Our 6th CSA from Harmony Valley Farms (blog) included:
- Red leaf lettuce,
- Kohlrabi,
- Spinach,
- French Breakfast Radish,
- Purple Scallions,
- Garlic Scapes,
- Yukina Savoy,
- Asparagus,
- Rhubarb,
- Saute Mix, and
- fresh Basil
What in the world are we supposed to do with all of these? Part of the problem is that I’ve never heard of some of these things and they don’t come labeled. What is Yukina Savoy? I mean wikipedia doesn’t even know what it is. Luckily, some people do.

Yukina Savoy is an Asian leafy green similar to tatsoi. ‘Savoy’ usually refers to a curly-leafed variety, as opposed to a flat-leafed variety (e.g. savoy spinach vs. flat-leaf spinach). I’ve never actually eaten yukina savoy, but I imagine you braize it like you would the saute mix or mix it in small quantities to spice up a lettuce salad. Enjoy all that good Harmony Valley produce!
Thanks Brenda. I’ll take those ideas into consideration!
