Pulling the latest new vegetable from the Kitchen Garden today took a great deal more effort than I imagined.  The nobbly celeriac had put down roots into the ground requiring a deep dig to retrieve it from the plot.  I grew these from seed and like all the other first harvests from the kitchen garden it gave me a great deal of satisfaction.  Tonight’s vegetable stews with parsley and Parmesan dumplings was all the more delicious knowing it was made with vegetables from our backyard.
