In Doy’s garden

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

Sweetcorn boiled on the cob or as kernels, eaten with butter and salt, tossed into salads or stirred into rice. Boiled and grilled corn on the cob is a classic street snack in Turkish cities and by the sea.

These numbers are for the kernels you eat, not the cob, and a brush of butter adds on top.
