On Wednesday, our head of food Chris was in The Boston Globe! Check out Kara Baskin’s interview with Chris as part of her Getting Salty column, where she interviews people making waves in the food scene. I heard tell of Chris before I met him. My first manager, Leah, said with reverence, “One day, you will meet CHRIS!” this shadowy culinary persona who would help us out on the truck on Fridays. Finally I met him, and he was a calm Midwesterner with a knack for…

Ever since joining Clover, I think a lot about chickpeas. A. LOT. I think about the nutty-buttery flavor they have raw, the deep savory edge they get when cooked, their creamy richness when blended up in our housemade hummus. I think about their protein punch (one cup = 14.5 grams of the good stuff, 20% of your recommended daily amount), their high fiber, iron, and Vitamin B count. I think about how pretty they are, with that distinctive curved ridge and little pointed peak that tells you this ain’t any old bean: THIS IS CHICKPEA.

If you’ve been by the restaurants lately you may have noticed these big flats of heirloom tomatoes on the counter. We decided to bring back an old favorite: the Heirloom Tomato! It’s super simple, designed to celebrate Kitchen Garden heirloom tomatoes in all their glory. This time we added Pesto to the mix: mayo, pesto, sharp cheddar, a thick slice of heirloom dusted with salt and pepper, all folded into our house-made pita. The Heirloom is going away tomorrow (Weds 9.3) to make way for a brand new…

Fresh tomatoes, baked tomatoes, tomato jam, tomato butter, tomato soup. What is your favorite way to eat tomatoes? We’ve been doing these produce boxes, focusing on a single fruit or veg, but with tons of different recipes you can make at home. First up was the Blueberry Box. Now that tomatoes are coming in from Kitchen Garden Farm, we’re bringing back a meal box dedicated to local summer tomatoes.

August 15th is Julia Child’s Birthday, and the Clover kitchen crew decided there was no more fitting way to honor our former neighbor than with a French-inflected meal box packed with Julia-inspired fare.. Our neighbor? Yes! Julia lived in Cambridge about one mile down the road from CloverHUB and shot her famous TV shows right from the kitchen of her house—but don’t try to pop in now: her kitchen was disassembled piece by piece and shipped off to the Smithsonian. Inside the Julia Child’s Birthday Box you’ll get…

Did you know blueberries originated in this region of the world? They’re in season right now, which means it’s time for blueberry lemonade at the restaurants, and the Blueberry Meal Box delivered to your kitchen! A meal box for 4, with sweet and savory dishes. Last year, it was one of our most popular meal boxes, and this year we made a few changes to make it even more filling…

We’ve been fielding so many sweet emails and DMs asking if the Zucchini is back. And finally we can say it is! This sandwich is one of my favorites we do all year. There’s a thick slice of glazed tofu from Heiwa in Maine. Basil mayo. Fresh raw zucchini (from Kitchen Garden Farm and Red Fire Farm) that we cut into half-moons. Snappingly fresh corn. And shiso, which is a Japanese herb that tastes like a cross between mint and basil with slight licorice-y notes. It’s sweet/salty/fresh and (I think) super addictive.

I’m particularly affected by the heat – ask anyone who knows me. As a Texan, I do not understand when people “don’t use their AC.” So I tend to cook less during the summer, which is sad, because I love summer produce. So a few months ago, I started asking the kitchen team if we could invent a No Cook Meal Box. Chris worked his magic and…

It’s finally back! The Nashville Hot Mushroom comes around once a year. It’s our homage to the hot chicken at Prince’s in Nashville. Our version gives you a little relief from the spice with a cooling corn mayo made from freeze-dried corn (customers have requested to buy vats of this stuff), fresh lettuce, and dill pickle coins. Then come the mushrooms. We get Blue Oysters from Rhode Island. We batter and fry them in Plimoth cornmeal…

Ever wanted to make your own ramen, but were short on time? Our Late Spring Box is back and it features a ramen-esque kit that comes with slow-cooked ramen broth, hand-pulled buckwheat noodles from Kim’C Market, jammy eggs and lots of toppings.

Last year, a particularly creative Clover employee named Sasha had an idea. What if we turn our Impossible kofta into a burger and crisp it up? Our Middle Eastern kofta had never graced a sandwich (it was a side for our bowls and a catering menu item.) Sometimes the best ideas are right around us! Jasper shepherded “The Smasher” from secret employee dream to reality and now…

Clover dedicates a portion of our restaurants to CSA (farm box) pickups from 4 local farms. CSA stands for community-supported agriculture, and it’s the best economic model to support small farmers and get the most delicious produce all summer and fall. Here’s how it works. You pay up front during the spring (aka now), and in exchange for your initial investment, you get a box of produce weekly during the summer. Each farm drops off…

May the 4th is Star Wars Day. Whatever your Star Wars is—new episodes of “Andor,” hate-watching Jar Jar in the prequels, or reveling in the Luke-Leia-Han classics—you’re going to need a full day of intergalactic treats fit for bingeing. Enter, our May the Fourth Box. Every year we tweak this box a bit. This year features the return of a much-loved classic: our Bantha Meat Gyros! (For the Bantha unacquainted, click here.) Also in this year’s box:
