Naan Breads are a soft pillowy flatbread native to India and parts of South and west Asia. Yogurt is added to the dough t give it its unique flavor and soft tender texture. These breads are cooked in a special oven called a tandoor. However, you can make them in a cast iron skillet, too. The garlic and cilantro gives these breads a wonderful flavor. The soft, chewy texture is hard to beat. I will use these naan breads to make Fish Gyros with a yogurt sauce. So delicious!!
Bright red juicy strawberries herald the arrival of spring. They are one of the most versatile berries and the most widely cultivated. They are featured in many dishes and are one of the easiest fruits to grow. My garden has always had a large strawberry patch much to my children’s dismay. They hated the weeding but when they berries were ready the patch became much more likeable. June-bearing are my favorite kind to plant. Homegrown strawberries have the most flavor simply because the sugar converts to starch soon after they being picked.
