The Weekly Pannier, December 12, 2009

Glad to see some old favorites back, such as the sweet potatoes. We have a recipe for patate douce we love: broiling diced patate doux with chopped garlic and rosemary. With these ingredients for which there can be no substitutes, we have to wait until the rare patate douce shows up in order to have it. We can do great things with carrots, but we can get bio carrots almost any time at the supermarket. To have bio sweet potatoes, however: now that's a treat to savor.

In the Weekly Pannier: eggs, broccoli, salad, kohlrabi, fennel bulbs, sweet potatoes, leeks, apples, bananas, and pears.
