Using Your Share - June Edition

Tag: 

Every week we receive wonderful farm fresh foods and then have to figure out how to use them all before the next week when more wonderful farm fresh foods arrive. Sometimes it is just a challenge to figure out what the item IS, let alone how to eat it all before it goes bad or you are inundated with more yummy food.

Jerusalem Artichoke Fritters

Category: 

This week I was intrigued by the inclusion of jerusalem artichokes in our initial season share (I thought for sure we'd get radishes!).  I didn't want to eat them raw, nor did I want to roast them, so I searched the internet for something interesting and tasty-sounding.  I found that in these jerusalem artichoke fritters, which I prepared last night.  

I loved them!  The combination of the jerusalem artichokes, carrots, and shallots is lovely, and the chive-lime sour cream is wonderful.  They are easy to put together and take only about a half hour, start to finish, to make.
