summer CSA, week 17

[cellio]

• large heirloom tomato
• sweet potato
• fairytale eggplant (I've never heard that name before)
• bunch of white turnips with greens
• green bell pepper
• large acorn squash
• 7 McIntosh apples
• 6 Bartlet pears
• 4 assorted mild peppers, to be identified
• bunch parsley

The preview email said the pepper medley would include green peppers, no-heat jalapenos, cubanelles, and poblanos. I'm not sure which of these peppers are which. The one that looks like a green bell pepper doesn't smell like one and makes me think poblano. The pictures I found of cubanelles are various colors, with the only green being light green -- don't know if that's what I've got there. Anybody who can help with pepper identification, please speak up. :-)

I sometimes stuff acorn squash with apples; I might try pears for a change. I'll roast the turnips, maybe with a mustard sauce. I sauteed the greens tonight with ginger, shallot, and red and yellow mini-peppers from the last share. The eggplant will be all for me because Dani hates eggplant; I might bread and fry it.

Thanks! I suppose it could also be a green pepper that smells more like poblano from being in a bag with the latter. Maybe I'll stuff it and the known-poblano and give this one to Dani since he likes green peppers. :-)
