25.01.2022 Nothing better than a Thursday night when your daughter cooks a delicious mushroom risotto for the family! So nice to have my feet up on the sofa during meal prep Enoki and button mushrooms - such a tasty combo.......thanks Box Divvy! Only missed the chives for the final touch... Definitely a keeper (recipe and daughter!) ... #mushroomrisotto #enokimushroom #communityboxsharing #boxdivvy #familymeals

25.01.2022 Eschalots - you may wonder what to use them for and why you would sometimes use them instead of brown onions? They are sweeter than brown onions and roast beautifully. Eschalots also appear in a lot of Ottolenghi’s recipes and Asian salads. I’ve made this baked rice recipe a lot and would LOVE to share it if you haven’t already discovered it. Brilliant side dish for fish/meat and so easy to prepare. ... I’m hoping eschalots will appear in our splits regularly over the summer , they’re so handy to have on hand (see recipe in earlier post for eg !) and the best thing is that they are at least half the price of eschalots in HF and local supermarkets. And.....they’re local - grown in Leppington! If stored in a cool dry place, they last for weeks and weeks so I’m never fussed about having them in my pantry as a staple. Thanks BD for the fresh ingredients (and the rice): Cherry or baby truss tomatoes Eschalots Coriander Garlic Thyme With the olive oil and the cinnamon sticks, that’s it!! #boxdivvychatswood #communityboxsharing #ottolenghisimple #ottolenghibakedrice

22.01.2022 Friday Fruit News: Australian Menindee grapes! Still a little pricey, around $12-$13 per kg, but give it a few weeks and they’ll be below $10. They look amazing though.... Earliqueen Plums! New season plums, aptly named Earliqueens. They’re early indeed - as a rule Box Divvy doesn’t touch plums until close to Christmas though exceptions are made from time to time and this Earliqueen is worth it. Peaches still suffering from Qld weather conditions () but lots of white and yellow nectarines, and apricots !! Mango prices are still forecast to drop further heading into December but haven’t they been tasting divine so far ? #summerfruit #communityboxsharing #boxdivvychatswood

22.01.2022 Update on the latest pickle/chutney/jam making sessions: this time it was Cucumber Pickles which we love and are also great to gift to family and friends at Christmas. Delicious with cheese, on ham and salad rolls, with fish - totally versatile. This week at Box Divvy continental cucumbers are only $1 each and Lebanese cucumbers are a low price of $2.29kg.... * recipe included from Cornerstone Cafe but there are lots of similar recipes available #xmasgiftideas #pickledveggies #cucumbers #boxdivvy #communityboxsharing

20.01.2022 Papaya and lime - a match made in heaven! Sprinkle some lime juice over sliced (room temperature) papaya - so good! #boxdivvychatswood #summerfruit #communityboxsharing

18.01.2022 Great idea, thanks Box Divvy Longueville-Kenneth!!

18.01.2022 Valencias get the thumbs up from me!!

17.01.2022 I agree! Their cucumbers are so fresh and tasty. They last for ages in the fridge

14.01.2022 Two types of mangoes for us to choose from: Kensington Pride and R2E2 I’m putting both in my basket this week. Looking forward to giving the R2E2 mango a go as it’s always been the underdog in our house. ... Word is that they are lovely and sweet, but it’s essential that they are absolutely ripe before eating. #boxdivvychatswood #cutyourfoodbillinhalf #communityboxsharing #mango

10.01.2022 Note: Important dates for our hub. I’m relieved we won’t need to fight the crowds doing our fresh fruit and veg shopping before Xmas. I know we can’t avoid the shops completely but any bit helps! At Chatswood Box Divvy, we have worked as a group since April to share boxes of produce with prices roughly 30% less than online supermarkets. Lots of fun and a great community feel. ...

08.01.2022 Shepherd’s mince pies !!!! Available for 3 weeks only

07.01.2022 We can’t get enough of our baby truss tomatoes so I’m not sure how are we going to cope with the baby roma truss tomatoes available this week! Even sweeter from what I’ve heard We have a bowl filled with them on our kitchen bench, so good to snack on. Thanks Box Divvy for the great choices! ... #boxdivvychatswood #communityboxsharing
