Fall Colors: Lettuce with Rainbow Swiss Chard
Add the beauty and flavor of rainbow Swiss chard to the crisp goodness of crunchy lettuces. This hydrating blend includes electrolytes and vitamins that help with colds. This colorful blend packs a big crunch, and can come alive with a little sea salt. Add avocado and this week’s marjoram for a hearty salad — or try them with the warmth of kohlrabi microgreens and turnips. This blend has a unique flavor and nutrients that make it a nice addition to smoothies.
Kohlrabi Micro
Kohlrabi microgreens have an earthy, warm taste. Similar to a mix of broccoli micros and radish micros, these super nutritious greens are a perfect reason to eat local! Kohlrabi microgreens help to fortify your immune system, and are a great addition to any family meal. Mix them into sauces, tacos, sandwiches, or top a seasonal dish with these unique micros.
Marjoram
Marjoram is a majorly tasty medicinal herb, used for centuries as a mild antibiotic. This sweeter, more delicate version of oregano is best used to add dimension and warmth to a dish. Try it in a stew or bisque, or add to pasta or a mixed grill. Marjoram can be used in high quantities without being overly dominant as a flavor profile. Tomato and broth-based soups will shine when marjoram is added to the mix. Add to savory sauces, marinades and glazes, and to add flavor to egg and rice-based dishes.
Turnips
Seasonal warmth, spice, and earthy flavor turns a regular meal into an autumnal experience. These freshly harvested versatile root vegetables add layers of taste and texture. Famously good raw, Hakurei turnips can enhance meats and kabobs from the grill. Try them with some added olive oil and prepare on the stove for 30 mins. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or sea salt, or use creatively with miso, ginger, or orange. You can shave them into any dish. For a treat, douse with truffle oil!
Frosted Peppermint
Crisp autumnal air makes it the perfect time for this frosty treat! Bring the crisp straight to your door with the woodsy pick-me-up of frosted peppermint. We love to add this star to warm teas and cocktails. Add to spreads and jams or buttered toast. Serve with fruits or add to gelato and chocolate-based desserts. Cooling peppermint can help a headache or a seasonal cold.
