*****************************************
I altered one of my favorite baked fennel recipes to a stovetop braising recipe because I can't bear to turn the oven on in this kind of heat.
Braised Fennel with Garlic Scapes
*cut one fennel bulb into eight segments.
*put 2 tsp olive oil into a pan.
*on medium heat add the fennel and cover, stirring and turning pieces occasionally so they dont get too brown.
*squeeze a tablespoon or so of lemon juice into the pan
*add ¼ c water and cover for 10 minutes or so, chop 2 garlic scapes into small pieces and add to the fennel; keep covered until soft when pierced with a fork.
*salt to taste. White pepper if you like.
*garnish with fennel tops.

Hey christy and derek - I just checked and saw that the name "echollective" is available on twitter - yall should grab it before somebody squats on it!
Also, I chatted with some members at the mkt yesterday - they were extremely pleased with the CSA and their share-boxes. They commented that they were impressed with the quality and cleanliness of the veg!
Kudos to farmer and crew hands!
