Each week we bring a number of flavored noodles, plain noodles, hand-made ravioli, sauces, pestos, and prepared foods. We update this menu each week, so look for what is coming to your local market this weekend.
February 25-26, 2012
We smell Spring and Fresh Watercress…
Ruth’s Watercress Soup- Watercress, potatoes, leeks, onions, salt & pepper. Made from Julia Child’s original recipe for Potage au Cresson. Ruth loves this soup and has eaten it with watercress that grows on this farm since she was a girl. A taste of early Spring! ($6 for 16oz tub)
Chicken Noodle Soup- A favorite for many- made with our rich chicken & stock, tomatoes, carrots, turnips, celery, onions, white wine and our fresh pasta. ($6 for 16oz tub)
Plain Noodle Varieties ($5/10oz. Box) serves 2 people
Winter Wheat & Oat, Whole Spelt & Oat
Flavored Noodle Varieties ($5/10oz. Box) serves 2 people
Lemon Verbena Pasta- A unique twist on lemon pepper pasta that you commonly find at many Italian markets, this pasta is made with chopped parsley and lemon verbena. It is an excellent side dish or a base to a seafood entree with a Thai flair.
Tarragon Parsley- A subtle flavor best served with a light tomato sauce or a salsa fresca made with cherry tomatoes. It’s also delicious on its own with just a little olive oil as a side dish to a roasted meat.
Hand Made Ravioli ($7/box of 18 vegetarian ravioli, $9/box of 18 meat filled ravioli) serves 2 people
Butternut Squash Ravioli- A buttery blend of deep orange squash and ricotta, this ravioli is best served with a sage butter or a fresh mix of greens that have been lightly sauteed in olive oil. When pesto is in season– the combination of the two is divine!
Basil Pesto Ravioli- A classic Italian flavor without pine nuts. They can be served with a tomato sauce or just a little bit of olive oil. Very flavorful.
Home Cooked Sauces (prices vary)
Amatriciana Sauce- A twist on a classic Roman recipe, we use gin instead of vodka, and lots of coriander with a bit of cayenne pepper to give it some heat. It goes beautifully with our spelt & oat pasta.
($7/ 16 oz. tub)
Tomato Tarragon- Made with carrots and tarragon, it has a sweeter taste than a garlic/tomato sauce would. ($6/ 16 oz. tub)
Prepared Foods (prices vary)
Lasagna Noodle Bakes: Smith Meadows Pasta baked with bolognese meat sauce or vegetarian sauce, mixed greens & ricotta & feta cheese. ($10/box)
Mixed Greens Empanadas: Garlicky blend of kale, swiss chard, mustard greens and creamy ricotta cheese go together perfectly in these empanadas. Made with a vegetarian butter crust. ($8/ box of 3)
Sausage Empanadas- Made our habanero spicy sausage and a blend of carrots, celery & onions in a lard based dough, they are even harder to resist than the beef empanadas. ($8/ box of 3)
Salsa Beef Empanadas- Made with our ground beef mixed in a blend of tomatoes, habanero peppers and cayenne pepper. These are spicy and flavorful. ($8/ box of 3)
Chicken Pot Pie- A savory, flaky pie for two stuffed with our chicken and a creamy medley of peas, carrots, celery and onions seasoned with sage and nutmeg in a rich white wine gravy. Delicious! ($12/pie)
Beef Pot Pie- A rich beef stew made with our beef stew cubes, mushrooms, carrots, celery, peas, potatoes and tomatoes in a rich red wine gravy wrapped in our signature flaky crust. ($10/pie)
Rosemary & Sage Oat Cakes- Made with oats, spelt flour, grass-fed pork lard, and herbs from our garden, these are a Scottish tradition with a little flair. Great to serve with cheese, assorted cured meats, and soup. (pack of 10 cakes $4)
Cracked Pepper Oat Cakes- Made with oats, spelt flour, grass-fed pork lard, and a black pepper & szechuan pepper blend, these are a Scottish tradition with a little flair. Great to serve with cheese, assorted cured meats, and soup. (pack of 10 cakes $4)
