Some of the most delicious & underrated vegetables are the first ones that come out of the field in the spring. We haven't invested in crops like asparagus and rhubarb in large enough quantities to give out in the CSA share yet, but we hope to do so in the years to come. Whenever possible, we will source these items locally to put in the CSA. On the list this week is organic BROCCOLI as well as our own GARLIC SCAPES, HEAD LETTUCE, GINGER, & BABY BOK CHOY. I don't know about you, but I'm thinking a fully local stir fry is sounding like a great menu option for this week! If you've never used (or head of) garlic scapes, they're a once-a-year spring treat that you can use however you'd use bulb garlic. Chop them up for a stir fry with some mushrooms, scallions, bok choy, and any other veggies you like and sauté with sesame oil, soy sauce....Grate in a small piece of frozen ginger if you enjoy the flavor of ginger. Garlic scapes also make a wonderful pesto in the food processor with olive oil, salt, (optional) parm and whatever seeds or nuts you have on hand. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to send us an email! Looking forward to seeing you this week! |
