I'm wondering if I should make a blog sidebar of recipes that have been unusual successes...
Really, I shouldn't go on and on about the wonders of the farm box, but it has been such a great way to find new directions in cooking. This weekend I made:
radish leaf pesto
quite good-- I served mine on polenta with cherry tomatoes. I also didn't make it so paste-like-- I'm only working with knives here.
Persian Pickled Turnips
We can eat these in about a week. The turnips that came in our box were so tiny and cute, and they are supposed to be just perfect for pickling.
Ricotta Gnocchi
I wanted to be a Daring Chef, but the homemade ricotta was really so-so. Maybe I cooked it too long or the taste of our refrigerator got to it... The gnocchi were also just ok.
Chilled Radish Buttermilk Soup
The buttermilk saga continues--- actually this soup was refreshing and delicious. This may be the only way I will eat radishes.
I'm heading off to Switzerland tomorrow-- wish me luck!
