Beating farmshares into foods
What I learned today: just about any vegetable becomes edible when you add tomato, onion, garlic, basil and red wine.
The mystery greens that have been in the fridge for a week and a half hadn't even wilted. Maybe they were plastic? I think the broccoli of the same vintage had gone to seed.
In any case, I had a bunch of the ingredients to make ratatouille and wasn't inclined to go out and buy zucchini, so I substituted the greens and added some red wine. The result was nearly two quarts of hearty vegetable stew which is quite edible, if a bit chewy.
