Recipes

*Southern Style Kale *
You can substitue any greens for this!
from Eating Well
October/November 2006
_

Kale becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender in this recipe. Assertive garlic and salty country ham stand up to kale’s bold flavor.
serves 4

Ingredients
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 ounces country ham, pancetta or prosciutto, diced (about 1/2 cup)
15 cups stemmed, torn and rinsed kale, (1-2 bunches)
2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
Preparation

Heat oil in a large high-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic, stir, and immediately add ham (or pancetta or prosciutto). Add kale by the handful, stirring to make room for more leaves. When all the kale has been added, add water and crushed red pepper; stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes. Uncover and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until most of the water has evaporated and the kale is tender, 10 to 15 minutes more. Serve warm.

Hello!

Hope you all have had a cozy, rainy day. We needed some rain on our farms after some dry weeks. Now the cover crops can germinate and get the fields ready for winter!
Lots of greens this week, and green beans. Both delicious with some sweet potatoes or winter squash.
It is the last week of flowers for the season. If you have any prepaid bouquets left, feel free to order a couple and share with your friends!

It is time to order those turkeys!
Wedge Oak Farm has made their Thanksgiving turkeys available for pre order. These sold out last year, so get your order in early! These turkey’s will be frozen, and you will have a few options for picking them up. Thanksgiving will be on November 28th, and we will be delivering on Tuesday November 26th. You will be able to pick up your turkey on Wednesday, Nov. 20th or Tuesday the 26th. After you place your deposit for the turkey, Karen from Wedge Oak Farm will contact you with available sizes and more information.

Also this year, Dozen Bakery will have pre order pies for Thanksgiving – pumpkin and apple gallete!
The Bloomy Rind will also be offering cheese trays for entertaining.

Please remember we move up under the porch at the church if it looks like rain. The forecast is iffy for Wednesday. We are so grateful to the Trinity Church community for letting us use this space!

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

John and Tallahassee
