Recipes
Kohlrabi Bistro Salad
from thekitchn.com
Serves 4
Splash white vinegar
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon minced shallot
1 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
6 cups peeled and julienne-cut kohlrabi
1 head Belgian endive, cut into bias strips
4 strips thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled
Bring several inches of water plus a splash of white vinegar to a boil over high heat in a wide sauté pan or deep skillet. Crack eggs one at a time into a small ramekin and then slide into the water. Keep an eye on the boil/simmer of the water. The temperature of the water should drop from the cold eggs. When it comes back up to a simmer, reduce the heat to maintain a very gentle simmer. If the water is boiling, reduce heat. Cook eggs 4 minutes for runny yolks. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with a clean towel.
Meanwhile, whisk cider vinegar, shallot, and Dijon in a large salad bowl. Whisk in oil, tarragon, salt, and pepper. Add kohlrabi and endive and toss to coat. Divide salad among four dinner plates. Top with crumbled bacon and the hot poached egg.
Market News
Hello!
It is hot out there! Hope you were able to stay cool today – maybe even found a way to play in some water! We are certainly hoping the rain expected for Tuesday does come and provides a nice soaking for the ground as well as cools down the temperatures!
We are definitely in the transition from late spring to early summer. The summer crops are rolling in – squash, cucumbers, and the first tomatoes. The greens and lettuces won’t be around much longer. This is a diverse time of year, crop wise. As the summer heat kicks in, we see less variety of crops and get down to the summer heat loving staples. But for now, please enjoy all that we have to offer. We’ve got a great selection of wonderful vegetables!
If you are interested in peaches from the Peach Truck, but pick up either at the farms or at Westahaven, we can bring an order for you. Please let us know what you would like in the comments section of your order. We will charge your account for you, and deliver the peaches with your order.
The Bloomy Rind is back with us this week. Also, please support our other amazing vendors and providers – Dozen Bakery, Wedge Oak Farm and Bear Creek meats, Tru Bee honey, and Twin Forks Farm nuts and granola. We really are lucky to be working with some of the best food artisans in town!
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday! Thank you so much for all your support!
John and Tallahassee
