Next week we’ll be picking the first stone fruit of 2011, a new variety of peach called “Super Z”.
Things are really moving now…. We’re actually seeing fruit on some early varieties! The Apache apricots have fruit, as do the Honey Rich apriums. And our newest addition to early harvest varieties is the Super Zee peach, which also already has fruit.
This simple recipe can be prepared well under an hour. As we continue to move into citrus season, consider trying it out with oranges, tangerines, or other heavy-skinned fragrant citrus. If substituting, based on average sizing, two oranges or three tangerines may be used in the place of the grapefruit.
Farmer Al, Becky, and Family are all taking a much deserved vacation this week. Farmer Al’s newsletter will be back next week, meanwhile I have some CSA updates for you.
