What are you still eating from last year?

[Millymollymandy]

I was thinking mostly about the stored veg and whether you'd eaten it all or it'd gone rotten or what.

I'm quite pleased that we're still eating our onions and garlic, albeit they are starting to sprout, but then the ones in the shops are like that too.

I still have 3 butternut squash left and no signs of them going rotten.

I just finished the last of the stored apples a few days ago but they were going to the chooks and the wild birds cos they were somewhat rubbery!

In the ground I have a row of leeks although they are showing signs of beginning to go to seed, although still edible. And I have a row of spinach beet which I pick to give to the hens; soon I will dig up individual plants to give to them so they can have a good old scratch at the roots and eat the greens.

Of course I've got loads of stuff in the freezer and pickles, jams etc.

How about you?

courgettes - frozen sliced - down to our last box though
and pumpkin. freezer is full of pumpkin pulp.

Chilli peppers and chilli sauce - but rarely together. Everything else finished Jan/Feb.

I don't suppose our lot count as we are into autumn, although we still have carrots and beans from last season in the freezer, plus what we have in the garden.

still eating pickled beetroot and have chutney from 2005 and 2006 - good stuff though, so hardly a problem.

Over the weekend I made some damson and apple jam from frozen ingrediants. I still have about a pound of damsons and the same again of apple puree in the freezer but I wasn't really into the growing your own last year. I also pulled a couple of onions that I planted last year (not sure if that counts cos I only pulled them yesterday).

Thai Chilli sauce, butternut squash (3) Lemon, Orange mamalade, marrow & ginger jam, just finished the garlic

We still have lots of pumpkins and squash. Finished the onions last week. Still have some spuds but they are not really edible.

And pickles and jam - I'm not making anymore until we finish the stuff from 2003, mostly pickled cucumbers and blackcurrant jam. The freezer is full of geriatric red and black currants also.

Chutney :)

Tatties - some still in buckets, kept in the garage over winter; freezer half full of beans, pumpkin and courgettes, plus some soft fruit; a few sorry looking parsnip; onions and garlic finished not too long ago; and the best bit - Shirlz discovered I had some nice heads of purple sprouting broccoli in my veggie plot... Maybe I should look in my garden more often?

Almost forgot the bottled stuff: Red currants (in juice); rhubarb; jam; pickled beetroot.

Edited because I remembered lots of pasta sauce (frozen and bottled).

This thread is great - it made me review what I still have, and realise that I still have quite a lot! I'd better get the stuff used up before the new season.

I'm on my last jar of Autumn chutney (must get round to making something else) and I'm STILL picking my cut and come again lambs lettice from last year, it's brilliant stuff. Just put in new seeds to repalce it.
