CSA Adventures … Mystery #6

September 24, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

From green, to red, from orange to yellow, the colours of the garden are breathtaking, like a dissected fall foliage that you can eat. How great is that? However, it would seem the mysteries of the CSA are getting better — and tougher? — or someone has disconnected my mic. “Hello … is this thing…

CSA Adventures … Mystery #5

September 10, 2014 by Dale 3 Comments

Some mysteries are supposed to be tough — so here’s one to challenge all your ardent veggie lovers out there. “Who Am I?” And no, “I am not a misshapen pumpkin… but I am a gorgeous colour inside.” That’s your only hint, ok? Answer to be revealed on Saturday … if not before, should one…

CSA Adventures … Mystery #4

August 27, 2014 by Dale 4 Comments

So this adventure series hasn’t turned out exactly as I was expecting — though I guess that is the whole point of any adventure. My let down is that it just hasn’t felt that adventurous, at least to me — but can I really complain that I’m eating delicious veggies, regardless whether they contain new…

CSA Adventures … Mystery #3

July 30, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

So the next lesson in mysteries is that sometimes you have to look outside your borders to find adventure …. My challenge in maintaining this even into the third installment of the series is that I didn’t find much a mystery in my CSA share this past go-round. Most of the usual suspects emerged in…

CSA Adventures … Mystery #2

July 15, 2014 by Dale 6 Comments

Not every adventure needs to lead down a new path. In the inaugural mystery, “we” got to play with Hakurei turnips. That was a yummy adventure indeed. Next up is something that may not be as much of a mystery to many of you, but it will surely be new to many more. While it…

CSA Adventures … Mystery #1

July 7, 2014 by Dale 5 Comments

No, that’s not a typo — I didn’t mean CSI. That is CSA as in “Community Shared Agriculture” aka “community supported agriculture.”  And perhaps this year, we can even think of it as “community shared adventure.” This is my third year having signed up for a CSA — you can read about my CSA Confession to learn…

What am I?

August 6, 2013 by Dale 7 Comments

Ok … it’s time for some active audience participation. Let’s play a game called “What am I?” However, this time, the game has a twist … because I don’t know the answer. In this past week’s CSA share (#4 for those who are counting), this veggie showed up. What is it? I know what it…

My CSA Challenge – Share #2

July 13, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

If the number of recipes that emerged from week number one is any indication, the CSA Challenge – 2013 Edition is off to a great start. I’m feeling inspired and challenged and my tummy is happy. Pretty good metrics all round. Here’s fingers crossed and napkins tucked in hoping that week #2 is just as…

My CSA Challenge – 2013 Edition

July 7, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

For those of my readers that have been with me since last fall, you’ll recall that I I jumped into the world of Community Shared Agriculture (see my CSA Confession to learn more about CSA’s in general) and then embarked on a self-proclaimed “CSA Challenge” when I decided to blog about what I was doing…

Rösti-Potato Quiche with Caramelized Leeks

November 25, 2012 by Dale 2 Comments

If you’ve had potato pancakes (or some version thereof), love fondu, and think the inventors of raclette should simplify things by getting rid of a kitchen applicance you use once every two years, I’ve got good news for you in this recipe. And, yes, this was my eclectic inspiration for this recipe — that and…
