Winter CSA, week 5

  • 12 small carrots (4-5" long)
  • one celeriac
  • six yellow Delicious apples (better for cooking, they say)
  • three medium golden potatoes
  • five small-medium red onions
  • two rutabagas (these are new to me)
  • one bunch arugula
  • one bunch hydroponic lettuce
  • one bag tatsoi (this is new to me)
  • two pounds cornmeal
  • one jar salsa
  • one piece "Kiss of Kerry" cheese, est. 8oz

None of the greens really look like arugula to me, but that's what the manifest says. I think the stuff in the zipper bag (the left-most batch) is the tatsoi, based on image searches.

The lettuce will become a salad (I still have some radishes for this, too), and the other greens will go into stir-fry, an omelette, or soup. Lots of this is good for roasting, and one of the celeriac recipes from last time was very good so I'll check my notes and do that again. There is cornbread in our future. Dani doesn't like applesauce (I learned tonight) but does like baked apples, which is what I've been doing with some of the other apples (also stuffing into squash). There's apple crisp or apple cobbler in our future too, and I might just make some applesauce for myself even if he doesn't want to share it. (I like applesauce!)
