Recipes

*Beets with Herb Vinaigrette Salad *
from Food52
A good, simple way to fix beets!

Serves 4 to 6
1 1/2 pounds beets (weighed after trimming)
4tablespoons olive oil
2teaspoons each chopped basil, tarragon, chives and mint
1teaspoon Dijon mustard
1tablespoon sherry vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper

Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Lay a large sheet of aluminum foil on a baking sheet. Scrub the beets and lay them on one end of the foil. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt. Fold the foil over the beets to make a packet and roll the edges to seal. Bake until the beets are tender, about 30 minutes. Let sit on the baking sheet until warm but not hot. While the beets are still warm, peel them and slice into 1/2-inch wedges. Add the wedges to a serving bowl as you go. Whisk together the mustard, vinegar and a pinch of salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, until the dressing is emulsified. (You can also just throw everything into a jar, screw on the lid tightly and shake until emulsified.) Pour about half the dressing over the beets. Sprinkle in the herbs. Season generously with pepper. Toss well, then taste and adjust seasoning, adding more dressing or salt as needed. Let sit for at least 20 minutes before serving.

Market News

Hello!

We want to take a moment to send out a warm welcome to our new customers for 2015! We have quite a few new names and faces these days, and we really appreciate your support! When you buy from us, you are truly supporting small local farmers, producers, and their families, as well as other small local businesses in Nashville.

We do honor your feedback, as it helps us to be better at what we do. We also guarantee all of the products sold through Fresh Harvest, so please let us know if something does not meet your expectations. We will gladly refund your money or replace the product.

We have a nice selection of veggies for you this week. We do know that quantity is lower this time of year, so you may find an item you want “Sold Out”. Please let us know in the comments section of your order if you want an item that is sold out, and we will try to get it for you and add it to your bag!

Please support our other vendors that work so hard to provide you with top quality products! We have goat milk soap and lip balm from Little Seed Farm, baked goods from Dozen Bakery, a wonderful selection of cheeses from The Bloomy Rind Cheese shop, and of course our wonderful meat vendors, Wedge Oak farm and Bear Creek.
We also still carry Twin Forks Farm granola, although they are no longer baking bread.

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

John and Tallahassee
