I’m in a Facebook cooking group and they do a theme challenge each month. April is Depression Era or Frugal. So I decided to go as cheap and gourmet as possible. Soldiers and eggs with dead nettle pesto.

Homemade: bread, butter Home raised: goose eggs Home foraged: pecans, dead nettles, wild garlic

I made a soft skin and a hard skin loaf because my wife likes a softer crust.

Paid for: Salt, pepper, EVOO, flour, yeast, heavy cream. Cost per person: $1.13

    I completely misread, lol. It’s never occurred to me that you could freeze them!

      For sure! After you steam them form them into little logs (ngl, they look like little shits) and freeze them. Then when you’re making a soup or curry or whatever, just throw one in.
