Raspberries - I think I'll freeze some of these to use later.
Mini Sweet Peppers - Some will go into stir-fry, others into tonight's dinner of sausage & peppers, not sure about the rest yet.
Edamame - I really like them boiled as a snack. We are thinking of buying 10 pounds from the farm to freeze for the winter has anyone ever frozen edamame?
Yellow & Red Onions - Seems we use garlic & onions in almost everything. The red onions will go in sausage & peppers.
Adirondack Red Potatoes - Most likely I 'll roast some of these & a few others I'll mash with the Celeriac
Garlic - I'm thinking of using some of the garlic we've gotten to plant in my own garden for next year.
Green Savoy Cabbage - we'll use this in stir-fries & salads
Baby Bok Choy - Stir-fry
Cucumbers - Matt wants me to make up some more pickles.
French Orange Melon - We'll have it for breakfast with some mini cinnamon rolls
Zucchini - They say this is close to the last of the season for these. This one is destine for stir-fry
Japanese eggplant - This was our choice vegetable this week, we took one just for stir-fry.
Arugula - Some for salads & some for on pizza. I may blanch some to freeze.
Green Beans - Perhaps I'll pickle some of these.
Tomatoes - Perhaps a homemade pizza sauce one night.
Celeriac - I love this in a mash
Theres a recipe for arugula pesto that sounds good.
ReplyDeleteI so need to do this CSA next year. I have bene inquiring at the market to see who does it. I still need to learn more about it.
Lovely box!
ReplyDeleteI love Edamame with sea salt! I good and healthy snack!
Hi Kat -
ReplyDeleteI've never frozen edamame myself, but I buy it frozen all the time, so I'm sure you could do it. Probably freeze on sheets in one layer, then transfer to a bag.
Maybe blanch the edamame first? That's a fantastic looking box of produce. How exciting!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely probably want to blanch the edamame for a couple of minutes first. Kind of like you do when you freeze green beans. And I'd flash-freeze it on a cookie sheet and then put it in freezer bags or freezer containers. You get quite an assortment in your CSA, it all looks great!
ReplyDeleteI froze my edamame last year. I blanched them, then shelled them. I used them in vegetable soup and they were great.
