CSA Farm Share 2011: Week 12

(Once again, a week behind. Sigh.)
  • 4 pounds Tomatoes
  • 2 bunches Carrots
  • 2 bunches Parsley
  • 2 bunches Broccoli
  • 6 Cubanelle Peppers
  • 6 Zucchini
  • 2 Eggplants
  • 2 lbs Green Beans
    =~23#? (forgot to jot it down at the time)
Finally got the last of the old summer squash into the dehydrator. At least this week's aren't the size of kiddie baseball bats like last week. And yay for more broccoli and tomatoes!

Did a batch of roasted tomato sauce. So yummy, though it does yield much less than stovetop methods, so the grand total was a little over three quarts, mostly in half-pint jars since one of those will do two pizzas. (And some of it went on pizza at the Beach House, woo!)

Also big batch of eggplant caponata nomnomnom. Haven't yet determined if it will freeze well, but if so, more will likely follow.

And of course, more bruschetta.

please tell me if your caponata freezes well because for some reason that idea never occured to me and caponata is the bestest. stuff. ever.
I bet it would, too, unless the eggplant turns weird texturally.

Well, I froze a small amount for a couple of days then let it thaw in the fridge for about a day. If it was different from the un-frozen leftovers, I could not detect it. Woohoo!
