Sweet Pea's is getting ready for Farm to Table Dinner

Medway Chef, Krista Maloney, founder of Sweet Pea's Catering, is prepping for this weekend’s Medway Community Farm “Farm to Table Dinner”. Using all produce from the farm, she begins creating this 100 person dinner.

 

 

This is the 2nd year Krista has catered this event. She creates a unique menu celebrating all the flavors of the farm

 

 

For the first course, Carrot Ginger Soup with Honey Thyme Yogurt & Pine nuts will be served.

 

 

Krista’s father, Paul, a big supporter of hers also lends his hand in the kitchen.

 

 

Krista places the eggplants carefully over the flames to get charred.

 

 

 

 

Eggplants now perfectly charred. The skin will be discarded while the tender inside will be scooped out to make a vegetarian option of zucchini noodles and eggplant meatballs with slow roasted tomatoes & peppers.

 

 

 

 

 Krista is also using local beef, provided by Lilac Hedge Farm in Berlin. On the menu: Middle Eastern Spiced Beef with slow roasted tomatoes & peppers.

 

 

Onions to be caramelized for a pizzetta.
