CSA Week #6 (2014)
This week:
I selected: lettuce shell peas zucchini green beans Napa cabbage beets
All prepped and ready. I separated, wash, spun and bagged the lettuce. The vacuum sealed jars of salad are the last of the lettuce from last week. I washed, dried and bagged the zucchini. I separated, washed and bagged the cabbage. I trimmed off the green and roots from the beets, washed and bagged. The beet greens I picked the best ones, washed, spun dry and bagged them, for possible use in a stir-fry.
I also shelled the peas and vacuum sealed them in a jar. And tipped and tailed the green beans and blanched them for 2 minutes in salted water before cooling and vacuum sealing. They went into the refrigerator for future meals, to be determined.
