(2017) Buttermilk Green Onion Dressing

Published at 05/25/2017 In Category Blog, Lettuce, Onions, Recipes Tags: beet greens, green onion

Sort of a takeoff of ranch dressing but with fewer herbs. You can add anything you like, of course, but finely chopped green onions (or the tender part of the greens from that big garlic head) are perfect. It might seem like overkill to have buttermilk, sour cream AND mayonnaise in a dressing, but it works. Sorry I don’t remember where the original recipe came from. Works for your lettuce or if you want a more traditional mayo-based slaw. Just increase the recipe as needed for your greens.

(2017) Baked Greens Rice

Published at 05/22/2017 In Category Blog, Cabbage, Collards, Greens, Kale, Recipes Tags: cabbage, collards, greens, kale, Swiss chard

Another go-to recipe that works for all kinds of greens including cabbage. Fancier than the pasta, works great for a special dinner. Love the addition of dried fruit.

(2017) Wilted Greens Pasta

Published at 05/22/2017 In Category Blog, Bok Choy, Greens, Kale, Recipes Tags: bok choy, greens, kale

This is my go-to for any greens that show up in the box. Delicious with kale but amazing with cabbage. (If that bok choy from last week is still in the refrigerator, try it in this recipe.) Takes no longer to make than it takes to cook the pasta. No idea where I got this idea originally.

This is adapted from a recipe in Fine Cooking magazine.

(2017) Shallot Vinaigrette

This “fancier” version comes from Strippaggio, the olive oil and vinegar store at Emory Point.

With all that lettuce, you’re likely to make a salad. Please don’t use something from the store. Make your own!

(2017) Broccoli, Peanut and Fruit Salad

That head of broccoli is so sweet. Don’t cook it! Serve it raw in something like this salad.

(2017) Kale and Lettuce and Strawberry Salad

Published at 05/17/2017 In Category Blog, Kale, Lettuce, Recipes, strawberries, strawberries Tags: kale, lettuce, strawberries

So you’ll eat many of those strawberries just as they are but when you’re ready for a recipe, try this salad from Jenny Levison of Souper Jenny. Again, it’s adapted from a chef demo at the Peachtree Road Farmers Market.

(2017) Pickled Hakurei Turnips

Published at 05/17/2017 In Category Blog, Recipes, Turnips Tags: hakurei turnips, turnips

First, those turnips. Pickle them. Yes, everybody’s pickling and maybe you’re over it, but this nice recipe was demonstrated by Nick Leahy of Saltyard at the Peachtree Road Farmers Market and it’s really lovely. You could pickle your radishes, too. I love these slices in sandwiches. Crazy about them. When hakurei turnips get this big, that’s a perfect use.

Or just braise them in a little broth, maybe with some soy sauce? Ian Winslade of Morningside Kitchen did a demo doing that at the Morningside market last year. They were yummy. Add a little honey if the turnips seem at all bitter to you.

Spicy Sauerkraut

Published at 04/24/2017 In Category Blog, Cabbage, Carrots, Onions, Recipes Tags: cabbage, carrots, onions

One more idea for fermented vegetables. This is adapted from a recipe in Saveur magazine. It’s sort of like a mild kimchi – a nice compromise. The sterilized container part is important. You don’t want any funky bacteria messing up your sauerkraut.
