I live in San Francisco, and my husband and I get a Terra Firma Farm CSA veggie box once a week. It has forced me to be mindful about what I cook, and to explore new recipes -- what do you do with persimmons? However, I find that most weeks I have some piece of greenery left wilting in the crisper, some piece of fruit molding in the fruit bowl. This blog signals a new commitment to using up all of the veggies. I will share recipes and ideas, and hope that you will share yours as well.

Tuesday, October 11: Good Ole Stir-fry

The thing about a week without a plan is that you just make your go-to recipes, and for me, a tofu or tempeh stir-fry is one of those things. For this reason, I keep some ginger on hand at all times.
Marinate the tofu in soy sauce and garlic. Start with minced ginger and garlic in the bottom of the pan, then add firm veggies (carrots, onions, zucchini), then tofu and less hearty veggies (peppers, green beans, snow peas). Add some sesame oil, some rice wine vinegar, and some soy sauce to season, as well as cayenne pepper if you have not added a spicy pepper already. Et voilà!
What's left:
- 1/2 cantaloupe
- 2 onions
