The “Show” – Springdell Summer CSA Pick-up #4


Springdell is such a happy place for me and I’m sure for all of you as well.  My weekly excitement started on my ride over to pick up share box #4.  The share boxes were noticably heavier this week, carrying awesome produce from the farm straight to our tables.  Here is a look at this weeks box and the add-ons.

And now a word from Sarah:

My quick recipe for today uses the garlic from last weeks share and some fresh rosemary from the pick your own herb garden.  I made this, spread it on 2 racks of lamb and it baked into a fantastic, flavorful crust. 
imageLet the lamb sit at room temp for 1 hour then coat in this mixture before baking:
2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary leaves
1-2 garlic cloves, minced (remember these little guys hold quite a punch)
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 racks of lamb

Place the lamb in a preheated 450 degree oven for 25 minutes for a medium rare.  Remove from the oven and tent it with foil for 15 minutes.  Serve and enjoy!
