Veggie Notes and Recipe links:

Carrots – not your average store bought carrot! These may be smaller but deliciously sweet and bursting with carrot flavor. So yummy, you might just eat all of them raw just give them a scrub. These smaller carrots have thinner skin. Can also be added to soups and roasted veggies.

Beets – ideas in the vegetable directory; small beets do not need to be peeled but scrubbed; how to boil beets, roasted, braised

Komatsuna – Asian green -steamed and seasoned with soy sauce, stir fries, raw, pickled, salads, or soups

Celeriac – aka Celery Root – must be peeled; shredded, sliced thin, diced in soup, boiled and mashed with potato, braised stove top-smashed celeriac recipe, remoulade-recipe below

Red Cabbage – salads, roasted, shredded -slaw or tacos, 16 recipes for red cabbage

Purple Daikon Radish – salads, slaw, thin slice raw, shredded onto salads, pickled, kimchi, roasted, Daikon Au Gratin, Purple Daikon Radish Salad – scroll down

Peppers – Bell pepper surprise! Joe cleaned out the hoophouse and found a bounty of peppers still on the plants. All peppers can be sliced, diced and frozen without blanching

Kale – salads, added chopped to soups or mashed potato, pesto, quick sauté with garlic

5-Minute Stir Fry Sauce – PRINTABLE PDF – I use some variation of this at least once a week! Scroll down

POTATO STORAGE: We are aware that some of you have a lot of potatoes in storage. Here are some tips: keep the longest when stored in a cool, dark place—specifically somewhere that has a cold temperature of about 50°F and 90 to 95 percent humidity,
1. Keep Them Out Of The Sunlight (But Not Out Of Sight).
2. Make Sure They Still Have Airflow
3. Don’t Store Them Next To Your Onions
4. Avoid Warm Spots
