Fall CSA # 11 November 16
Good morning everybody! Well, the Fall season is winding down and next week will be your last basket in this 12 week membership. This week we got a good portion of our garlic planted and i made a big batch of red hot sauce which needs to sit for 2-3 weeks before i decide if i am happy with the flavor after which it will go out in the store. People keep asking us if things are slowing down now...not at all! Lots of little projects are getting attention and with the limited daylight hours they seem to take longer.
In your basket this week:
2 bags of Chez Nous Salad Mix
1 bag of spicy China Rose winter radishes
1 bag of carrots
1 bag of gorgeous Kale mix
In your Salad Mix this week, I added a few new items: small strips of sorrel which has a sour lemony taste, some mint and some strips of very purple Flower Sprout Leaves- they are so sweet and delicious!
As for the winter radishes, the recipe that i shared in CSA#8 newsletter for radish top soup really surprised me- it was delicious and even my son loved it! I realize that there aren't as many leaves on the radishes at this point since we remove any that have had frost damage but it's still worth a try! I love radishes in salad as well as roasted. I made the allrecipes version for my soup but used the food and style recipe for the roasting of the veggies.
