AFRICAN PINEAPPLE PEANUT STEW
Tested and shared by fellow member (from a Moosewood cookbook) 

INGREDIENTS 
1 C chopped onions 
2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed 
1 T vegetable oil 
1 bunch Swiss chard (4 cups sliced)
2 C undrained canned crushed pineapple
1/2 C peanut butter
1 T your favorite hot sauce
1/4 C chopped fresh cilantro (u-pick!)
salt to taste
crushed skinless peanuts
chopped scallions

INSTRUCTIONS 
1) In a covered saucepan, sauté' the onions and garlic in the oil for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are lightly browned. While the onions sauté', wash the kale or Swiss chard. Remove and discard the large stems and any blemished leaves. Stack the leaves on a cutting surface and slice crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices.
2) Add the pineapple and its juice to the onions and bring to a simmer. Stir in the kale or chard, cover, and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring a couple of times, until just tender. Mix in the peanut butter, Tabasco, and cilantro and simmer for 5 minutes. Add salt to taste, and serve.
TATZIKI

INGREDIENTS
1 cup Greek-style plain yogurt
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped into 1/4-inch pieces
1 clove garlic, minced
2 T freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 T chopped fresh dill
1/2 t kosher salt, or to taste
1/4 t freshly ground black pepper, or to taste

INSTRUCTIONS
Stir together the yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon juice and dill in a medium bowl. Season with the salt and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasonings.

TIPS AND TRICKS
1. Double the cucumber and go lighter on the liquid/yogurt to make is a CUCUMBER DILL SALAD as a stand alone side
2. Use as a marinade or a dip. Use it to replace mayo on a burger or sandwich or in potato salad. The list goes on!!
3. Make it ahead and refrigerate (the garlic will become more pronounced the longer it sits).
MISO GLAZED TURNIPS
 
INGREDIENTS
1 T white miso
2 T unsalted butter, softened, divided
1 lb small hakurei turnips with greens
1/2 cups water
1 T mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
PREPARATION
Stir together miso and  1Tbutter.
Discard turnip stems and coarsely chop leaves. Halve turnips (leave whole if tiny) and put in a 12-inch heavy skillet along with water, mirin, remaining tablespoon butter, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then boil, covered, 10 minutes.
Add greens by handfuls, turning and stirring with tongs and adding more as volume in skillet reduces. Cover and cook 1 minute. Uncover and continue boiling, stirring occasionally, until turnips are tender and liquid is reduced to a glaze, about 5 minutes. Stir in miso butter and cook 1 minute.
notes from the farm
YOGURT FOLKS!

Remembrance Farm is still waiting on the part needed for their final inspector approval. They are doing everything they can to get yogurt shares to you next week. We thank you for your patience as the farm grapples with shipping and inspection delays due to COVID. Your CSA membership is truly essential, now more than ever!
INTRO TO
HAKUREI TURNIPS

NUTRITION
The roots are a great source of vitamin C, antioxidants and fiber. And the greens are even more packed with vitamins and minerals.

USE
Unlike most turnips, Hakureis have a crisp, delicious raw flavor (just whole, or chopped/grated in salads), make a quick pickle, or cook with their greens to enhance their natural sweetness.
