CSA Farm Share 2011: Week 3

[surrealestate]

I've got everything I need for kimchi except the cabbage! Anyone with a different share get any cabbage (ideally Napa) and want to trade?

• 2 bunches Golden Beets (with greens)
• 2 bunches Asian Turnips (with greens)
• 2 heads Red Leaf Lettuce
• 2 bunches Carrots (yellow)
• 2 bunches Scallions
• 2 bunches Kohlrabi (with greens)
• 2 bunches Kale
• 1 lb Sugar Snap Peas
  = ~22.5#

As will hopefully become a habit, we cooked something using lots of the greens last night: peanut stew using the kohlrabi and turnip greens, as well as fava tendrils from last week. Which made for a huge amount even without the beet greens or kale. Helps everything fit in the fridge, anyway, and nummy. I also put in some of the carrots as well as previously-put-by jalapeño peppers, winter squash, and broth from the freezer.

No other preservation updates since last night's post. :)

We have an arrowhead cabbage we're unlikely to use, but we're also headed out of town tomorrow. Next time, maybe.
