borrowed photo, not actual recipe Happy week 3 of BaltimOrganic CSA!
What in the world is Kohlrabi? I'll be honest, I have very little idea of what I'm doing with the honor of creating and sharing these CSA recipes! I would say that we must have been drinking when Jon (our farmer), Gay, and I decided there should be a recipe to go with the weekly vegetable bag, but we don't actually drink (well, maybe just a tiny bit on occasion!) so I have no excuse expect that it seemed like a great idea! Maybe, like you, I'm learning as I go. I like to think we are all in this together and if you have recipes you'd like to share, send them along through my contact page and I'll post them with your name (or without your name if you don't want to be held accountable:))
This week's recipe is, for me, a little leap of faith (a term i use sometimes when I'm teaching); it's my experience that leaps in the direction of self growth usually result in greatness.
Serves about 4.
What you'll use from your bag:
What else you'll need:
First, Prepare:
Next:
And that's it! Prepare your food with love; it tastes better! :-)
