Spring Delicacies Recipes

From ruby-red rhubarb and asparagus to the season’s first fiddleheads, spring produce abounds in this week’s delivery, both in the garden and foraged from the wild. This box takes full advantage of these new delights with such complementary provisions as crisp salad greens, Arborio rice, and both farm-fresh hen and duck eggs. Add to this a loaf of Italian Rustica bread, lemon poppyseed muffins, fragrant herbs and Meyer lemons, and let the flavors of spring delight everyone at the table.

Here are a few recipes ideas for the week:

Sautéed Fiddlehead Ferns
These bright green fronds lend themselves to many of the same uses as asparagus. Here they shine with a simple dressing of butter and lemon juice.

Asparagus with Salt & Pepper Whipped Cream
Topped with decadent cream, this simple side dish is just delicious.

Grilled Asparagus with Meyer Lemon Vinaigrette
A fresh blend of lemon juice, olive oil and adds big flavor to grilled asparagus stalks.

Rhubarb-Thyme Jam
This sweet-and-savory spread is delicious on toasted crostini with a little crumbled chevre; or, add it to your morning oatmeal for an unexpected touch!

Roasted Rhubarb
This rosy-colored roasted dish makes for an excellent dessert, especially served with vanilla ice cream!
