[local eating] Farm share week 3, fish share week 7

[magid]

A bit sparse on the veggies this week:

• a bunch of cilantro (given away)
  
• a bunch of turnips with greens (I chose Hakurei over red ones)
  
• a head of lettuce (red leaf)
  
• a purple kohlrabi with greens
  
• a bunch of pearl onions with greens (I chose purple over white)
  
• a pound of summer squash (I chose zukes)
  
• a bunch of chard (I got bright lights)

Luckily I've been asked to bring a green salad to a sheva brachot tonight, so I won't have a backlog of previous lettuces anymore...


In the fish share, it was fillets of cod. I didn't cook them immediately, in favor of running off to the park to watch some Ionesco and Shakespeare (and a bizarre interpretive movement piece based on Jabberwocky) performed on a truck. And it's been hot and humid, disinclining me to be adventurous. So I smeared some mayo on top of each piece, then dredged all sides in white-wheat flour and tandoori seasoning, then baked in a hot oven for 12 minutes. I'm looking into the possibilities of ceviche in the future, though I'm nervous I won't like it (having never tried it).

Whoa, summer squash already!

I suspect they started these in the plastic-covered quonset-hut-like structures they have, earlier than would otherwise be feasible.
