When we were thinking about what special seasonal veggies to build new fall celebration boxes around, one tuber spoke to the Clover Chefs above all others: Beauty, thy name is Sweet Potato.
We get our Sweet Potatoes from the best producer in the world—Ray Young at Next Barn Over Farm in Western Mass. Ray’s sandy soil is so perfect for growing sweet potatoes, they call it “sugar sand.” Next Barn’s sweet potatoes are complex, nutrient-packed, and beautiful.
And, like a fruit, sweet potatoes ripen. The best-tasting sweet potatoes are cured for several weeks in a warm, humid environment. This kicks the sugar production process into high gear to achieve their unique level of earthy sweetness. Ray and the team have it down to a science.
This new Box is our ode to Ray’s Sweet Potato.
In the box, you’ll get 4 servings of:
Our Japanese Sweet Potato Bowls, completely with nutty-chewy spelt and our irresistible shoyu mayo.
- Sweet Potato Latkes with local-Apple Compote and Sour Cream
- Clover’s signature African Peanut Soup (made with SPs), a favorite of our restaurant customers
- Plus a special housemade Sweet Potato Syrup, warmly spiced and ideal for autumnal sodas (we’ll include the seltzer in your box) or cocktails (these are up to you 😉 ).
We will be offering the Sweet Potato Box for delivery on Friday October 18 or Friday October 25. This box is likely to sell out, so book your box here soon.
If you want to keep the Sweet Potato Party rolling, alongside your box you can also get 8-lbs of Ray’s Best (abt 6-8 sweet potatoes) or a kit to make Clover’s fan-favorite Japanese Sweet Potato Sandwich at home.
