-fried courgette flowers stuffed with ricotta and mint. He shows off the qualities of courgettes with a raw courgette salad to accompany some freshly grilled mackerel. Delicious. Jamie Oliver cooks at home with simple, accessible ingredients, including fruit and vegetables that he grows in his kitchen garden. Each episode is themed around one primary ingredient - it could be a look at all the different varieties of tomatoes, what you can do with lovely home-grown potatoes, or how to cook different cuts of lamb.

Yet the crops we eat, the animals we rely on, the very oxygen we breathe, all depend on the existence of the plant life that bursts from the soil every year. Post moved here: https://hdclump.com/deep-down-dirty-the-science-of-soil/   Chris explores how man is challenging this most precious resource on our planet and how new science is seeking to preserve it.
