CSA Box Week of April 2
April 4, 2008 in CSA
I’m a bit late with this week’s CSA post and sadly I hopped to putting the veggies away so quickly this week that I neglected to snap a photo.
The most interesting item in the box this week is cardoons. Cardoons are actually the same species as the globe artichoke but a naturally occurring variant that look like long & sometimes much larger celery stalks. I’m anxious to cook these and see how they taste!
Our box this week contained:
- celery
- parsnips
- purple carrots – these are gorgeous!
- mustard greens
- spinach
- mixed salad
- erbette chard
- cardoons
- Meyer lemons – YUM!
Maybe I’ll even splurge on a dessert with those yummy Meyer lemons.
