Winter CSA session two already?

We are excited to be able to offer pears from Brownfield Farm this week. I am including a couple of my family favorite recipes this week.

Pear-And-Apple Crisp

2 tsp unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup plus 2 tbsp all-purpose flour, divided
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup plus 2 tbsp sugar, divided
8 tbsp (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 cup crushed amaretti cookies
3/4 cup sliced almonds
7 ripe au jour pears, peeled
2 apples peeled
3 tbsp almond-flavored liqueur


Heat oven to 350. Butter 13" x 9" x 2" baking dish with 2 tsp butter. In medium bowl combine 1 cup flour, brown sugar and 1/3 cup sugar. With a fork mash butter into flour until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cookies and almonds. Cut ears and apples into chunks, and toss with remaining flour and sugar in large bowl. Add liqueur; toss well. Spoon into prepared dis; sprinkle with topping. Bake 45 min., or until fruit is tender and topping is golden brown. Serve warm .


Sauteed Broccoli

3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
1 pound broccoli, trimmed and florets and stalks cut crosswise
salt and freshly ground black pepper

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. And the onion and garlic, stirring often, until the onion is soft and lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Add the broccoli and toss well to mix with the onion and oil. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook until the broccoli is tender but still green and still has a little texture, about 10 minutes.
Season to taste with slat and pepper and serve.
