Red scallions


We had a week off after our first, early shipment, but now the CSA season has begun in earnest! In our share this week we had about five large rhubarb stalks, a gorgeous bunch of mint, a bunch of red scallions, half a pound of cremini mushrooms, one head of green leaf lettuce, one head of green romaine, a container of itty-bitty baby radish greens, and a bag of mesclun mix (not pictured). After spending a few months eating produce that comes either from the freezer or from the grocery store, I always forget how beautiful straight-from-the-farm vegetables can be. I have a notion of documenting this year's share in photographs, but weekly pictures of vegetables might get boring in short order--both for me and for you! So who knows? This week there are photos; next week, we'll see.

And a question for you, friends: if you suddenly received an absolutely gorgeous, out-of-this-world fragrant bunch of mint, what would do with it? How would you really show off its flavor?

Second shipment - 5/19/11

At least I know I'll have one interested audience-member, anyway! :) I don't think I'll set a "CSA photo every week" goal--rigid schedules tend not to work very well for me--but I'll certainly take veggie pictures whenever I feel inspired.

Thanks for the mint chutney suggestion!
