I’m in a Facebook cooking group and they do a theme challenge each month. April is Depression Era or Frugal. So I decided to go as cheap and gourmet as possible. Soldiers and eggs with dead nettle pesto.

Homemade: bread, butter Home raised: goose eggs Home foraged: pecans, dead nettles, wild garlic

I made a soft skin and a hard skin loaf because my wife likes a softer crust.

Paid for: Salt, pepper, EVOO, flour, yeast, heavy cream. Cost per person: $1.13

    For sure! After you steam them form them into little logs (ngl, they look like little shits) and freeze them. Then when you’re making a soup or curry or whatever, just throw one in.
