Winter share, 8 of 11
Feb. 14th, 2024 06:38 pm- four pounds of sweet potatoes
- four pounds of carrots
- two pounds of potatoes
- two pounds of spinach
- a small head of green cabbage (one of the slightly flattened head types, not spherical)
- a tetsukabuto winter squash
- a bag (half a pound?) of mixed shiitake and lion's mane mushrooms
First thoughts: I still have a lot of shiitakes from last week's mushroom share, plus I'll be getting oyster, pioppino, and more lion's mane tomorrow, so I need to find something delicious that uses a lot of mushrooms. Not sure what, though; soup is a possibility, but for some reason doesn't feel exciting. Suggestions welcome. Otherwise, it's all fairly standard veg. I don't think I've had this particular variety of winter squash before (a quick look elsewhere says it's a cross-bred squash developed in Japan in the 1960s, and quite popular in parts of South America), so while I can follow the standard winter squash templates, if anyone has favorite uses for this particular kind of squash, happy to hear them.
