Quick Tips & Ideas:
- Snow Peas – eat the whole pea, just trim off the stem, great for dipping or adding to salads raw, cook very quickly – just until they turn bright green but are still crunchy – do not overcook; can be blanched and frozen
- Garlic Scapes – mild garlic flavor, can be sliced thin and added to anything you want some garlic flavor, great in pesto, stir-fry; can be sliced thin and frozen, CREAMY GARLIC SCAPE DRESSING
- Mustard Greens – spicy greens, can be eaten raw or cooked; not recommended for smoothies
- Basil: cold sensitive, may turn black if too cold in fridge; use promptly
- Wash your produce at home? Yes! We do give many items a rinse at the farm. However, we still recommend that you wash your veggies at home before eating.
- Please do not leave your veggies in your car = wilted greens 🙁 – this will greatly reduce how long they last.
- It’s stir-fry season: Use up your Asian greens, turnip & radish https://kristineskitchenblog.com/stir-fry-sauce/
- Your greens are wrapped in paper to help cut down on our plastic usage. They can be stored in the paper but will loose moisture over time. You may wish to move to proper storage.
