Tuesdays With Dorie: Baking With Julia- Blueberry Crostata

Although this was to be a raspberry and fig crostata, I decided to create a blueberry filling instead for this months TWDBWJ. The crust was cookie like and needed to be rolled out on parchment paper and peeled from the paper. A tad of a fussy crust. For all the fuss, I did not think the crust was that great. Way to overpowering. Would I make this again? Most likely not. I prefer a very good pie crust

instead.

Garlic Questions

I planted garlic for the first time and had a wonderful crop of Music garlic. It is a hardneck  and I would like suggestions for other hardneck garlics I should consider growing in Southern Ohio. Thanks as always for your words of wisdom.
