summer CSA, week 17

  • 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.

For some reason the picture didn't show up for me last time.

Having now seen it, I think that dude may just be a green pepper borrowing the poblano's perfume. See how it smells when you cut it open.
