Week 2 Recipes
Glazed Carrots - This is a basic recipe for Glazed Carrots. Overwintered carrots are particularly high in sugar since they convert their starches into sweet sugars to survive their long, cold time spent in the frozen ground. A light addition of brown sugar as in this recipe, or some maple syrup or honey brings out their natural sweetness even further.
Spinach Colcannon - Colcannon is a traditional Irish dish usually made with a savoy leaf cabbage or kale, but we are still a few weeks out from getting those guys harvested. This is a great way to sneak greens into an otherwise carb-heavy mashed potatoes dish. The key is to not cook the spinach too long before mixing into the mashed potatoes, it will continue to soften and cook after you’ve mixed it all together.
