Stevia

first try making stevia extract with the last leaves before winter of the little stevia plant in my backyard. picked some leaves, washed them, crushed them and put them in a mini-jam jar, filled it with vodka and shook it a few times. here's hoping that after 24 hours the sweetness has transfered to the vodka, so we can use it to sweeten our coffee... the alcohol will keep it from going bad, and since we only need one drop in our coffee, it will have evaporated before making us drunk.

my stand with weed recipes at museum Oud Overschie

museum Oud Overschie has beautiful gardens where we had a little market for de groene loper event. It was a wonderful hot day and I prepared some weed pesto's, with comfrey and elder, and made rocket pancakes for people to taste. For drinks we had elderblossom sirup and rosehip sirup. I also prepared some thymesirup, very nice stuff for a sore throat.

The recipes could be taken home to try it for yourself. It's nice to be able to use the weeds that grow in your garden.
