(2019) Sweet Potato Salad

Published at 08/29/2019 In Category potatoes, Recipes, Sweet Potatoes Tags: potatoes, sweet potatoes

Looks like the box also held the first sweet potato of the season. And a white sweet potato at that. There recipes posted at https://grassfedcow.com/ingredient/sweet-potatoes/ that might be appealing. I thought I had shared a recipe for a cold sweet potato salad with curry seasoning, but I’m not seeing it there. I’ll have to find it when I get home. In the meantime, here’s a salad to consider – it combines sweet potatoes and red potatoes. The quantities of potatoes don’t matter. And the dressing is really good.

I’ve shared this recipe before but it’s worth repeating. Save it for when next week’s box when there will surely be a bundle of greens of some sort.

Demonstrated by Virginia Willis at the Peachtree Road Farmers Market. As she says, feel free to substitute with what’s in season and in your box. And she recommends the two pots specified here to keep the greens crisp..

(2018) Sweet Potato Green Onion Cakes

Published at 11/28/2018 In Category Recipes, Sweet Potatoes Tags: sweet potatoes

And finally a recipe from Southern Living. I’m seeing such pretty green onions at the markets that I’m looking for all kinds of ways to use them. They call for microwaving the potato – which is quick. But you could absolutely roast it, just not to melting since you want to be able to grate the potatoes. Just roast until barely tender.

(2018) Sweet Potatoes with Mirin and Honey

Published at 09/26/2018 In Category Recipes, Sweet Potatoes Tags: sweet potatoes

There are about a dozen sweet potato recipes at https://grassfedcow.com/ingredient/sweet-potatoes/, and you can adapt them if you like. I’m thinking about that pork, sweet potato and apple saute since maybe, just maybe, we’re going to have a little cooler weather and hallelujah, a few rain drops.

If you want to push them to the sweet side, try this recipe from Bon Appetit. No mirin? Try sherry or even port instead.

If you’re ready for a savory take on sweet potatoes, try this recipe from seriouseats.com. I’m making it next weekend for a dinner party, serving with a curried soup. Probably will heat up in a dry skillet rather than with the oil as suggested here.

If you feel like grilling on these fine cool evenings, how about this recipe from Fine Cooking? My one large sweet potato in today’s box will be plenty for this dish.

(2017) Scalloped Sweet Potatoes

Published at 10/05/2017 In Category Recipes, Sweet Potatoes Tags: sweet potatoes

Totally decadent, but a great way to use the giant sweet potato (at least mine was) in today’s box. From chow.com which adapted it from Southern Living. If yours was as big as mine, cut the potato into quarters before slicing. You want pieces that will fit in a muffin cup. Pretty individual servings. Fancy!
