CSA Summer Harvest Week Three

In this week's share:

1) three stalks rhubarb: What to do with this? Look here.
2) one bunch deep purple scallions
3) one bag pea shoots: These are the growing tips of pea plants and provide full pea flavor without the work. They can be eaten raw alone or in salad or thrown into a pasta or eggs. Recipes here.
4) CHOICE: one bunch chioggia beets OR baby Scarlet Nantes carrots
The Chioggia (pronounced kee-O-gah)beets are also known as lollipop beets due to the striking striped flesh. Read about this lovely beet here. The carrots are sweet orange fleshed.
5) one bag simple salad mix
6) one pound wildflower honey from White Oak Apiary. Owner Mike Bruen keeps hives here at the Garden of Ideas and many other area locations. He is based out of Brewster, NY.
