Week 2
Here are some of the items you may be
receiving in your delivery this week:
French Breakfast Radish, Tatsoi,
Arugula, Rhubarb, Hakuri Turnip, Red Choy, Swiss Chard, “Ella Kroft” Head
Lettuce, “Speckles” Head Lettuce
Hello Everyone,
The first “fruit” of the season has
arrived, Rhubarb. Pies, compotes and many other desserts are possible with this
one. The boys and I prefer easy so we go with stewed. Wash and chop it up, throw
it in a pot with some sugar and a little water on medium heat. Stir often and
once it’s softened check for desired sweetness. Wonderful on oatmeal, biscuits
and of course ice cream.
Hakuri Turnips are an anticipated
arrival. The turnip bulbs are wonderful sliced up raw in a salad or steamed.
The turnip greens come out a a fabulous side dish sautéed. Tatsoi (green spoon
shaped leaves), swiss chard and red choy are usually steaming greens as well.
Try mixing them together!
If you have any questions please feel
free to contact me.
Your Farmer,
Amber
