Squash Blossoms - Slice 'em, dice 'em, stuff 'em, fry 'em & bake 'em. Squash blossoms are a natural part of the squash management process. These male blooms are pinched to prevent the plant from setting too much fruit. And we all win. Yummy.
Dill - Oh yes, fresh dill - nothing like it.
Sage (Salvia) - try it inside a chicken, on top of a chicken, in soup, stew, beans... I could go on forever. Dried sage does not even come close to the potency of this herb when it's fresh
Chives - They're back for a reprise performance. Try them with your squash blossoms, in salad and on eggs.
Eggs - (Full share holders only) From the chicken tractor and full of Omega-3 Fatty Acid, not tested of course, but fresh this week which is about 5 weeks fresher than the store. You know you're hooked.
Snow/Spring Peas - Eat them in the pod with your salad, stir fried, as a snack. My share never makes it anywhere near the house as it gets eaten straight off the vine. Delish!
Green Tomatoes - The famous Fried kind. Not fried in the basket of course. Soak them in buttermilk. Shake them up in bag of cornmeal with salt and pepper to taste. Drop them in your favorite hot oil and eat them when the batter has browned. OMG. Heaven in the South.
