This week, we’ll get the delicious cob of corn that was expected in last week’s package. A golden sign of the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. With Peter van de Erve’s first harvest of red beetroot, why not use any extras to blitz into a hot and sweet beet tahini sauce to drizzle on the salads you can make from this week’s veggies? A feast for the eyes and tastebuds! And instead of throwing the flavoursome celeriac leaves away, dry then blend them into a salted seasoning or use as a parsley substitute.
Do you have a surplus of Timebank hours? Please spend them at the market or package-free shop, or (if you don’t manage to spend them all), please donate them to Lekkernassuh! Ater the summer, we have a big shortage of hours, because there are more going out than coming back in.
We hope you like this package again, please don’t forget to change your status before Sunday 8 pm if necessary.
