CSA: Week Eight
From the week seven share, I tried fava beans for the first time last week and I would highly recommend them to anyone that hasn't. They take a bit of handling to prepare but cook quickly and are delicious unadorned. They have a nice, buttery mashed potato texture and taste. They're also quite a brilliant green underneath all those layers.
Here's the week eight share, half of which is already gone:
- wild mint, proudly sacrificed to a batch of juleps over the weekend
- green peppers
- eggplant
- snap beans
- zucchini and summer squash
- red scallions (below)
- lettuce
- cherry tomatoes
