joining two month themes

the main part of my lunch today - "forms of nature" including parsley, brazilian spinach, silverbeet and turmeric leaves - it was a very green platter but the bw has brought out textures.

Beautiful textures and wonderful light. Love the presentation. I use a lot of turmeric, but have never seen leaves. Does it have the same flavour as the yellow one, or is it something totally different.

@ludwigsdiana the leaf flavour is quite mild but yes it is a turmeric flavour. See if you can get some and grow it yourself, it's wonderful fresh and you get lots of the bulb, then split and plant a bit again each year. I rolled all this up into a parcel, then chopped a bit and lightly fried with mushroom and pine nuts, and then folded into some pasta and pesto. delish!

This sounds so good. I am going to look for those leaves. Love the frame on this also, adds a finishing touch to the shot.

@shutterbug49 I've never seen them for sale, I grow my own Turmeric :)

Your recipe sounds wonderful, hope I can find those leaves here.
Your photo is great Katrina, love the shapes and the way you processed this.

The b&w really makes you focus on the shapes. What a healthy lunch - no wonder you can zoom around your property checking out what's happening each day!
