April Showers Recipes
The saying seems to be holding true this month, with both drippy showers and beautiful flowers gracing us in abundance at the farm. Thus inspired by our mercurial spring weather, this week’s menu includes a comforting cauliflower soup freshened up with dried Porcini mushrooms, plus Gruyère cheese bread and robust salad greens topped with our housemade blue cheese-hazelnut vinaigrette. A wide assortment of produce, from English shelling peas and arugula rapini to beautiful purple baby artichokes, rounds out this springtime-fresh box.
Here are a few recipe ideas for the week:
