An Excellent Resource For Adventurous Eaters

A few days ago a farmer I know shared a site that I think is pretty cool: the irreverently named WTF is this vegetable. On it are pictures of vegetables you may have seen in the produce aisle (or in your CSA box) but aren't really sure how to use, as well as several recipes for each vegetable. Some of the vegetables include kohlrabi, celeriac, rutabaga, nettles, and parsnips. There is even a place where you can suggest vegetables for her to include!
It's funny how one person's staple vegetable is another person's "WTF" vegetable. I am totally comfortable cooking with kale (and most other greens), but have always felt a little sheepish about my lack of experience with bok choi. This year I planted some in an effort to get myself to try cooking with it more often. Luckily for me, bok choi is on the site, so I have lots of new recipes to try out. If you've found yourself curious about cooking with vegetables you haven't used much (or at all), check this site out, it a terrific resource.
