Oven Steamed Carrots and Leeks
Vegetables and herbs combined in a foil packet then steamed in the oven – simple and delicious
2 tablespoons hazelnut, walnut, or olive oil
2 medium leeks
4 medium carrots
1/4 pound white (button) mushrooms
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut four 12-inch lengths of aluminum foil. Spread 1 teaspoon oil on each to coat half.
2. Trim off roots and dark green leaf tops from leeks. Slice lengthwise toward leaf tips to halve each leek. Plunge up and down in a sinkful of water, opening up the layers to slosh clean, then examine each down to the base. Repeat until soil-free. Lay cut side down and slice across into 1-inch lengths. Divide evenly among foil squares, arranging on the oiled part.
3. Peel carrots; cut into 1-inch diagonal slices. Distribute among the leeks. Mince mushrooms very fine. Toss with thyme, sugar, salt, and pepper. Add remaining 2 teaspoons oil and mix well. Divide evenly over the vegetables. Fold over foil and form half-moon packets, crimping edges tightly, as if making turnovers.
4. Set packets on baking sheet. Bake in center of oven 20 minutes or until tender.
Market News
Hello!
Dear customers, we appreciate your loyalty and support of Fresh Harvest during this long winter. We understand that variety and availability are low in the cold months, and are thankful to all of you for continuing to buy local produce.
We have experienced some issues with quality, and hope that you know that we will refund money if you have received a product you do not feel satisfied with. Please let us know, as it helps us to do our job better.
We are so proud of all of our fellow farmers and small business owners who we share Fresh Harvest with. We take joy in offering their product to you. Behind every item on the Market is a truly dedicated and hard working person. They are all doing there best, and all are continuing to learn, as well!
We have a great selection of vegetables this week, as well as great new items up from Bear Creek Farm and Wedge Oak Farms. And have you tried a baguette from Dozen Bakery yet? It is delivered to us warm, fresh from the oven, and is perfect with some cheese from The Bloomy Rind!
Now is the time to think flowers! The pre-paid bouquets are available, meaning current customers have the opportunity to save $20 if they pre-pay now for 10 large flower bouquets that will be available over the course of the summer. You are not obligated to get a bouquet every week – just when it suits you. The flower bouquets are available usually about 20 weeks, so you will have plenty of opportunities to order one. Please email Tally if you have any questions!
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday!
John and Tallahassee
