This week we received tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, scallions and arugula.
The Elysian Fields Farm CSA is back in action after their August break. This week we received tomatoes and peppers, fairy tale eggplant, red onions and a nice butternut squash.
A delicious all-around potato that is beautiful and nutritious? Yes, that’s the terra rosa. Pink skin and pink flesh deliver beauty and antioxidants. Terra rosa works well baked, boiled and fried. And, yeah, they are delicious.
Raw ratatouille! Japanese eggplant, zucchini, sweet peppers and a double sized batch of tomatoes.
Jimmy Nardello chile peppers are a special variety of Italian style frying peppers with outstanding flavor that are worth seeking out. You’re not likely to find them in a regular grocery. Hopefully that motivates you to look at your local farmers’ markets in the second half of the summer through early autumn.
Pepper season has begun! This week our CSA share includes Japanese eggplant, zucchini, zephyr squash, arugula, sun gold tomatoes and a mix of sweet peppers.
Four of the five items in this week’s CSA delivery are new this year. Blueberries, potatoes, komatsuna and sungold cherry tomatoes. We also received some pretty Japanese eggplant.
Summer is rolling on. Tomatoes every week! And zucchini, Japanese eggplant, shishito peppers and a yellow onion.
This week’s CSA delivery is pure summer: tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant and summer squash.
By the calendar, summer is officially here. Tomatoes, cucumbers and shishito peppers are summer staples. We also got some red onions and purple carrots.
These potatoes have such stunning, deep purple color. They are great all-around potatoes. Any dish you would make with Yukon golds can be made with Blackberry potatoes. But the result will be more nutritious and more whimsical.
Look at that tomato in the center, one pound two ounces of heirloom goodness! Also a bunch of mixed beets, a bunch of purple carrots, four nice sized zucchini and a bag of green beans.
