csa summer 2023: week 10

Trying to get caught up here ... the tenth CSA box had tons of fruit! Two kinds of peaches, nectarines, two kinds of plums, a couple of pears, tomatoes, onions, leeks (!), colorful "snacking" peppers and corn on the cob.

As always, the corn was eaten immediately; amazingly, it's still pretty good for how late in the season it is.  The leeks and some peppers went into a tofu scramble - leeks are a LOT of work to get all the dirt out - and more peppers were in a stir fry.  I tried to make a ginger-peach refrigerator jam but it didn't thicken up, so I ended up with ginger-peach compote for oatmeal.  More peaches, plus a serano pepper from an earlier box, went into a green smoothie.  And since there are still more peaches, I've got my eye on a spicy peach BBQ sauce recipe that will also use up some of those hot peppers.
