Still quite green and I think that’s a good thing, this being the year I embraced salads.
This week’s share from my 2013 Sport Hill Farm CSA was:
- 1 head of red leaf lettuce
- 1 head of green lettuce
- 1 endive
- 2 kohlrabi
- 2 heads of broccoli
- 1 bunch of garlic scapes
- 1 bunch of curly kale
- 1 head of Napa cabbage
- 1 bunch of Swiss chard
- 1 bag of lettuce mix
Big take this week—nature must like us. I was very excited to see the broccoli, one of my favorites. I was also grateful for the garlic scapes, having run out of garlic except for the dried kind and sometimes you need garlic flavor that’s not a powder. I’m happy about the Napa cabbage too because I really liked Patti’s Nana’s dressing recipe (recipe in Week 1).
I “julienned” the kohlrabi and tossed it with my salad for a nice flavor contrast and some crunch. Why is julienned in quotes? Because I’m fairly certain the pieces should have been the size of matchsticks and not fatwood.
