Recipes


Spaghetti with Braised Kale
from Molly Weizenberg in Bon Appetit

1 pound lacinato kale (about 2 bunches), large center ribs and stems removed, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided 1 medium onion, finely chopped (about 1 1/2 cups) 8 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced 1/2 pound spaghetti 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice Finely grated Parmesan cheese

preparation

Rinse kale. Drain; transfer to bowl with some water still clinging.

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until soft and translucent, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes. Add sliced garlic and sprinkle with salt; cook until onion is golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add kale and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss until wilted, about 3 minutes. Cover pot and reduce heat to medium-low. Continue cooking until kale is very tender, stirring occasionally and adding water by teaspoonfuls if dry, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook spaghetti in medium pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to bite, stirring occasionally. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid. Add cooked spaghetti to kale mixture in pot. Add lemon juice and 2 tablespoons reserved cooking liquid; toss to combine, adding more liquid by tablespoonfuls if dry. Sprinkle spaghetti with grated Parmesan cheese and serve.

Market News


Hello!

This Wednesday there will be a Memorial Service being held at Trinity Church before and during pick up hours. Because of the need for parking for the service, we will move our spot to lower in the parking lot, closer to the road immediately on the left when you pull into the lot off of Sharondale. It is the spot that used to be the home of the Johnny Howell produce tent. We will set up there for this week only. Unfortunately, it also looks like weather could be very wet on Wednesday, so we may be distributing your bags out of the back of our vans. We apologize ahead of time for any chaos or confusion, and appreciate your flexibility and patience!

We are pleased and excited to have The Peach Truck with us every Wednesday now on through the summer! We invited them to set up next to us so that you would have easy access to their wonderful, Georgia grown peaches. While these peaches are not local and are not organic, the farm and Peach Truck are a family run business that uses low-spray and best practice agriculture techniques.

We know you have a lot of options these days when shopping for local produce. We really appreciate your support of Fresh Harvest, and do our best to provide you with a great selection of the freshest organically grown produce you can find anywhere. Please know the best way you can support us small local farmers is by eating A LOT of vegetables during your week! Not only does it make for better sales for all us farmers, it helps keep you – our dear customers – healthy and happy. We all win!

Once again, thanks so much for your support, and we look forward to seeing you on Wednesday!

John and Tallahassee
