Here are some of the dishes made this week:

Buttered Curry Chicken, with brown rice and blanched snow peas.

Caramelized Onion Pizza

Full Harvest Farm Coleslaw
Serves 6-8 as a side dish
Dressing:
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
¼ cup Rapadura/Sucanat sugar, or dark brown sugar
2 Tbsp. brown mustard
1 tsp. dill seed
1 tsp. celery seed
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste


-Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a large bowl until combined. Rapadura/sucanat sugar looks like round, brown granules, and has a unique taste. It does not dissolve as easily as other sugars, so you will need to let the dressing sit for awhile so the liquid can be absorbed and break apart the larger granules: 10-15 minutes should be enough. Dark brown sugar will dissolve quicker. Whisk the dressing again before adding the vegetables to be sure there are no more granules of sugar.
Vegetables:
8 cups shredded green and/or red cabbage, carrots, celeriac, kohlrabi, fennel bulb, radish, rutabaga, turnip, etc.
½ cup onion, minced
-Add to dressing and toss until all the vegetables are dressed. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes so the flavors meld. Serve.

I didn't end up making this recipe, but made my own version.

 Cabbage, Carrots and Walnuts with a Yoghurt dressing.

Lettuce on my deck. Ready to eat. The next blog will show what happens when you let lettuce grow past the time they should be eaten. :)
