Pea Shoots - Full Bushel Farm, Medical Lake, WA - Pea shoots—also known as pea sprouts—are the young leaves and stem of traditional garden pea plants. While a pea plant can take 60-70 days to mature, pea shoots are harvested after just 2-4 weeks. They are very young and tender, with a distinctive, sweet pea flavor. We can't wait to try this simple Pea Shoots Recipe!
Spinach - Welcome Table Farm, Walla Walla, WA - Raw spinach has a mild, slightly sweet taste that can be refreshing in salads, while its flavor becomes more acidic and robust when it is cooked. We love adding it to smoothies for our daily dose of greens! Enjoy this harvest of the iron-rich green in our Coconut Creamed Spinach LINC Box recipe!
Rainbow Carrots - Elithorp Farm, Deer Park, WA - These rainbow carrots are a mix of varieties picked at their immature stages for young harvest. These varieties make for a perfect array of tender-crisp, sweet and earthy carrots.
Roma Tomatoes - Royal Produce, Royal City, WA - Their bright red, smooth skin, high sugar and acid levels, and low moisture content compared to other tomato varieties, Roma tomatoes are ideal for cooking down into a tomato sauce or paste. Unlike beefsteak tomatoes, Roma tomatoes are not as juicy or as sweet which is why they're more commonly cooked than eaten raw. However, they taste delicious in salads and even in sandwiches!
Red Blush Onion- Elithorp Farm, Deer Park, WA - A cross between yellow and red onions, these are large, globe-shaped onions with a beautiful, rosy-pink champagne hue. It’s the perfect versatile cooking onion- serve raw using its spice to dress up any salad, or carmelize it over low heat to bring out its sweetness.
Sweet Peppers - Royal Produce, Royal City, WA - A delicious treat! Perfect for an on the go snack or summer veggie platter. Pair with our Late Summer Seven Layer Dip, or our INW Hummus LINC Box Recipes and you have the ultimate party dish!
