Sourwood – Great Honey and Fall Color
SUMMARY: Sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum) stands out in landscapes with its arching habit, white flowers, and vibrant fall foliage. Known also as Sorrel Tree and Lily-of-the-Valley Tree, it has acidic leaves and elegant, white inflorescences. Scientifically named for its acidic properties (oxys) and the term for tree (dendron), Sourwood has various uses. Native Americans used its parts for medicinal remedies, and its wood is used for handles. Sourwood honey, produced mainly in the Appalachian region, is highly valued. Despite its limited presence in the deep south, its nectar supports pollinators, and the tree remains a favored native species for its beauty and adaptability.

SUMMARY: Craving an Italian sub, I decided to make one at home since the nearest restaurants are far. The key is finding good bread with a crunchy crust, and local options like Henry’s Café, Le Bakery, and Rouses provide decent choices, though I prefer to hollow them out slightly. For the filling, classic ingredients include lettuce, tomato, onions, mayo, pepperoni, capocollo, genoa salami, and cheeses like provolone or taleggio. For a budget-friendly sub, I’d recommend veggies, pepperoni, and seared mortadella with a drizzle of olive oil and a quick oven warm-up to melt the cheese. Don’t skimp on the meat!
