Ⓐ - Ⓩ 4. april - Ⓓ - Dild og Dome

Ⓓ er for dild og dome.
     I Uglemors dome gror der - som i resten af haven - en del ukrudt. Den eneste forskel er, at ukrudtet i domen mestendels er spiseligt. Det er nemlig dild. For mange år siden såede Uglemor et par uskyldige dildplanter inde i domen. De trivedes i det varme klima, blev store og kastede frø. Det år, vi var i Tyskland, groede der KUN dild i domen. Og lige siden har Uglemor hvert år haft dild til hele sommeren og dildfrø til at sylte landsbyens samlede agurkehøst, hvis det skulle være nødvendigt.

 Ⓓ is for dill and dome.

In MotherOwl's dome there's many weeds, as everywhere in the garden. But the weeds in the dome are of the edible variety. Many years ago MotherOwl planted a few dill plants there. They liked the hot, humid climate, and grew into giant dill plants with monstrous umbels. MotherOwl kept them at bay by picking the umbels before they matured. The dill is a vert tasty variety.
Then we lived in Germany for a year, and the dill thrived in the dome. Now we have enough dill for all summer, and enough to pickle all the cucumbers of our village and more.

  1. Is there a way to dry it and perhaps give away the excess? It certainly looks healthy and thriving.

    1. Yes, drying or as I do herbal salts are a great way of using the escess of the season. We never run out of dried dill in winter. And I give away and sometimes even sell bags of mixed herbal salts.
