Please take a moment to look at the video that our incredibly talented Slow Food NYC intern, Julia Kelly, made for us this summer at Ujima Garden. Enjoy and share the link with friends!
Save the date! Slow Food NYC will be holding its annual fundraiser and experience auction, The (S)low Down, on Wednesday, November 16th at 6:30pm at the fabulous Invisible Dog Gallery in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn.
Our group at Ujima is always up for trying new recipes—no matter how sophisticated a palate one might think a dish requires! When we made gazpacho the other day we weren’t sure whether the cold soup would be popular with the kids, but they all gave it a try and nearly everyone was a fan. Today we made California rolls–wrapping carrots, crab, avocado, and cucumber in seaweed with sticky rice. Perhaps an even bigger hit than the food itself (which, don’t get me wrong, was very well received as usual) were the chopsticks that we all used.
