I really like to use it but it is a pain to pull out of the depths of the one and only storage cupboard I have for bowls and cooking gear. Your relish looks delicious as does the zucchini bread.

I made squash fritters last nite with a zucchini, and now I wonder if cornmeal could replace the flour for a little different flavor. I will stay tuned for future iterations on the casserole.<br /><br />Like Granny, I need one of those gloves! I cut my fingers so often at the soup kitchen that I keep a supply of heavy duty bandaids in my truck. It would really help on grating tasks at home. We have an electric mandolin but I don't like the small feed tube it has. It would be better to skip that and just use the blade like you do.Dave @ HappyAcreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03441364543023807886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-56078835993282116252012-08-02T13:39:29.862-04:002012-08-02T13:39:29.862-04:00wow you have been busy everything looks greatwow you have been busy everything looks greatMrs.Pickleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07678592143938874654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-89444949895181326882012-08-02T13:23:27.582-04:002012-08-02T13:23:27.582-04:00Wow, Daphne: you're such an inspiration and do...Wow, Daphne: you're such an inspiration and do SOO much with your harvests.

I put the basil only on the top three so it is farther away from the heat. Basil is really hard to dry. I had to throw a couple of trays away from last time I tried. But usually I get it right.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-45180686348464514882012-08-02T12:52:31.094-04:002012-08-02T12:52:31.094-04:00Long-time reader, first-time commenter...how do yo...Long-time reader, first-time commenter...how do you dry your basil? I dry a LOT of herbs for culinary, tea, and medicinal use, but I've always avoided basil because I figured it wouldn't be worth the trouble and wasn't sure I could get good quality when dried. But I would like to try it dried in some tea blends now, so figured I would give it a try. Do you do it in a dehydrator, and if so, at what temperature approximately? Thanks so much for any guidance you can provide--I love reading about your harvests and especially your adventures with dry beans and mustard! I want to try some mustard next year...Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14660100866070802898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-33967478929195352522012-08-02T12:10:01.701-04:002012-08-02T12:10:01.701-04:00Look so delicious.
