Share Notes
- Potatoes: There will be a few more rounds of potatoes before the end of the season, but this will be the last for the Sangre variety. Use these red-skinned white-fleshed beauties your favorite way this week.
- Winter Squash: The Delicata variety in particular has relatively thin skin (so thin you can eat it, no peeling needed) and a creamy and nutty flavor making is great for baking and steaming. Delicata should keep for several weeks in a cool and dry part of the kitchen away from direct sunlight, although due to its thinner skin is known to not keep for quite as long as all the other thicker skinned winter squashes.
