Season Extension Week 1; October 4, 2018
Kale
Arugula
Cilantro
beets
green onions
carrots
sweet dumpling and/or delicata squash
salad turnips with greens
potatoes
brussel sprouts
onions
Notes on the box.
Take the potatoes out of the plastic bag for storage. Store in a paper bag in a cool dry place out of the fridge.
Onions, Garlic, and Winter Squash should also be stored out of the fridge.
Remove the tops from the salad turnips. They are edible and are good cooked with the turnips.
Winter Squash should keep for many weeks and makes a nice fall decoration until you are ready to eat it.
The greens are all frost sweetened and so yummy. The kale is a nice tender variety that cooks down pretty quickly. Hope you enjoy it!
The skin of the sweet dumpling is not edible. It’s best as a stuffing squash.
Cosmic Wheel Creamery Cheese Shares.
This week we have an aged Jack style cheese called Aquilla. It’s a favorite to pair with your favorite beer.
Also included is our feta. To store feta for longer you can make a brine to store it in. 2 tsp of salt in 2 cups of water. We love it on pizza or a beet and arugula salad.
