Grilled Halibut with Garlic Scape-Walnut Pesto

July 8, 2013 by Dale 4 Comments

In addition to the fortune of fresh fava beans that showed up in this week’s CSA share, the other ingredient that thoroughly intrigued me were “scapes.” For those not familiar with what is a scape, it is the flower stem of the garlic. Remember, garlic is a bulb that grows in the soil and out…

Garlic Scape-Walnut Pesto

July 8, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

This week, my CSA also showed up with garlic scapes. For those not familiar with what is a scape, it is the flower stem of the garlic. Remember, garlic is a bulb that grows in the soil and out of it will be produced a stem and eventually a flower … just like other bulbous…

Penne with Fava Bean and Fennel Purée (Pasta)

July 7, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

When this week’s CSA bin arrived, the thing I was most looking forward to was the fresh fava beans. This is an example of an idea that got into my head and has stuck 10 or 15 years. Over the years, I had read a number of recipes in my plethora of Italian cookbooks that…

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…

Roasted Red-Kuri Squash Salad with Walnuts in Maple-Mango Vinegrette

November 20, 2012 by Dale Leave a Comment

Inspiration comes in all forms. In this case, it is a squash from my CSA share that has been tempting my creativity for a few weeks. I’ll confess, until this squash (delivered by agricultural storks) arrived in my kitchen, I had no idea that a “red kuri squash” existed, let alone what it would taste…

My CSA Challenge

November 14, 2012 by Dale 2 Comments

From dizzying back to the future ride of the last post, we go back to the future-past: aka the Prequel. This post promises to be sweet … or forecast the sweet experiments that will follow in my CSA Challenge. Alas, after work yesterday, I picked up my last CSA share for the season (small tears…

My CSA Confession

November 14, 2012 by Dale 3 Comments

From backstory, I turn to prequel — so for those easily prone to nausea induced by sudden turns, I apologise. But before the prequel, more of the backstory … I mentioned in my last post my introduction to Community Shared Agriculture (CSA). I’ve also heard previous mention of the ‘S’ standing for “Supported” which I…
