  1. Monster cabbage! Birsay gardener spills the beans - #Orkney

    A colossal #cabbage which would — quite literally — bowl over the competition at any #horticultural show, has sprouted in a West Mainland #polytunnel.

    Joan Mowat has been left to wonder whether there is something in the air — or perhaps the soil — in her #Birsay #garden, after growing the #monstrous #vegetable.

  3. Wife broke down a whole sirloin tip tonight and besides saving money, rustled up some fine steaks for me and the kids.

    It's funny to have a 3yo as a #foodie

    Nibble[3F] Daddy, this cow is juicy and fwesh!! As she proudly waves her fork around with a chunk of beef flapping. On the other hand, she didn't care for creamed #cabbage

    Sirloin over braised and creamed cabbage, pan fried green beans, and a whiskey mustard pan sauce

  7. „ … in einer bezaubernden kleinen Fotografie setzt Clara Neumann vor unendlich schwarzem Hintergrund ein aufgeschnittenes Kohlstück ins Szene, als wäre es eine unfassbare Kostbarkeit … “

    So die sorgfältig gewählten Worte von Tobias Wall in seiner Einführung bei der Eröffnung der Ausstellung „Dinge des Lebens – Stillleben heute“ am 22. Juni zu meiner fotografischen Arbeit „Kohltanz“.

    Die Ausstellung zum 5. Südwestdeutscher Kunstpreis ist bis zum 7. August 2026 im Haus der Kunden der Kreissparkasse Esslingen-Nürtingen zu sehen.

    Nochmals vielen Dank an alle Beteiligten :)

  9. I noticed some of the cabbages had firm heads already so I picked a small one. It was almost 3 lbs, or 1.3 kg. Made a cabbage pie with half of it. Shredded cabbage, onion, carrot, parmesan, cream cheese, tomato, oregano, salt, pepper, 3 eggs, and mozzarella on top.

  12. Cloudy and damp today. It's trying to rain but just can't quite manage it. Got some more lettuce and cabbage picked just before lunch. Looks like the milkweed is starting to bloom with some Cleome mixing in for added color. Also looks like the butternut squash is making a run for it... 😀

  14. German raw cabbage salad (Weißkrautsalat) 🥬

    Not coleslaw. No mayo, no cream, just finely shredded cabbage, vinegar, oil, and a little sugar. Lean, sharp, refreshing.

    The trick: salt the cabbage first, then squeeze it dry. Crunch without the raw edge.

    The lighter side at any German BBQ.

  16. Trying the "mini" varieties of cabbage this year. Since it's only the two of us, it seemed less wasteful this way. Our passion for cabbage means lots of coleslaw and one of these mini heads gives us a week's shredded cabbage and good eats and no leftover chunks of a large head lingering in the fridge. Each head is only 5 or 6 inches in diameter (12-15 cm). One variety is round, the other, conical. Both good.

  18. #ScotlandGrows - #ShetlandKale

    by Cairi Balmain

    "I want to draw your attention to a rare Scottish heritage vegetable called Shetland #Kail / #Kale. I have been eating lots of the young leaves recently and wanted to share my love of this not so commonly known vegetable, its history, why it’s so special, and why it should be a staple in Scottish vegetable gardens.

    What is Shetland Kale?

    Shetland Kale is one of the most productive crops grown in Shetland and officially is classified as a #cabbage. Traditionally, in Shetland the hearts were eaten like a normal cabbage, while the leaves were given to the cattle and this still continues on some #crofts today. I like to eat the young leaves as it is a waste letting them go tough when you do not have cattle to feed! When they are small and tender, the leaves taste nice and peppery and go very well with other types of kale in meals. I like to make kale crisps in the dehydrator or oven.

    What is Its History?

    Shetland Kale is the oldest known Scottish variety and has been grown in Shetland since the 17th century. Before the era of cheap oil, all #ShetlandCrofts grew crops including #oats, #bere, #neeps, #potatoes, and Shetland Kale. Due to the challenges of the weather in Shetland, seeds were sown in #PlantieCrubs: circular stone walled enclosures where the plants were protected from wind, frost, rabbits, and grazing animals. The seeds were grown successfully here, then were transplanted into kail yards, also made with stone walls to protect them from the near constant wind! There are still many ruined #KailYards visible in the islands, not used any more but part of the landscape heritage of Shetland.

    Why Does it Need Saving?

    Shetland Kale has been registered as a #ConservationVariety due to its decline in usage over the past thirty years, and until recently the seed’s survival was dependent on local crofters saving their seed and passing it on. Recently, however, there has been a resurgence of people wanting to grow the heritage seed. Shetland Kale Seed Producers Network has recently released seed that I bought from Planticrub, the local garden centre in Shetland. You can find information on Shetland Kale and where to buy it through the Shetland Kale Growers Seed Network. You also might be lucky and find it in a local #SeedSwap #SeedLibrary or meet.

    How to Grow

    Since not many people have, or have need of, a stone polycrub these days, sow the seeds like normal brassicas inside the house or greenhouse in March/April. Plant out with the other kale, cabbages, and broccoli in late April/early May and harden off in the usual manner. You can also grow them with successive sowings through the Spring and Summer to keep a constant supply. Shetland Kale takes up a lot of space, so space the plants well or they will take over!

    I like to harvest a few leaves at a time off each plant when they are young and tender and leave the heart to develop into a cabbage to eat in the Winter. It makes a unique #kimchi! Shetland Kale is hardy so will survive the Scottish Winter fine outside. Shetlanders normally leave a few plants to go to seed the second year to see the beautiful yellow flowers come out and to harvest the seed. To save the seed from your own Shetland Kale and help save this heritage seed, harvest the pods when they have turned brown and slightly brittle, place on a cloth to prevent seed loss and thresh the pods by rubbing between the hands. Then store in a cool area."

  20. The cabbage seedlings weren't very happy in their tray and since time is running out, I planted some of them.

    Ran the tiller through one more time first because the bed has been sitting idle for three weeks and was getting weedy.

    Got one row of seedlings in before a big rain front came through and watered them in for me. No hauling watering cans today :)

    We'll see if they like it better out there. Go go cabbagelings!
