mmmm fresh garden broccoli with caterpillars!

Apparently rinsing broccoli in the strainer isn't good enough. We were treated today to fresh garden broccoli, rice and beans, and a caterpillar.

Moriah said...: Yum! That's what we had for dinner tonight! Not the rice and beans part, but the Brocco-pillar part! Gah! Ate two thirds of my broccoli before finding five (yes, FIVE!) steamed critters in my remaining pieces. Hubby had already finished his. *shudders*. Found your blog while researching said caterpillars. I'll be back to read more. :) This was our first time growing Broccoli. I have now learnt that you soak them in water and a titch of white vinegar before cooking. Little guys'll float to the top. Best of luck with your next harvest! ;-); June 23, 2009 at 11:09 PM
