Week 16 | April 15 | Lots of green leaves

You are currently viewing Week 16 | April 15 | Lots of green leaves

We bring you some suggestions on how to use this great selection of greens to compliment your meals throughout the week! Don’t throw out the radish leaves, try frying them in some olive oil and garlic. This also works for the rapini, as well as the spinach. You can also combine all three greens, as they drastically reduce in volume once cooked. The radishes are of course delicious raw, but if you are looking for a less sharp flavour, baking them in butter makes them softer in both taste and texture. Enjoy!

Don’t forget to change your status before Sunday 8pm, if needed. Enjoy!
