US CITRUS
Dr. Mani Skaria, a leader in the U.S. citrus industry in McAllen, Texas, came up with micro-budding, creating trees ready to plant within 4 months. Now he has a 550-acre orchard capable of producing higher yield, disease-resistant fruit in half the time of conventional orchards. His no-spray, non-gassing "clean citrus" program increases yields while reducing land and resource use. The mission of US Citrus is to get "high-quality, special citrus fruits" to you, straight from their groves! What does THIS MEAN FOR YOU?
MANDARINS

Visit theyellowbirdtable.com to see boxes of Yellowbird past!
Ingredients:
1 head of fresh Tatsoi
3 small ripe Mandarin oranges (can also use navel)
½ red bell pepper
A few slices of a red onion
A pinch of salt
¼ teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
½ tablespoon of Dijon mustard
½ tablespoon orange creamed honey
1 tablespoon of Catawba jam
1.5 tablespoons of blood orange olive oil
Juice of half a lemon
Directions:
1. Peel and thinly slice the Mandarins and place them in a large salad bowl.
2. Thinly slice the red onion and wash the slices under cold water (washes off some of the pungency) and then dry them with a paper towel.
3. Slice the red bell pepper into bite sized pieces and place them in the bowl.
4. Wash the head of Tatsoi under cold water and dry it completely with kitchen towel or in spinner. Using a pair of kitchen shears, cut the leaves off the Tatsoi and place in salad bowl (The stems of Tatsoi are edible but might be stringy in the salad. Add the stems to veggie broth instead!).
5. Using a sharp knife, coarsely chop the roasted almonds and add to bowl, along with the onion pieces.
6. Combine the Dijon mustard, jam, honey, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper in a small dish and whisk them all together till the liquids get emulsified to make a dressing.
7. Drizzle the dressing over the salad bowl and toss everything together (gently) with a pair of salad tongs.
8. Serve the salad immediately so that the leaves do not wilt from the dressing. ENJOY TATSOI!!
Late lies the wintry sun a-bed,
A frosty, fiery sleepy-head;
Blinks but an hour or two; and then,
A blood-red orange, sets again.

CHINESE HOLIDAY DINNER
...sit back and let Chef Brook Maikut do your cooking this year.
Available for preorder here through December 16,
delivery the week before Christmas.
Brook Maikut is a lover of life and beauty. Growing up, Brook took inspiration from his grandmother's ability to make amazing meals from nothing, and his mother's ability to host fully encompassing dinner parties. It's this passion that stayed with him to envision a whole new experience for Central Ohio.
After ideating, founding, and opening Comune Restaurant in Columbus, OH, he expanded his vision to local food systems. He started creating family style private chef experiences for select clientele and then opened a hyper local Oat Milk company.
As he saw the most upstream aspect of food being the soil itself, he relocated to Knox County, to develop what he believes is one of the most important relationships of his life - his relationship with the land he lives upon. In 2021, he started an elderberry farm in Knox County with his wife Lauren, where they raise heritage animals and work to create living systems, combining their love for food, art, and life.

Creamy Mushroom Pasta
(From Recipe Tin Eats)
Ingredients:
12oz fettuccine or linguine
4 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
20 oz mushrooms, sliced 1/8" thick
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 cup white wine, dry
1 cup chicken or veggie broth/stock
1 1/2 cups cream, heavy
2/3 cup parmesan, finely grated
Extra parmesan, for serving
Parsley, roughly chopped (optional)
Chicken breast, cut into 2 inch pieces and sautéed (optional)
Directions:
Cook pasta in salted water for 1 minute less than time per packet (start this mid mushroom cook). Just before draining, scoop out 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
Melt butter and heat oil in a large skillet over high heat.
Add mushrooms and cook, stirring regularly. When they start to sweat, add a pinch of salt and pepper.
When pretty golden (about 4 - 5 minutes), add garlic and cook until garlic is golden and mushroom is golden.
Stand back and add wine (it will be steamy!!), stir, scraping the bottom of the skillet. Simmer rapidly until wine is mostly evaporated and winey smell is gone.
Add broth, cream, parmesan, salt and pepper. Stir to dissolve parmesan, add chicken if desired and simmer for 2 minutes, stirring regularly.
Transfer pasta into sauce, toss for 1 - 2 minutes until sauce thickens and coats pasta. If sauce gets too thick (rather than slick, see video), add a splash of reserved pasta cooking water.
Garnish with parsley and serve immediately with extra parmesan!

Sweet Potato Casserole
a.k.a. sweet potatoes' destiny
(From Tastes Better From Scratch, Food Network, and My Aunt Barbie)
Ingredients:
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for buttering the baking dish
3 to 4 large sweet potatoes (about 1 3/4 pounds), peeled and cubed
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup all-purpose or gluten-free flour
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup chopped pecans
Directions:
For the sweet potatoes: Add 1 3/4 pounds peeled and cubed sweet potatoes to a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and cool. Mash the sweet potatoes.
For the filling: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish.
Whisk together the butter, mashed sweet potatoes, milk, brown sugar, vanilla, salt and eggs in a large bowl. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
For the topping: Combine the flour, brown sugar, butter and salt in a medium bowl until moist and the mixture clumps together. Stir in the pecans. Sprinkle the mixture over the top of the sweet potatoes in an even layer. Bake until mostly set in the center and golden on top, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve hot. Not cold.

Watercress Salad
A peppery, refreshing addition to your Thanksgiving table!

Apple Cheddar Scones with Honey Glaze
(From Stemilt.com)
Ingredients:
1 pound (2 cups, about 2 medium) Honeycrisp apples, peeled, cored and cut into small chunks
1/2 tbsp coconut oil
6 tbsp granulated sugar, divided
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
6 tbsp (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, chilled
1/4 cup sour cream
1 large egg
1/2 cup powdered sugar
3 tbsp honey
Warm water
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Saute apples and 1 tablespoon sugar in pan with oil until apples start to soften, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and put in the refrigerator to cool.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix together flour, 4 tablespoons sugar, baking powder and salt. Grate chilled butter into the flour using a grater (or cut with knives) and use your fingers to combine into a coarse dough.
In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, egg, cheddar cheese and apples.
Add to dry mixture and combine with a spoon just until mixed (do not overmix).
Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle on a floured surface. Cut into 6 wedges and transfer onto baking sheet at least 1-inch apart and sprinkle with sugar.
Bake 30 minutes or until golden brown.
While scones are cooling, make glaze by mixing together powdered sugar and honey.
Add water until you get a glaze thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Drizzle scones and eat!
Good food for all.

TOKYO BEKANA IS CALLING...FROM EVERY BOX!
(From Edible Uprising Farm)
Tokyo Bekana is a type of Asian cabbage, and we describe it as a cross between Napa cabbage, bok choy and lettuce.
Tokyo Bekana can be eaten raw in salads, or cooked.
Roasting, grilling or searing brings out a delicious nutty flavor.
Add to stir-fries for a succulent crunch.
When searching for recipes, try looking for recipes that use bok choy or Napa cabbage, and substitute Tokyo Bekana instead.

From Tree to Cider Press to Your Box! Apple cider for ALL this week!
Apple Cider Cookies
(From mycookiejourney.com)
COOKIE DOUGH
1 cup Butter unsalted
½ cup Light brown sugar
½ cup Sugar white
3 TBSP Apple cider
½ tsp Vanilla Extract
2 ¾ cups All purpose flour
1 tsp Baking powder
½ tsp Ground cinnamon
¼ tsp Ground cloves
½ tsp All spice
¼ tsp Kosher Salt
1 Granny Smith apples diced
½ cup Raisins
½ cup Chopped walnuts
Lemon juice To squeeze onto diced apple pieces
APPLE CIDER GLAZE
1 cup Powdered sugar
2 TBSP Apple cider
⅛ tsp Cinnamon
½ tsp All spice
Instructions:
In a bowl, measure the flour, baking powder, salt, allspice, cinnamon, and ground cloves, run a whisk through to blend. Dice the Granny apple and squeeze the juice of ½ lemon on top to keep them from turning brown.
In a mixer, blend the butter and sugars for a couple of minutes at medium speed. Add the apple cider and vanilla extract and mix. At lower speed, add the flour mixture about a third at a time until flour is incorporated, turn the mixer off. Add the diced apple, raisins, walnuts, and mix through by hand for about a minute. Wrap the top of the bowl with plastic wrap loosely and refrigerate for about ½ hour.
Preheat oven to 350°. Using a medium cookie scoop, put 12 scoops onto a parchment-lined cookie pan and bake for 14-16 minutes. Leave the cookies on the pan for a minute or two before moving to a cooling rack.
For apple cider glaze, combine powdered sugar, apple cider, cinnamon, and allspice and mix until smooth consistency. After the cookies have cooled, take ½ teaspoon of glaze and drizzle over each cookie.
