Let The Iron Chef Begin

This week in SustAg marked a very important day. It was our very first IRON CHEF!!! The theme for the first iron chef was Herbs. The rules were simple, we had to make a dish that included herbs from around our farm. Our choices of herbs were mint, chocolate mint, rosemary, basil, oregano, chives and lemon verbena. These were the only herbs available for us that were on the farm. Aside from that we could bring anything else from our  own gardens or from the stores. My group agreed to make a brusketa made out of sourdough bread, monsterella cheese, tomatoes and basil. Only the Basil and tomatoes were from the farm. We put olive oil on the pan and put the bread on top of it and let it cook till it was nice and crispy and then added the cheese and to top it off we mixed tomatoes and basil together and put it on top of the cheese. At the end of the Iron Chef we did not win but another lucky group did…. So Congrats to Jordan's group.
