CSA Week 11
I am going to use this upcoming long weekend to get back in to a place where I’m not constantly trying to catch up.
Here’s what we got last week:
ed Sails Leaf Lettuce-2 heads
Romaine-1 head
Edamame-1 bunch
Opal Basil-1 bunch
Tomatoes-3 pounds
Sun Gold Cherry Tomatoes-1 pint basket
Pablano Peppers-4, mildly hot
Green Bell-4
Biscayne-4
Black Bell Eggplant-1
Potatoes-1 quart
Rosemary-1 bunch.
Shiro Plums, Red Clapp Pears, Peaches
Last night I made an amazing pasta dish with the eggplant and fresh tomato puree made from the last of the CSA tomatoes and some of the uglier tomatoes from my garden. I had a bunch split on the vine, not sure if it’s from too much sun or too much rain or something else entirely, but what’s ugly eatin makes delicious sauce. The plums were very good but they don’t hold a candle to the amazing peaches and pears. We’re going to get a freezer so that we can preserve some of this bounty and better deal with the load.
