===================
-=> Quoting Dave Sacerdote to All <=-

 DS> Just got finished putting in most of the garden for this year:

 DS> Lovage - A hardy enough perennial that I shouldn't have to plant it
 DS> again.

An uncommon plant these days but a tasty one. It is an over
wintering perennial on Bill's farm and he is further north than you
are (the Ottawa Valley in Ontario.)

 DS> Also, we put in four high bush blueberry plants of different
 DS> varieties (they yield better when more than one type is
 DS> planted for cross pollination.)

You know they need really acidic soil, right?

      Title: Zucchini With Herb Sauce
 Categories: Herbs, Vegetables, Sauces
      Yield: 4 Servings

      1 lb Zucchini; sliced into
    1/2    inch thick rounds
    1/4 ts Pepper
    1/2 ts Lovage (or celery seeds)
    1/2 ts Coriander
    1/2 ts Savory
      1 sm Onion; diced
    1/4 c  Wine
      1 c  Broth
      1 tb Vinegar
      1 tb Olive oil
    1/2 ts Salt
      1 tb Flour
      1 ts Fresh thyme; chopped
      1 ds Black pepper

  Blanch the zucchini in water and drain or microwave on high,
  covered, for three minutes. Place the zucchini in a saucepan.
  Grind the pepper, lovage, coriander and savory. Add this mixture
  to the onion, wine, stock, vinegar and olive oil. Pour this sauce
  over the zucchini and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer,
  uncovered, stirring occasionally until the zucchini is tender,
  about seven minutes. Thicken the sauce with flour, simmering for
  five minutes more. Sprinkle with thyme and pepper.

... It is the most misunderstood and mysterious of herbs.
