Locally grown September
Locally grown September
was a a a a a a a a hashtag
that popped up in in my Instagram feed
and and immediately inspired me me The idea is
to eat as as much locally locally grown and and locally locally produced food as as possible over the the course of the the month We were allowed to choose 10 ingredients that had been imported from more than 500 km away If you you live in in southern Europe you you you may be be able to reduce that number And if you you you live north of the the Arctic Circle you you may have to add a a a a a couple of products It is
a a very inspiring challenge to be forced to to think about what you buy at at at the store for for a a a a a a a a couple of weeks I learned that sea salt is
is
produced only 50 km km from where I live that there is
is
a a a a a a a a a a a a a a small dairy 100 km km away a a a a a a a a a a a flour mill a a a a a a a a a a a large vegetable market and plenty of other exciting exciting things It was also exciting exciting to replace a a a a a a couple of of of ingredients: instead instead of of of chickpeas we we used yellow peas peas and instead instead instead of of of soy drinks drinks we we we used oat oat drinks drinks instead instead of of rice we we cooked oats barley or or some other Nordic cereal Join in in in this fun challenge and and let your imagination and and creativity run wild! /EMELIE
