Local Rhubarb from Big B Farm
Although we still have a little time to wait for local fruit (cherries and strawberries aren’t too far off, I promise!) rhubarb offers an early season sweet-tart treat. Yes, it is technically a vegetable, but how many vegetables do YOU know that make off the hook pies and muffins?!? On sale this week at Cherry Sprout for $2.79/lb. Let’s get baking!

Manilla mango, aka ataulfo or Champagne mango.
Don’t wait to try these beautiful and incredibly rich and juicy mangoes. A Mexican variety, they are not available for most of the year. Their smooth, thin skin is green when unripe, changing to a glowing yellow as they ripen (and sweeten!) Manilla mangoes are at their finest when their skin is a little wrinkly. Their flesh is smooth and firm with no fibers and their taste is full, sweet and creamy. A perfect treat for a sunny afternoon!

Even in the middle of the winter, Oregon farmers provide. Many people aren’t sure how to use root vegetables although they are quite versatile. Think of how you cook potatoes; you can use any of these roots in much the same way.
One of the simplest things is roasting–scrub the roots clean with a vegetable brush, cube, toss in oil, salt and pepper to taste, and roast uncovered on a baking tray at 375 degrees for 25 to 35 minutes, stirring a few times throughout.
Even simpler, try grating raw beets and tossing with a citrus vinaigrette and some chopped walnuts and blue cheese. Delicious winter salad!
Do you have a favorite root vegetable recipe? Please share it with us!

AKA Jerusalem Artichokes, Sunroots, these roots are delicious raw, roasted, fried, or boiled. The texture raw is similar to a firm water chestnut and roasting them really brings out their artichoke-like flavor. A great local specialty this time of year!
On sale this week at Cherry Sprout Produce!

Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 25 minutes
Serves: 3-4 people Cost: about $9-$11
Ingredients:
1-2 Tablespoons of your favorite Thai and True Curry Paste
1 can coconut milk
½ cup water
**optional 1 Tablespoon tamari
1 Sweet Dumpling squash (or other thin-skinned variety like Delicata or Sugar Dumpling)
¼ to ½ pound crimini mushrooms or white mushrooms
1 medium shallot
1 bunch green kale
Halve squash lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Cut the stem and hard blossom end off and slice squash into ¾ inch cubes. When using a thin-skinned variety like those suggested, you don’t need to skin the squash. The skin will soften to a lovely creamy texture when cooked.
Peel shallot and slice thin. Rinse, drain and slice mushrooms. Rinse, drain, de-stem and coarsely chop kale.
Combine coconut milk, curry paste, water and tamari (if you like) in a medium saucepan. Stir paste to dissolve and bring to a simmer. Add squash, shallots and mushrooms, cover and simmer 20 minutes or until squash is soft. Add kale and simmer 3-5 minutes longer, or until kale has wilted.
Serve hot over your favorite rice or rice noodles.

Eating your vitamin C is rarely so delicious! Citrus season is in full swing! It always strikes me as a beautiful synchronicity that the height of citrus season coincides with the height (or depths) of the cold and flu season. I make sure to eat at least one tangerine a day and a half of a sweet juicy grapefruit almost always accompanies my breakfast lately. Check out our lovely selection of mandarins, tangerines, specialty oranges and grapefruits and kumquats. You can always ask your friendly produce person for advice and a juicy sample if can’t decide what to buy!
