this is both a tomato appreciation post AND a community appreciation post because these insanely gorgeous tomatoes were grown by Riverdale Neighborhood House, and then spontaneously photographed when our favorite moss media darling Eleanor happened upon Surge carrying the cases outside and then this morning they were transformed into this beautiful dish by brianmadebx and he flagged me down at The Grounded Movement a few doors down to make sure i knew about it. THIS is what community centered food looks like and i love it so much. we hope you do too 🍅💚

so excited about this green shakshuka special using an ingredient i scooped up the minute i saw it for sale from La Boîte

SHEEP + GOAT’S MILK YOGURT STONE, otherwise known as jameed or kishk.

it’s well known at this point how much we love to ferment and preserve at moss but this was a method i’d never heard of before and had to learn more!

as La Boîte describes: “one of the oldest forms of dairy preservation in the world. handmade in small batches by a bedouin cooperative in the eastern mediterranean desert. pure goat and sheep’s milk. salt. sun. nothin else.”

try it today on two farm eggs poached in spinach, chiles and herbs!
