Here are some ways we've been enjoying our share produce:
- Cabbage: cut in half or quarter, cut out core/stem, put in a baking pan/dish with butter or coconut oil or olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and any other spice of your choosing, bake at 375 for about an hour or until soft.
- Miscellaneous roots/radicchio: grate a variety of roots including radishes, turnips, kohlrabi, celeriac, beets onto a plate and into separate piles and add to a mixed greens salad; chicken stock soup.
- Potatoes/Sweet Potatoes: chop into french fries; lather with olive oil, coconut oil, or lard; spread on cookie sheet; sprinkle with salt, pepper, or another spice; and roast at 375 for about an hour or until crispy. Broiling at the end will help crisp. A good coating of oil/lard will keep them from sticking to sheet.
- Kale: breakfast smoothies with fennel, frozen strawberries, and dairy kefir.
- Leeks: chicken stock soup with miscellaneous roots and greens.
- Carrots: pure snacking!
- Radicchio: breakfast smoothies with fennel, frozen strawberries, and dairy kefir; salad.
