April Farmers Market

April Market bring…swirling snow

I am impatient; I want the spring greens, the apple blossoms and all that goes with them. Now. Any rational person will tell you, nature rules; it will arrive when it’s time. So enjoy. Now.
I like to taste the Saturday market, simply without a lot of fuss, a market munch, so to speak.

Fig and Anise Bruschetta with goat cheese and honey

Slice a Breadfarm Fig and Anise roll in half, lightly toast under a broiler and slather with Gothberg Farm goat cheese and drizzle with raspberry honey.

Perfect!

Home Again

Made it home in time for the seasonal opening of the market, come rain or shine, the Farmers market always reassures me that Spring is on the way.
Nettles were available from some farmers. Listed as a power food, stinging nettles are high on the list as a Spring tonic.
If you have ever touched a nettle you know how badly they hurt, so how did people get to the point of eating them. How did they discover dipping them in boiling water took the sting out?
Wear gloves and eat on!
