Week 5
Here are some of the items you may be
receiving in your delivery this week:
Red Choi, Golden Turnips with edible
tops, Shanghai Bok Choy, Kogane (lettuce), Radishes, Rainbow Swiss Chard
Hello Everyone,
We continue to enjoy a large
assortment of greens as always this spring and I am very excited to see the
Rainbow Swiss Chard come available.
In addition to the greens for
stirfry, saute and steaming we have an interesting fresh lettuce this week
called Kogane. This delicate lettuce is in the mustard family so it has a
little bit of a bitter bite at the end. Best paired with a cream or fatty
dressing.
Easy Warm Bacon Dressing
Fry bacon in a pan until crispy
remove and set on paper towels to drain then crumble. Take 3 tbsp of bacon fat
and place in a jar, add 3 tbsp red wine vinegar 1 tbsp of Dijon mustard. Whisk
together add the crumbled bacon and toss with your salad greens.
As for the turnips, the kids ate all
the fresh roots last night is less than 3 minutes raw while I was preparing the
tops to saute!
Other great news is the boys and I
found the first little green tomatoes of the season starting!
If you have any questions please feel
free to contact me. Enjoy!
Your Farmer,
Amber
