Weekly Blog on Grant Family Farms CSA - Week22


This weeks basket included:

  • Baby greens
  • Cabbage
  • Cilantro
  • Napa cabbage
  • Red leaf lettuce
  • Curly kale
  • Green chilies
  • Red skinned carrots
  • Beets
  • Potatoes
  • Butternut squash

This week I made a slaw with the napa cabbage and carrots. Slice the cabbage as thinly as possible. Shred the carrots, and add to the cabbage. Salt and let sit for about an hour. Using cheese cloth, squeeze out the moisture as best you can. Make a dressing - I use canola oil, and dijon mustard to create a base emulsion. Then add honey, lime juice, olive oil, salt, pepper and chipotle peppers with adobo sauce. Toss with the dressing and serve.
