In the box - and how to store it
This week's Recipes
Shopping List
1. In the box (in order of what to eat first):
Strawberries - These berries are the first of the season and may be a little under-ripe. They'll sweeten up and get better as Spring moves into summer. Eat these ASAP, rinse the clam-shell container, and return the container when you pick up your next box. You can stack the container in the cooler.
Lettuce - Keep damp in an airtight container in the fridge. Keeps for one week.
Spinach - Store loose in an open container in the crisper, cool as soon as possible. Spinach loves to stay cold.
Arugula - Wash and dry well. Wrap with a damp paper towel and store in a glass container in the fridge. Lasts up to 5 days.
Oregano - Wrap in a damp paper towel and store in a plastic bag in the fridge. Lasts one week or more. To dry, leave bound around the stems and hang.
Spring Garlic - Store in your crisper. Best used within a week but may last a little longer.
Chard and Dino Kale - Remove any bands, twist ties, etc. Most greens must be kept in an air‐tight container with a damp cloth to keep them from drying out. Kale, collard greens, and chard do well in a cup of water on the counter or fridge. Do not wash until ready to use.
Fava Beans - Store favas in the refrigerator in a tightly sealed container. They'll last about a week.
Spring Onions - Store in your crisper. Best used within a week but may last a little longer.
New potatoes - Store potatoes in a cool, well ventilated place. Don't wash the potatoes before storing as dampness promotes early spoilage.
