This Week’s Box Featuring Carrots – Week of December 6

December 6, 2021 by Amy Buglione

This week we have carrots from Twin Bridge Farms

Oh how we love carrots!  They are a funny little root crop so that you never know what you’re going to get until you pull them out of the ground!  Usually orange in color, but sometimes they can be cosmic and come out purple, yellow, red or even white.  Packed with health-promoting beta carotene, they promote good vision, especially night vision, and help combat health-damaging free radical activity.

Preparation

Since carrots are root crops, make sure you scrub them well to get an residual dirt off of them.  Peeling off the skin is optional, I usually don’t because I’m lazy like that.  Grab a knife and chop away!  Or you can be more fancy pants like this guy!

This Week’s Box Featuring Spigarello – Week of November 8

November 8, 2021 by Amy Buglione

This week, we have spigarello from Ho Farms!

Spigarello is a primitive heirloom varietal of the broccoli family and is native to Southern Italy. Spigarello is a variety of leaf broccoli, is related to broccoli rabe, and looks like a cross between kale and broccoli. The taste is similar to broccoli, with the leaves having a mild taste and the texture is succulent and crunchy.

How to Prepare Spigarello:

It is recommended to trim the stems and the leaves can be enjoyed as a salad green, wilting green or soup green.
