Creamy Salad Dressing Hacks :: Chef Mark Cleveland @ Hungry Harvest ::

When veggies and fruits are plentiful make some creamy blender dressings & dips. Work w/ what you have, experiment & taste as you create. I’ve created 3 ideas with items from recent Harvest boxes. The first uses our Pear & Citrus Flash Pickle as its flavor base. Make & keep Harvest Salad Cubes for ease of preparation too.

Spuds Greens & Onions :: Chef Mark Cleveland @ Hungry Harvest ::

-->

Amount	Measure	Ingredient	Prep Method
2	Medium	Onions	Half moon slices
2	Tablespoons	Dry marsala	Or water or broth
1	Tablespoon	Butter
2	Tablespoons	Evoo
½	Teaspoon each	Sea salt & black pepper

Caramelize the onions over medium heat in a good heavy bottomed skillet. Stir often, it takes about 30 mins, You’ll have a good fond on the bottom of the pan.

Set the pan aside. You’ll add the greens and potatoes to the onions later. Meanwhile Cook:

3	Bunches	Greens
1 ½	Cups	Greens cooking liquid

In a large pot w/ a splash of water and a pinch of salt and pepper. My favorite mix is mustard, chard and kale. Cook them covered over med high heat. Once they wilt, turn off the heat and remove the cover and let them cool. Rough chop, save the broth.

Add them back to the caramelized onion pan w/

Quart

Cooked yellow potatoes

Broken

If you find mustard greens too strong, add in a diced or grated apple

Medium

Apple

Optional, diced or grated

Set over medium low heat. Scrape up fond for flavor. Warm potatoes through.

Serve w/ squeeze of fresh lemon or lime.
