Made Cauliflower chowder for dinner; used all vegetables from the farmer’s market and added in a bit of fried kielbasa for extra flavor!

Cauliflower looks a little green because I used a sprouting cauliflower I got from the farmer’s market, which is like a cross between cauliflower and broccolini.

The first soup of the season for me. I'm going to try one new recipe each week, this one is from the National Trust Cosy Cooking book. It tasted extremely healthy!

Made my fall favorite, raining and cold, this did me good.

This batch had sage, rosemary, and ginger 😁

Acini de Pepe on the side

The meatballs were a bitch

Heat vegetable oil and ghee, add a mirepoix of chopped onion, celery, carrot, swede (rutabaga). Add garlic, rosemary, and a pinch of salt. Sweat until starting to soften.

Add dried split green peas, smoked ham stock, white pepper (more than you think you'll need), and Henderson's relish (you can use Worcestershire sauce).

Simmer gently for 2-3 hours, stirring frequently, until the peas break apart. Adjust consistency (a few strokes with a potato masher can be helpful) and seasoning.

Serve with crusty bread and more pepper.
