Stir Fry, CSA Style
Thursday, September 20, 2007
I’ve been in a funk recently, and didn’t have much motivation to cook. As a result, I had lots of vegetables in the fridge, as the CSA shares keep coming in, funk or no. This evening, I decided to make a stir fry and use as many vegetables as I could. I don’t really have a recipe-- it’s mostly improvised.
This stir fry has the following local vegetables: green beans, pimiento peppers, bok choy, napa cabbage, turnips, and garlic. It also has red pepper flakes, soy sauce, and shirataki, which are noodles made from a type of yam called konnyaku.
Served over rice, this turned out to be a good dinner. Perhaps it’ll be the spark to get me cooking again.

heh. yarn noodles. 
I bought the shirataki from a Japanese grocery store in Narberth, called Maido. I’m sure you can get these in any Asian grocery, in the refrigerated section.
Are stir fries a CSA subscribers best friend, or what? Yours looks and sounds superb.

That looks yummy!
Weirdly, while reading your entry I thought it said “a type of yarn” not ‘yam’. Noodles made from yam sounds pretty awesome - where do you find them?
