Week 13 CSA Box

In your box this week, you'll find:
  • French Fingerling Potatoes - Try this recipe for Perfect Fingerling Potatoes. It is a lot of salt, I have made it w/ less and it still works out. After a couple minutes on the cooling rack they will sparkle with crystallized salt. Nothing else needed!
  • Salad Mix - We had a little problem counting this week (it's not as easy as you'd think after a morning in the field! :)) so a couple boxes are missing salad mix. To make up for it we added a second bag of arugula and some extra carrots for you.
  • Arugula - Arugula Pesto is great on pasta, shrimp, sandwiches or as a sauce for pizza.
  • Sweet Corn - Please forgive the ear worms, there is no good way to control them organically. If you notice some brown at the top of an ear just cut the top off and cook like normal. As one market customer told me her grandma used to say, "If the worms don't like it, why would I?"
  • Leeks - Sauté in butter and mix with your taters.
  • Carrots
  • Beefsteak Tomatoes - Our tomatoes are rapidly winding down but we though you should get a few more so we harvested these from our neighbor, Sandhill Organics' vines.
  • Hon Tsai Tai - Delicious lightly sautéed with olive oil and garlic, or added at the end of your favorite stir fry. Eat the stems (except the thickest part at the bottom) and greens, its all tasty!
  • Acorn or Delicata Squash
  • Garlic
  • Onions
