RECIPES


Dandelion Sorbet with Violet Petals

The ingenious Salt & Straw ice cream crew has created a dandelion sorbet to make your hours of weeding extra rewarding!

Pasta with Purple Sprouting Broccoli

A delicious, easy and nutritious dish that takes advantage of the tender purple sprouting broccoli that is a hallmark of Oregon spring. Use the same technique with broccoli raab (pictured), asparagus or snap peas.

Frittata with Potatoes and Leeks

This is a quick, go-to dinner for a busy day. The options are literally infinite as to what to include. In this version, the winning combo includes potatoes, leeks, goat cheese and parsley.

Lemon Butter Sauce

Although it’s hard to deny that a bowl of melted butter with lemon juice squeezed on top is a wonderful artichoke dip, this very simple emulsion unites the two flavors into one creamy sauce.

Tarragon-Garlic Scape Aioli

This tangy, springy aioli makes a perfect dipping sauce for artichokes or a topping for homemade burgers.

Stewed Leeks and Goat Cheese Tartine

This hearty open-faced sandwich can be served as an appetizer or for dinner, with a big salad on the side.

Green Garlic and Greens Frittata

Frittatas are one of the quickest go-to dinners at the end of a busy day. The options are literally infinite as to what to include, which is especially handy for CSA members!
