General tips

Buy Seasonal Food : Food in season is the best you can buy. Apples taste better when they haven't been flown half way around the world. And buying in season encourages local producers who, boosted by factors like the rise in farmers' markets, are building a more sustainable food industry.


Buy Local Food : Bringing more local produce into your kitchen may leave you wondering what to do with unusual things such as Jerusalem artichokes, kohlrabi or mizuna. “I get requests all the time from CSAs asking permission to put my recipes into their delivery boxes,” Madison says. “I always say yes.” Get a good produce-based cookbook and don’t be reluctant to ask for recipe ideas from growers.

Ingredients And Procedures
Ingredients
3teaspoonbutter 2 t flour
2teaspoonsalt
2teaspoonpepper
3cupmilk
6mdpotatoes, pared and thinly slicked
2teaspoononion, chopped

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. butter a 2 qt casserole. Make a basic white
sauce of butter, flour, salt, pepper & milk. Place half the potatoes in
casserole. Cover with half the onion and half the sauce. Repeat layers.
Cover and bake about an hour. (I like to cook it a bit longer, about 1 hour
and 15 minutes before uncovering it.) Test to make sure potatoes are
almost, but not quite, fork tender. Uncover and bake 30 minutes longer.

Left over cooked ham layered in the middle makes it almost a one dish meal,
and is a good addition...tho I usually serve this with ham to begin with.

Serves 6 but count on serving 4 with it!
