Winter share, 8 of 11
Feb. 4th, 2026 05:48 pmAnother boxed share due to the cold weather, so I was inspired to pull out the kitchen scale again.
First thoughts: a lovely bowl of ramen with mushroom, carrot, and spinach. Slaws with carrot and/or daikon with either Asian-ish or mustardy dressing. Carrot halwa pudding. Potato salad, possibly with sprouts. Mashed potatoes with spinach. Baked potatoes. Fried potatoes. (I like potatoes….).Pickled daikon and/or carrot, possibly with ginger and other flavors toward bahn mi-style pickles. Some kind of saute to feature the shiitakes, likely with onion, carrot, and tofu.
- about 9.5 pounds of carrots
- about 4 pounds of Yukon Gold potatoes
- about 4 pounds of red daikon
- two medium bags of spinach
- 2 4-ounce containers of salad mix sprouts from the Gill Greenery (alfalfa, China Rose radish, and crimson clover)
- 0.75 pounds of little shiitake mushrooms from Mycoterra Farm
