Greens and Peanut Stew
This is one my go-to farm share recipes, particularly early in the season when the cooking greens are flowing fast. You can use any and all of them in this dish and it will cook down, resulting in a yummy nutritional powerhouse. It’s also easy to modify based on what you have handy, and I [...]

Stuffed Shells
Is the food blog back? We’ll see, but for now, here’s something: my first ever stuffed shells! I’ve been wanting to make these for a while and finally assembled all the ingredients. The roasted tomato awesomesauce was part of the large quantity I put by in the freezer last summer, the chard was from the [...]

Easy Refrigerator Pickles (Two Ways)
I love pickles and I always have. As a Jew and a native New Yorker, it is in both my nature and nurture so shouldn’t surprise anyone. Perhaps more surprising in that I’ve rarely actually made them and thus far never made my favorites, but we start simple and work our way up. These two [...]

Corn Soup (Two Ways)
For about a month, I was getting a lot of corn with my farm share. Ah, those were the days! With 12-24 ears to work with, I could make anything. Anything! Well, anything involving corn. On the left is Chipotle Corn Soup (or maybe it needs a better name?) and is something I came up [...]

Salsa Verde (Tomatillo Salsa)
For a few weeks, we’ve been getting tomatillos in the farm share and, as strangely cool as these weird little things with their papery husks are, I didn’t really know what to do with them. Once had a couple of pints (which later turned into three), I knew something had to be done so I [...]

Rootkes
Some years back, DD’s mother passed along a recipe for Passover “rootkes”, aka latkes but with assorted root vegetables other than potato (more recently, I ran across a similar recipe on PPK). Since I’d already shredded a boatload of farm share beets, rootkes seemed the obvious choice, especially since I also had the share potatoes, [...]

Oven-Roasted Vegetables
This is one of my staple dishes. It’s easy to make and works with any number of veggies, so it’s great for using up whatever might be around in a simple, healthy way. The only things I pretty much *always* include are onions and garlic. It’s gone over very well at potlucks and barbecues, too. [...]

Baba Ghanoush
I’ve been getting eggplant in my farm share (ir)regularly and though I’d take a shot at baba. I recall enjoying the dish when I was a kid, but on my second trip to Israel, when I worked as a volunteer, we were fed eggplant (usually roasted and mashed in some baba variant) just about EVERY [...]

Beet Carrot Salad
For a few weeks, I was receiving tons of beets with my farm share. One day I decided to shred a dozen or so, which sent me from wondering what to do with beets to wondering what to do with shredded beets. Inspiration came from pondering other available produce, which included farm share spring onions [...]

Rosemary & Caramelized Onion Focaccia
On a beautiful summer day, I wanted some freshly baked bread so decided it was time to take my first shot at focaccia. I searched many recipes and ended up combining aspects of several of them. The result was not quite the texture I was aiming for, but it was still light, flavorful, and delicious. [...]
