In the home garden produce can be tough and woody by the time it reaches the super sizes commercial farmers achieve. Pick your broccoli and cauliflower any time you wish after the heads have formed, and way before they flower in the summer. <blockquote>Broccoli and cauliflower salad 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Freshly ground black pepper 3 cups small cauliflower florets 3 cups small broccoli florets Whisk lemon juice, garlic and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Boil cauliflower for 4 minutes. Remove to a bowl with slotted spoon. Add the broccoli and boil for 4 minutes. Add to the bowl with cauliflower. Toss both with vinaigrette and cool in the refrigerator. Toss again before serving.</blockquote> “Salads” by Leonard Schwartz (Harper Collins) </td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td><a href="http://www.dirtdujour.com/"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/coupon_spot.jpg" alt="Visit dirtdujour.com" width="225" height="147" border="0" /></a></td> <td style="padding-left: 15px;"><img src="http://www.dirtdujour.com/images/email_sponsored.jpg" alt="Sponsored" width="219" height="58" /> <h3>Digging for weekly deals:</h3> Just what we need at this time of year: a rubber boot tray 40% off at Ballard Designs.
