Karl’s Salsa
“This salsa was created by my partner, Karl, in the midst of last September’s tomato abundance while I was busy canning a bunch of whole tomatoes. The addition of sweet Italian frying peppers and parsley really makes this salsa special. It’s a wonderful blend of sweet and savory to celebrate summer’s end. This makes approximately one pint-size serving of salsa. Enjoy!”
-Perri Krywick, 3RFA Admin Assistant

Ingredients
1lb Heirloom Tomatoes, cored and sliced in half (Heron Pond Farm)
2 Sweet Italian Frying Peppers (Hungry Heart Farm)
1-2 Jalapeno Peppers (Heron Pond Farm)
1 Habanero Pepper (optional for extra spice)
1 Tbs Sunflower Oil (Yost Farms)
1/2 Yellow Onion, diced (Brandmoore Farm)
2- 3 Tbs Lemon Juice
1 large Garlic Clove, minced (Willoughby Farm)
1 Tbs fresh Parsley, chopped (Wild Fern Farm)
A generous pinch of Cumin
Salt and Pepper

Directions

Set your oven to broil, place the peppers and tomatoes, cut side down, on a baking sheet. Turn the peppers a few times while broiling and cook until the peels are blackened in parts. Remove the peels if desired and chop the tomatoes and peppers making sure to save all the juices. Set them aside to cool.

In a medium pan set to medium heat, add oil, and saute the onion, garlic, cumin salt, and pepper until the onion is soft and a little translucent. Add tomatoes, peppers, and lemon juice and cook to reduce the liquid for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat to let cool and stir in fresh parsley. Adjust the seasoning to taste once cooled.

Serve with Vida Tortilla Chips!

** Codman Community Farms
————————————————————

The original Codman family farm, sometimes referred to as “The Grange,” was established in the early 19th century on the former estate of Chambers Russell, one of Lincoln, MA’s founders. The farm had been in continuous operation for over 150 years, with respectable dairy, vegetable and fruit operations. It was one of only a handful of working farms in Lincoln remaining after the Second World War. When Dorothy Codman died in 1967, her will provided for the transfer of the barns and acreage to the Ogden Codman Trust. In 1970, the town of Lincoln purchased the property, and in 1973 voted at town meeting to create a nonprofit Codman Community Farms, Inc., to run its operation (https://codmancommunityfarms.org/) .

Founded in 1973 by citizens interested in continuing the farming tradition of Lincoln, CCF is a non-profit agricultural enterprise. It began as a part-time, volunteer operation and over the years has grown, thanks to the myriad of volunteers that helped along the way.

Whipoorwill Dairy Farm in Kensington, NH (http://whippoorwillfarmnh.com/) started in 2018. Megan and Thatcher bought their cows from the Bodwell Farm and both attended UNH for Dairy Management and Sustainable Agriculture. They milk 60 Holstein cows, cross some of their cows with beef for their beef herd, breed pigs and raise for meat, chickens for meat and eggs, turkeys and ducks for eggs. They have a small flock of goats and sheep for weed control and cute spring babies! Their cows graze from April till November and then are fed a balanced diet by their nutritionists. This month, Whippoorwill started their own ice cream business – buying in ice cream mix from Contoocook Creamery, and creating their own recipes!

Poached Pears
“Pears have always been close to my heart. My Italian ancestors had a thriving pear farm in Calabria and my grandmother used to place bottles of brandy over a few pears as they grew on the tree in order to preserve the fruit. Poached pears, sometimes in this brandy, were a quick and easy dessert in my house growing up but, they can stand up to the elegance of any dinner party! I hope this becomes one of your new favorites too.”
-Perri Krywick, 3RFA Admin Assistant

Ingredients
2 pears, peeled and cored from the bottom (Applecrest Farm)
1c water (add extra 1/2 c if not using alcohol)
6 T sugar
1/2 c brandy, St. Germain or a crisp white wine (Optional)
1/2 tsp cardamom
Half of 1 lemon, lime or a small orange

Directions

Combine all ingredients except for pears in a thick-bottomed pot. Let it come to a boil and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 1 minute.

Turn the pot down to medium heat, add pears, cover with a lid and simmer. Spoon some of the poaching liquid onto the pears a few times while cooking. The pears should be done in 10-15 minutes or once they are very soft and easily pricked with a fork.

Remove pears with a slotted spoon and serve with the sauce spooned over top.

Serve with vanilla ice cream!

Thank you for helping us feed delicious, local food to neighbors in need through the
Local Food Donation and SNAP Delivery Donation programs.

** Read more about our donations program!
————————————————————

Check out the new Community page on our website
(https://www.threeriverfa.com/donation/) sharing some of the community resource
centers we partner with, to deliver food to on a regular basis.

We exercise the belief that local food is for everyone by providing nutrient rich
produce to the food insecure; simultaneously reducing waste and increasing income to
local producers. Three River Farmers Alliance has created a simple, efficient program
for providing weekly donations from our generous contributors used to purchase excess
crops at cost from local farms. We then distribute produce to local food pantries
within our community. We use additional donations to supplement credits for SNAP
eligible Veggie-Go customers ensuring all donations directly assist in the fight
against hunger.

As we near the colder months, nutrition becomes even more important. In order to
expand upon our existing services, we ask if you are able, to add a financial
donation to your Veggie-GO order this week. We are so grateful for your generosity
and community support!

Mushroom and Greens Ramen
Ramen is one of my favorite rainy day dishes and since mushrooms grow best in wet weather, it seems like the perfect pairing to add some earthiness to this dish. I also love adding grated daikon radish to many noodle dishes, including this one. It’s referred to as “Oroshi” in Japanese and is sometimes served on cold noodles but I think it adds a nice depth of flavor to this ramen. -Perri Krywick, TRFA Admin Assistant

Ingredients

1 tablespoon sunflower oil (Yost Farms)
3 cloves garlic, minced (Brandmoore & Willoughby Farms)
2 leeks, washed well and sliced thin
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
6 cups mushroom or chicken stock or water (Vernon Family Farm)
4 teaspoons soy sauce
1/4 cup grated daikon radish (Harlow Farm) (Use a very fine grater or blender. It should be a paste)
1/2 pound fresh assorted mushrooms, sliced (Dunk’s Mushrooms)
1 package of Valicenti Ramen Noodles (GF and Vegan) (Valicenti Pasta Farm)
1 bunch of assorted braising greens, stems removed and diced, leaves shredded (Wild Fern Farm)
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Optional Toppings:
Bacon, fried, and cubed (Kellie Brook Farm)
Soft Boiled Egg, sliced in half (Julie’s Happy Hens)
Scallions, thinly sliced

Directions

In a heavy-bottomed pot, add sunflower oil, garlic, leeks, and ginger. Cook until it is softened for about 5 minutes. Next, add soy sauce, daikon, greens stems, and mushrooms, and cook another 8 minutes. Add stock or water and let it come to a boil. Once the pot is boiling, add the ramen and cook per package instructions until the ramen is tender. Turn off the heat, add greens so they wilt but don’t overcook, and season with black pepper and rice wine vinegar. Serve immediately and enjoy!
