Blueberry Sour Cream Swirl

Blueberry Sour Cream Swirl

Ice cream: a pinnacle of childhood summer. The June solstice is right around the corner, and we at Farro simply cannot wait. We’re lucky to live right by a blueberry patch. Farmer Ken gave us the first pick of the season. One might initially wrinkle their nose at the idea of sour cream in their ice cream, but this recipe makes a strong case. The slight tang of sour cream balances the light sweetness of ripe blueberries for a more refreshing experience. Plus, its rich and smooth consistency also increases the final product’s melting point, which means your ice cream will last longer under the hot sun.

Asian Pear and Apple Pie

Asian Pear and Apple Pie

Autumn is the season for pie. Our CSA had a surplus of Asian pears, which are not commonly used for baked goods, due to their crispy texture and high water content. But we at Farro like to take the road less traveled. Asian pears are sweet and refreshing. What better way to compliment them than with the earthy undertones of Jonagold apples and the almost minty taste of bay leaf infused butter? For the crust, you can use a combination of regular and amaranth flour, the latter of which is rich in protein and adds a malty, nutty flavor to the overall mixture.

Blackberry Peach Cobbler

Sometimes masterpieces are created by accident, and by that, we mean just looking in our fridge for ingredients that are days away from spoiling. Perhaps the idiom we’re looking for is: necessity is the mother of creation. We had blackberries and peaches that absolutely had to be eaten. There were too many to consume in one sitting, so we decided to bake them. Cobblers are what we like to call “lazy pies.” No bottom crust is required, just an easy biscuit batter to top off the fruit mixture. Cobblers are obviously a little more messy when it comes to presentation, but sometimes you just have to revel in imperfection. Serve with a dollop of whipped or ice cream for a richer experience.

Sticky Apple Date Cake

Sticky Apple Date Cake

With this cake, we guarantee your first date won’t be your last. All puns aside, though, anyone who has a bite will ask for seconds, thirds, and even fourths. A generous helping of fresh ginger is what gives this recipe its unique, light, and tingly heat. When it comes to baking with fresh dates, you have to boil them, since the skin can be hard and crunchy. Make sure you taste one before you cook them all, though, because unripe dates are sour and chalky. Optimal color for a ripe date is amber, but yellow ones can still be used. The intense sweetness of ripe dates is offset with tangy apples like Pink Lady or Braeburn. Add an easy caramel sauce on top and you have a dessert that’s sure to stick with you.
