In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of aubergines sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Almonds are eaten raw or roasted by the handful, sliced over yogurt and desserts, and ground into almond flour and almond milk. In Turkey, fresh green almonds called çağla are a spring street snack, dipped in salt and eaten whole.

Salted, honey-roasted and chocolate-coated almonds differ from plain ones, so pick the closest match when logging.
