CSA Farm Share 2011: Week 10

[surrealestate]

And once again, I'm way behind. :( This is last week.

• 4 lbs Tomatoes (yay!)
• 2 pints Cherry Tomatoes (once again I took 1 red, 1 sungold)
• 2 bunches Radishes (beowabbit?)
• 8 Poblano Peppers
• 6 Japanese Eggplant
• 6 Cousa Squash
• 6 Cucumbers
• 2 bunches Beets (+greens)

Drying has finally begun in earnest! Did some of C's tomatoes and mm.. they're like candy. Right now a batch of cousa chip is finishing and I suspect they will be gone in short order. Must make more. More beet burgers happened too (with yet more to come), baingan bharta, and I also made some nummy Japanese-style cucumbers (of which there also needs to be more).

Yesterday we had a little jaunt to a friend's place to pick peaches, so that's going to have to be a project sometime this week. Oh, and I also did a batch of basil pesto this week of which some was eaten and the rest frozen.

And there has been lots and lots of fresh bruschetta:
1. Chop tomatoes, mince garlic
2. Mix with some salt and let sit a few minutes
3. Pour on a bunch of olive oil
4. Stir in chopped fresh basil
5. Serve on toasted baguette slices

Bruschetta--omgnom. I've missed your veggie porn posts. I suck at keeping up here...hope you are well:)

If you come over sometime with fresh tomatoes and a baguette (the latter easily obtainable two blocks away), I will make us some!
