This week we had to do a lot of cooking, storing, and preserving of our CSA box. That is because we are going to be out of town (and the country) for the next 10 days. More on that tomorrow.
Once we got home from the farmers market with our box, K got right to work making a pepper sauce and a tomato sauce. We sliced the corn off the cob and froze that for later.
What We Bought:
- From our CSA in Marengo, IL
- Honey Crisp apples
-
Mixed Cherry tomatoes
-
Roma beans
-
Sweet colored peppers
-
Eggplant
-
Korean or tropical melon
-
Mirai Sweetcorn
-
Leek
-
White kennebec potatoes
- From Local Foods
- Bread
- Chicken
- Sausages
- Sprecher’s root beer (yum!)
- A soft pretzel
- Onion
What We Learned:
- K is really good at accidentally making tomato soup. He originally was going for making a sauce with all the tomatoes we got, but it ended up being really amazing.
- There are still some veggies we have to freeze or give away!
