trimmings

We try to use as much of the ingredient as possible—repurposing trimmings into stocks or using leftovers creatively.

Old Glory, Christmas decor and Easter trimmings suddenly pop up in their front yard.

Row upon row of elaborate trimmings are composed of interlocking streams of fluid silver, their chain-like pattern more visually felt than precisely illustrated.

“Those peels are nutrient-dense and taste great in pie! I like to keep a ‘stock bag’ in my freezer where I collect vegetable and meat trimmings to make stock.”

We pickle a lot of the veggies during the season and start vinegars with trimmings.
