Sprouting toward spring

It's starting to look a lot like spring in our kitchen! Unfortunately January is still a little early for all the icy pots of dirt on our balcony to melt and let us start planting courgettes... But at least we can enjoy the little bit of green that these yummy pea shoots bring to the table. They are he only fresh and nutritious option around: the pale tomatoes and the tasteless cucumbers in the supermarket this time of the year are just too depressing!
