Lettuce, as the earliest and most unpretentious green crop, has always been held in high esteem by gardeners. Most gardeners usually start spring planting by sowing lettuce, parsley and radishes. Recently, the desire for healthy eating and a large selection of greens in supermarkets have forced gardeners to think about which of these plants can be grown in their beds? In this article we will talk about nine of the most interesting, in our opinion, varieties of salad.

Carrots come in different colors: orange, white, yellow, purple. Orange carrots are dominated by beta-carotene and lycopene, the yellow color is due to the presence of xanthophylls (lutein); White carrots have a lot of fiber, and purple ones contain anthocyanin, beta and alpha carotenes. But, as a rule, gardeners choose carrot varieties for sowing not by the color of the fruit, but by the timing of their ripening. We will tell you about the best early, middle and late varieties in this article.

We recommend a fairly easy pie recipe with a delicious chicken and potato filling. An open pie with chicken and potatoes is an excellent hearty dish that is suitable for a hearty snack; it is very convenient to take a couple of pieces of this pastry on the road.

It is enough to slightly cool the baked goods and you can start tasting.

The long-awaited spring for many indoor plants is the period of the start of active growing season, and for most - the return of their decorative properties.

You can easily prepare homemade Easter cake with cottage cheese and candied fruits, even without any pastry experience. You can bake Easter cake not only in a special form or in a paper mold. For your first culinary experiences (and more), I advise you to take a small cast-iron frying pan. Easter cake in a frying pan will not turn out as high as in a narrow pan, but it never burns and is always well baked inside! Cottage cheese dough made with yeast turns out airy and aromatic.

It is also interesting because its fruits (pumpkins) are used for food by young, not ripe ones (greens). This means that you don’t have to wait for the harvest to ripen, and from late spring to autumn you can have fresh vegetables on your menu. In your garden beds, it is better to grow varieties and hybrids of zucchini that are resistant to diseases and changes in weather conditions. This eliminates unwanted treatments and allows you to get a harvest in any weather. It is these varieties of zucchini that will be discussed in this article.

In the middle zone, April is the time when the first flowering of plants in gardens and parks begins. The constant soloists of the spring that has come into its own are the bulbous primroses.

The main riot of beautifully flowering ornamental shrubs occurs in the month of May, and most of them, as a rule, bloom in mid-May.

Salad “Uzbekistan” with green radish, boiled meat and eggs is a classic dish of Uzbek cuisine, known to many since the times of the USSR. In any Uzbek restaurant you could order this simple but very tasty salad with meat and radish as an appetizer.

You can diversify the taste a little and add finely chopped cilantro, parsley and a pod of red chili pepper.

When used correctly, teas and infusions from these plants help cope with stressful situations, improve mood, eliminate or reduce nervous overexcitation. In this article we will talk about nine of the most interesting, in our opinion, medicinal plants that can be grown on the site without much difficulty.

Fragrance is not the most important feature and is not at all associated with orchids. But for some species and individual varieties, the smell is a significant addition to their main “image”. Favorite sweets, confectionery and spicy aromas are not uncommon among orchids. Vanilla aromas or more original spices in the scent notes give the delightfully bright flowers even more exotic. And you can choose spicy fragrant orchids from both popular and rare species.

Easy pear and nut muffins - sweet, juicy and delicious! The birthplace of muffins is considered to be Great Britain and America. In England, such muffins are made from rich yeast dough, in America from buttery yeast-free dough, which is loosened with baking soda or baking powder, or both at the same time. The basic muffin recipe looks something like this: 200 g flour, 200 ml milk or kefir, 100 g eggs, 100 g butter, baking powder and soda.

What does it take to get a good potato harvest? Many gardeners will say - good seed material, fertile soil, timely watering and fertilizing. But there is one negative factor that can significantly reduce the potato yield, despite the fulfillment of the above conditions - weeds. On plantations overgrown with weeds, it is not possible to obtain a rich potato harvest, and repeated weeding is one of the most labor-intensive procedures in caring for the crop.

Some of the summer residents are lucky and they acquire an estate with several mature spreading trees that create shade and cozy corners. But our new dacha had virtually no such plantings. And the half-empty area behind the chain-link mesh turned out to be completely open to prying eyes. That's why this interesting design arose, which meets the specific requirements of our family. I think our experience in constructing multifunctional plant supports will be interesting to you too.

There is probably not a single housewife who has not baked charlotte with apples at least once. And in the autumn season, when beautiful fruits are literally lying under your feet, this is the most popular dessert in families.

It doesn’t happen every once in a while, but last fall we had an incredible supply of apples. I dried them (I even bought an electric dryer for this occasion), froze them, prepared filling for pies from them, cooked jam and, of course, baked apple pies in different variations. With shortbread dough, for fasting days and charlotte in different versions.

The classic composition includes simple ingredients: eggs, flour, sugar and apples. But we girls are an inventive people, and for variety we add other products - bananas, cottage cheese, nuts, lemon, semolina and much more.

The first time I froze apples, I was afraid that I had spoiled the product. It turned out that I was afraid in vain. They make excellent cottage cheese casseroles and sponge pies. Moreover, under the influence of temperature, the fruits literally spread out, become soft, tender and simply melt on the tongue. I liked the taste much better with frozen ones than with regular ones. Both fresh and frozen apples are suitable for all recipes.

• Kefir – 250 g
• Sugar – 2 tbsp.
• Salt - a pinch

Place in the oven, temperature 180 g, 45-60 minutes. The time depends on the features of the oven and the size of the mold. It took a little longer with frozen apples. About an hour and fifteen. Cool slightly, turn it onto a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar through a sieve. I didn’t even have time to take a picture of the cross section - we ate it all at once.

The classics are the basis on which you can prepare countless variations. And the apple pie will sparkle in a new way. I used to hate cinnamon.

• Flour – 160 g
• Sugar – 200 g

• Cinnamon -1 tsp.

• Sift the flour and cinnamon into a bowl and carefully combine
• We send the chopped apples, mix and place in the prepared form.
• Bake at 180 degrees for 30-45 minutes. Check with a toothpick. We pierce in several places. If it comes out dry, the cake is ready.

Lenten pie with apples without eggs

I baked this pie during Lent. My husband’s birthday sometimes falls during this period, and we always invite guests. And there will definitely be friends who observe this custom. So for them I bake this Lenten pie with apples.

Products:

• Flour – 1 tbsp.
• Semolina – 1 tbsp.
• Sugar – 1 tbsp.

• Baking powder – 1 tsp.
• Apples - 5 -7 pcs.

• Grate the apples or chop them finely

• Melt the margarine in the microwave. If you are not fasting, take oil

• We put a layer of the dry mixture in the mold, cover it with apples on top, then repeat all the layers until the products run out. Apples need to cover this apple pie

• Pour the melted butter evenly throughout the pan. Shake it a little so that the products are better distributed and put it in an already preheated oven at 200C for an hour. After 15-20 minutes, check to see if the top layer is burning. If so, cover with foil or baking paper.

If you are afraid that the pie will turn out to be greasy and oily, then you are in vain. It contains a lot of dry ingredients that will absorb fat and swell.

The pie was eaten not only by those on duty, but by all the other guests too. Moreover, I baked it more than once and we ate it both cold and hot. Delicious either way.

• Low-fat sour cream will make the pie sour - again, not right.

We probably don’t have a family where they don’t make such a pie with the beautiful name “Charlotte”. I was sure that the name was connected with France. But it turned out that the classic charlotte with apples has more to do with England. Like many popular dishes, charlotte has several versions of its origin. My favorite is the romantic love story of an English cook who falls in love with a girl with the beautiful name Charlotte. To win her heart, he came up with a very tasty dessert and gave it the name of his beloved. And yet, according to most culinary specialists, the name of the dessert comes from the English charlyt, which means a dish made from beaten eggs, milk and sugar. Charlotte was prepared as a cold dessert from slices of bread soaked in syrup, butter, eggs with milk and even wine, which were placed in a special form and alternated with fruit.

Later, at the beginning of the 19th century, the French chef Marie Antoine Carême came up with a new dessert called Russian charlotte - Charlotte Russe. Instead of bread, he lined the mold with savoiardi cookies, and filled the middle with Bavarian cream with gelatin. The interesting thing is that this dessert was most liked not in Russia, but in America.

And in Russia, over time, this pie turned into a biscuit pie with apples. Classic charlotte with apples is one of the most popular pies. More than one generation has grown up with it; I started making this pie myself when I was 10-12 years old. Its popularity is explained by the availability of products, because apples, eggs and flour were in our kitchen even in times of shortage. During this time, a lot of charlotte recipes have been invented, each housewife adds her own “zest” to this recipe. But no matter what recipe we cook with, the result is almost always excellent.
