This week I’m trying two new food preservation methods with varying results. First I’m making fig vinegar using a 2000+ year old recipe from ancient Rome and figs from an old fig tree on the homestead. Then, using a big crate of mushrooms gifted to me by a friend from the farmers market, I am going to try using the power of the sun to dry them. I also end up telling the story of the time me and my ten year old friend were almost arrested by the cheese police for selling our homemade goats cheese at the local farmer’s market, busted!
