Ah, we are slowly inching towards spring, but in the meantime we have to make it through the
gloomiest month of the year. It’s just as difficult as last month (if not harder) to find a bounty of seasonal produce. Difficult but still possible! Especially when equipped with a killer recipe or two, making use of those pantry staples and frozen sauces from the summer months. Whatever you’re working with, here’s what you can find in season in the mid-Atlantic:
- Apples
- Beets
- Carrots
- Cilantro
- Fennel
- Kohlrabi
- Leeks
- Lettuce
- Mint
- Mushrooms
- Onions
- Oregano
- Parsley
- Sage
- Sorrel
- Spinach
- Sweet Potatoes
- Turnips
- Winter Squash
Recipe of the Month: Mushroom and Greens Soba Noodle Soup from The Kitchn
Try that soup with spinach or sorrel, to make it even more seasonal.
