New This Week: |
| 
Green Meadow Farm in Gap, PA has some uncommonly lovely herbs for us this week. Ian will bring us SWEET CICELY (intriguingly sweet), LOVAGE (complex and celery-like) and CHIVE BLOSSOMS (gorgeous and oniony, sprinkle over dishes or salads) on Thursday afternoon. He will also bring a small amount of SNOW PEAS!
Lots of fresh spring produce arrived from Lancaster Farm Fresh on Tuesday. New items include: FRENCH BREAKFAST and BABY BELL RED RADISHES, ROMAINE LETTUCE, BABY MUSTARD GREENS, STIR FRY GREENS MIX and STINGING NETTLES (see this week’s recipe!).
We are sad to report that Lancaster Farm Fresh has encountered a gap in supply of their ever-popular beef sticks…but never fear! They are now offering nitrate-free BISON STICKS made with grass-fed bison. These snacks are leaner and less sweet than the beef sticks, with a more “jerky-like” texture and a nice touch of pepper. |

 As spring greens production comes into full swing, the Farmstand abounds with leafy delicacies. Alongside staples like spinach and lettuce mix, you may see greens that are unfamiliar to you, or that you don’t know quite what to do with. In the spirit of spreading the word about these lovely and extremely nutritious vegetables, I have compiled the Greens Primer (below) to sing their praises.
SPRING GREENS PRIMER:
Tatsoi: Beautiful little dark-green rosettes of spoon-shaped leaves, which have a mildly spicy flavor. They can be chopped whole into salads or thrown into a stir-fry.
Bok Choy: Urn-shaped cabbage relative with flavorful light green leaves and crisp juicy stalks. Wonderful stir-fried at any stage of development, they are particularly tasty in their “baby” stage, lightly sautéed whole.
Tokyo Bekana: Extremely delicate Japanese version of Chinese cabbage with bright chartreuse leaves, juicy white stalks, and a subtle but delicious flavor. Heads can be shredded raw into salad or sautéed very gently.
Stinging Nettles: An incredibly nutrient-dense wild green, nettles have a rich spinach-like flavor, and are wonderful cooked in soups, sauté’s, or infused into tea, Don’t be scared away by the name…though plants are covered in tiny stinging hairs, the compounds that sting are neutralized by heat and drying. Give them a try with this week’s featured recipe: Pasta With Nettles, Sorrel and Lemon.
Watercress: Aquatic/semi-aquatic plant with a peppery bite and juicy crunch. Water cress makes an interesting addition to sandwiches, soups and salads.
Savoy Spinach: A “meaty” variety of spinach with curly, crinkled leaves and almost nutty flavor. Savoy spinach makes a tasty and substantial addition to salads and loses less volume when cooked than flat-leaf spinach. Be aware that the sugar is in the stems, so don’t trim them too much.
Mustard Greens: As the name implies, these wrinkled greens come from the same plant whose seeds are used to make the condiment mustard. Their lively flavor is used widely in southern cooking, as well as Chinese and Japanese dishes. The baby greens can be added sparingly to salads while more developed leaves are best cooked alongside other strong flavors
Mizuna: A Japanese variety of mustard green with delicate feathery leaves and a subtly peppery flavor. Mizuna is delicious raw in salads with a citrus or sesame oil flavored dressing, or added to a stir-fry with other “Asian greens”.
Arugula: Also called Rocket, this green has a unique aromatic tang that is hard to describe. Most widely eaten raw in salads or as a garnish, arugula also makes a tasty pesto or can be lightly sautéed (though heat mellows the flavor considerably).
Sorrel: Often considered an herb, sorrel earns a place in this list for the lovely lemony tartness it bestows on other spring greens. It can be sprinkled on salads, used as a green in spring tonics and soups, or baked into luscious custards. Give sorrel a chance with this week’s featured recipe: Pasta With Nettles, Sorrel and Lemon. |

Pasta With Nettles, Sorrel and Lemon
From www.reluctantgourmet.com/blog/, October 3rd, 2007
Serves 2 to 4
Ingredients:
1⁄4 pound fresh stinging nettles
8 ounces pasta
1⁄2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1⁄4 pound fresh ricotta cheese
1 lemon for zest and juice
1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh parley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 small handful of fresh sorrel leaves, washed and torn into bite sized pieces
1⁄2 cup toasted walnuts
Bring two large pots of salted water to a boil. One will be for the pasta and the other for the nettles.
When the water comes to a boil in one of the pots, “carefully” add the nettles and give them a stir. Cook for 5 minutes and transfer them to a colander with a slotted spoon. You want to leave any dirt or grit in the cooking water. Let the nettle drain.
Add the pasta to the other pot of clean water and cook until al dente.
While the pasta is cooking, press most of the water out of the nettles, transfer them to a food processor and puree. Drizzle in the olive oil and process until completely smooth. Add the ricotta, lemon zest and juice and herbs. Pulse the processor to blend all the ingredients.
Season with salt and pepper.
Remove a cup of the water the pasta is cooking in and reserve. Drain the pasta and then return it to the pot. Toss in the nettle ricotta cheese mixture and stir to combine. Add the fresh sorrel and a little of the reserved pasta water to create the desired consistency of the sauce.
Stir in the walnuts and serve.
