What’s New

Produce

Last of the Season Strawberries
Mast Produce – $6.70 / quart
Besides being delicious, berries are dense with antioxidants and other important nutrients that defend the body against everything from cancer to memory loss. Strawberries are an excellent source of vitamin C and manganese. Eat them plain as a snack, in a smoothie or as added sweetness to salads. Storage tip: Place unwashed berries in a single layer on a paper towel in a covered container in your refrigerator.

Zucchini & Yellow Summer Squash
Mast Produce – $4 / lbs

Tomatoes, Red Slicers
B&H Produce – $4 / lbs
Lycopene, the chemical that makes tomatoes red, helps eliminate skin-aging free radicals caused by ultraviolet rays. Cooking tomatoes, helps concentrate their lycopene levels, so when eating pasta, opt for the red sauce.

Super Spicy Mustard Greens
Thies Farm and Greenhouse – $2.50 / bunch

Crisp Kale
Thies Farm and Greenhouse – $2.50 / bunch

Butterhead Lettuce
B&H Produce – $3.35 / head

Green Garlic
Kruse Farms – $4 / bunch

Carrots – Deep Mud Farm – $2.30 / bunch
Eating carrots do not help a person to see better, instead their high levels of vitamin A help prevent a person from seeing worse. Carrots offer an extremely high dose of vitamin A which is great for your eyes and skin. The National Cancer Institute found that people with the highest intake of carotenoids (what makes the orange color in carrots and other oragne colored fruits and vegetables) are six times less likely to develop skin cancer than those with the lowest intakes.

Carrots – Deep Mud Farm – $2.30 / bunch
Carrots’ extremely high dose of vitamin A is great for your eyes and skin.  National Cancer Institute researchers found that people with the highest intake of carotenoids (what makes carrots orange) were six times less likely to develop skin cancer than those with the lowest intakes.
Urban myth:  Eating carrots helps a person see better.
In reality carrots mainly help prevent a person from seeing worse.  Orange colored foods get their color from their high levels of beta-carotene, which your body converts into the antioxidant vitamin A.  While vitamin A does a lot of important things-from boosting your immunity to improving communication between cells-it’s vital for creating the pigment in the retina responsible for vision in low-light.

Strawberries! Miller Farm – $6.50 / quart
Besides being delicious, berries are dense with antioxidants and other important nutrients that defend the body against everything from cancer to memory loss. Strawberries are an excellent source of vitamin C and manganese. Eat them plain as a snack, in a smoothie or as added sweetness to salads. Storage tip: Place unwashed berries in a single layer on a paper towel in a covered container in your refrigerator.

Broccoli, Double Star Farm – $4 / lbs
A single stalk of this cruciferous veggie packs three grams of protein, about as much as an ounce of chicken breast.  Eating a cup offers a great dose of calcium, as well as manganese, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, and iron. It also contains phytonutrient sulforaphane, which studies at Johns Hopkins University suggest has powerful anti-cancer properties.

Asparagus, Scharff Farms – $6.50 / 1 lbs bundle
Asparagus is loaded with bone-protecting vitamin K and it is a great source of folate, which may help fight off heart disease.  “It’s a nutritious alternative to starches as a side with fish and poultry,” says Milton Stokes, MPH, RD, a spokesman for the American Dietetic Association. Tips for cooking Asparagus: Toss with olive oil, salt, and crushed red pepper, roast for 10 min at 400 degrees, finish with squeeze of lemon. — Cook bite-size pieces in a hot wok with soy-sauce, ginger, and garlic. — Sautee with olive oil (see recipe below).

Tomatoes
Green & Red Slicers – $3.65 / lbs
Lycopene, the chemical that makes tomatoes red, helps eliminate skin-aging free radicals caused by ultraviolet rays. Cooking tomatoes, helps concentrate their lycopene levels, so when eating pasta, opt for the red sauce.

Carrot and Sweet Potato Puree
(4 side servings)

Recipe from Food Network and adapted by Tony Belpedio, BS Dietetics Candidate, Fontbonne University

Ingredients:

1 tbs extra virgin olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
1 lbs carrots, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
2 cups chicken broth
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper
pinch of cayenne (optional)
maple syrup to taste

Directions:

In a saucepan or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.  Add the carrots, sweet potatoes, cayenne (if using), salt, and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes until slightly softened. Add the stock and bring to a boil.  Reduce the heat and simmer until the carrots are tender, about 25 minutes. Use a ladle to remove the majority of the cooking liquid and reserve. Using an immersion blender, puree the mixture until slightly chunky, adding the reserved cooking liquid a little at a time, if needed. Stir in maple syrup to taste.

Spring Greens & Veggies

You can’t go wrong with beautiful leafy greens. Some greens are surprising sources of bone-building fat burning mineral calcium. Others contain folic acid, a nutrient that helps maintain cardiovascular health and may battle depression.  Almost all greens contain vitamin C to keep your immune system going strong, and fiber to reduce cholesterol.


What’s New

Spring Greens & Veggies

Spinach is rich in vitamin K, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc and even selenium, which may help protect the liver and reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s. A study in the Journal of Nutrition suggests that spinach can kill prostate cancer cells. Incorporate more spinach into your diet by swapping your iceberg lettuce on sandwiches and salads to spinach.

Pecan Crusted Trout with Kale Chips

Adapted from Food.Com by Food Snob St. Louis & Maude’s Market

Ingredients for Trout

  • 1 trout filet
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted
  • 6 tablespoons cup bread crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1 & 1/2 tablespoons butter, room temperature

Preparation for Trout

Preheat oven to 450 degrees, and combine all ingredients except butter and trout to make breading.

Bush one side of the trout with softened butter. Sprinkle with pecan breading and press into fish to make sure it is fully and evenly coated on that side.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush with remaining butter.  Place fish, non-breaded side down on the baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until fish is flaky.

Ingredients for Kale Chips

  • 1 bunch of kale, washed, stems removed, leaves chopped into large pieces
  • Olea Olive oil
  • Sea Salt, to taste

Preparation for Kale Chips

Preheat oven to 300 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place kale in a large bowl and drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt.  Toss until evenly coated.

Spread kale out evenly on baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until crisp, stirring halfway through cooking time.

Enjoy!

Menu Notes & Recipe Ideas

How to Handle Nettles

Use the plastic bag, a paper towel or tongs to handle your nettles, rather than your hands, otherwise you may receive a bit of a sting. After cooking, nettles produce an entirely sting-free and delicious eating experience, reminiscent of spinach but more floral and earthy.

This wild native has a lot of iron, potassium, manganese, calcium, vitamin A and C, and are also a decent source of protein. Many cultures use nettles as a medicinal herb to treat arthritis, anemia, hay fever and kidney problems, among other ailments. Dried leaves may be used to make a tea that is useful in alleviating allergy symptoms.

Drying

Remove the leaves from the stem (to ensure even drying) and rinse them in a colander. Place the leaves on a baking dish on the lowest shelf, at the lowest temperature (about 200 degrees). Check every 5 minutes until dry. Store in a plastic ziplock bag and use in tea to add strong ‘green’ flavor.

Cooking

Rinse the plant in a colander. Plunge the leaves into a pot of boiling water for 1-2 minutes and you’ll be left with a sleek, slick pile of vivid green leaves.

Nettle Pesto

Ingredients

  • 6-8 tablespoons cooked, chopped nettles
  • 2-3 garlic cloves or 2-3 green garlic plants
  • 2 tablespoons pecan pieces, toasted
  • 2 tablespoons grated Marcoot Heritage cheese
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil, as needed

Preparation

In a food processor or blender add the nettles, garlic, pecans, cheese, a bit of olive oil (start with 2 tablespoons), salt and pepper to taste. Blend. Add more olive oil to obtain the desired consistency.

Can be stored in the fridge for a week or frozen. Excellent as a spread or dressing to add punch to dishes with simple flavors think trout (which we will get in the CSA next week), bread & pasta, and sunchokes.

What to do with Sunchokes

No need to peel the thin skin of a sunchoke. Related to the sunflower, these tubers are an excellent source of iron and have a fresh, nutty flavor. To prepare, just slice to desired size, eat raw in a salad, steam, saute or roast in the oven with olive oil and your favorite herbs, salt & pepper.

Enjoy!
