Traditional CSA boxes Session 3 week 3
It is cold and dry on the farm this week. Cold enough in fact that we still have a few patches of snow left over from a week ago. Your boxes this week are still filled with a variety of produce, despite the weather. Mache, our hearty winter green is featured in your boxes again this week. Here is a mache recipe that Molly put together for our newsletter last week. Molly also had some wonderful tips for enjoying this mild winter green. To trim your mache means to remove any dirty roots and separate the individual leaves. She suggests being gentle with it as you trim and toss because it is easily bruised. I have noticed that Brussels Sprouts are a favorite among our CSA customers. The small and medium boxes are receiving them this week. Click here for another of Molly's delicious, quick and easy recipes that will make a Brussels Sprout lover out of almost anyone. Purple broccoli is the special treat this week for the large shares. It is a very limited supply, this is one product that will not be making it to market this season. Hope you Enjoy!
