Collard Greens

2016 CSA Summer July 9th Collard Greens

Tomato, freshly dug new potatoes, more edible flowers and a new take on eating collard greens:  Crazy Cajun wraps…Baba Yaga rolls…whatever you call them, they are an easy and quick way to enjoy your collard greens this week.  We took grated ginger, ham, onion, sweet peppers & cardamom,  sprinkled this chopped blend with balsamic then wrapped this in a collard leaf and fastend it with a toothpick. Finished by pouring olive oil around and over top a bit…cooked for 15 mins @ 350..then sat for 5 in cooling oven.

With the herbs and new potatoes a simple oven roast would sufice to enjoy the flavors; coat bite sized cuts of potato in olive oil and chopped poultry herbs on a roll sheet or pan with sides; roast at 325 for 30 minutes or until golden on outside and soft when pierced with a fork.  Chopped onion can be included for a sweet accent to the roasting.  A potato salad from boiled potatoes and onion with dill would make a nice side dish on some of these more warmer evenings.

Squash blossom harvest

Tomato, onion, garlic and squash blossoms this week would make for a yummy combo, whether they end up as toppings for pizza or pasta, as ingredients for omelet or quiche, or used as  enhancement for stuffing the blossoms.  This combo is also a great start for “sopa de flor de calabaza”, roughly translated as soup of the squash flowers; a delicacy considering how prickly the plant is.  Enjoy!
