Spinach

Spinach for Ripley Farm's organic CSA farm shares in Dover Foxcroft Maine

 

Availability: October-November

Storage tips: Refrigerate in a plastic bag for at least a week.

How to eat: Spinach can be eaten raw in salads or as a cooking green. Simple steaming is accomplished by rinsing the spinach well and placing into a pan. Do not add additional water and steam until tender; there will be enough water on the spinach from rinsing to accomplish this without the greens getting too soggy. Top with butter, salt, and pepper.

How to presereve:  FREEZE:  Blanch 2 minutes and freeze in bags for 6 months.  Easy and still as delicious!
