Sunshine, beach days, camping, cookouts—there's a lot to love about summer. My favorite part of summer is when the seasonal summer vegetables hit my community farmer's market. Strolling past table after table laden with freshly picked berries, heirloom tomatoes, and green vegetables galore makes me happy deep in my soul.  Summer's also ripe (no pun intended) for getting out and digging in the dirt in your own backyard or patio planter boxes. Even if you don't have a lot of space or a green thumb, you can get started with a little herb garden or a single tomato plant. There's something incredibly satisfying about eating food you grew, even if it's just sprinkling fresh parsley over your spaghetti squash chicken parmesan. You'll feel like you're starring in your own cooking show once you master that technique of sprinkling herbs and finishing salt from high above the plate. Bam! The point is, fresh fruits and vegetables are one of the highlights of the season, so take full advantage of what these summer months have to offer. 8 Summer Fruits and Vegetables We Love Asparagus Depending on where you live, you might be able to harvest asparagus anywhere from late winter to early summer. Green asparagus is most common, but don't miss the opportunity to try the purple or white varieties if you find them. All types of asparagus are delicious grilled, sautéed, or roasted, but take care not to overcook it. Limp, slimy asparagus is less than appealing. Ot, try shaving raw asparagus into salads using a vegetable peeler. How to store asparagus: Trim the ends off the spears, then stand the asparagus upright in a jar of water in the fridge. Asparagus only keeps for a few days, so use it asap. How to preserve asparagus: Asparagus can be frozen or pressure canned, though both change the texture significantly (and not always pleasantly). Also try pickling it. How to freeze asparagus: Trim off the woody ends before freezing. Optionally chop the spears into two or three pieces each. Blanch the asparagus for two minutes for thin spears or up to four minutes for thick spears. Freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to an airtight container. Try this recipe: Asparagus Dip Berries Freshly picked berries are one of the absolute highlights of summer. Even low-carb and keto folks make allowances for berries due to their high nutritional value and relatively low carbohydrate content compared to a lot of other fruits. You'll find all manner of berries at your summer farmer's market, including blueberries, strawberries, and "brambles," the family of berries that includes raspberries, boysenberries, blackberries, huckleberries, and marionberries, among others. How to store berries: To wash or not to wash, that is the question… and there's no clear answer. Some people argue that you shouldn't wash berries until you're ready to eat them. Others claim that you should give them a dunk in a 3:1 solution of water and white vinegar to kill mold spores and … Continue reading "Seasonal Eating: Summer Fruits and Vegetables"
