Today Year Three harvested broadbeans and made broadbean dip to eat on crackers.
BROADBEAN DIP
Ingredients - broadbeans and salt
Method:
1 Pod broadbeans
2 Microwave for 2min on until outer layer splits
3 Double pod broads
4 Whizz in a food processor with salt until smooth
5 Serve on crackers
6 Dispose of pods into the compost or wormfarm
7 Save some pods to dry out so we have broadbeans to plant next year.
Constance "Picking them was really fun."
Carrie "I liked eating it"
Tino "The broadbeans on the cracker smelt like popcorn"
Awa "It tasted like avocado"
Coby "It looked like guacamole"
Josh " I have to say it was amazing"
Where do veges in the supermarket come from?
"All over the world" Eloise
"The shop owner grows it in their garden"
"They come from the earth"
"They come from farmers that grow them then they come in trucks" Audrey
We learnt about how vegetables get from market gardens to the supermarkets by reading this article Kumara Behind the Scenes.
Luca "From the market garden they put it in a truck to the packhouse and then into another truck to the distribution centre and then another truck to the supermarket"
There were alot more steps than straight from our Mara Kai! Also growing our own kai with our own compost with seeds we saved from last year is very cheap. And there are no trucks. Are there is no plastic packaging.
We wanted to make our broadbeans look fun and healthy to eat, so we came up with our own broadbean mascots.
