Farmers’-Market Saturday
Sunday, May 11, 2008
When I got home from yesterday’s farmers’ market with a bunch of asparagus, I decided to try a version of the asparagus quiche that I’ve been seeing around the internet. Mine contains spring onions and spring garlic as well as asparagus, and local yogurt instead of milk and cheese.
Other foods (aside from the asparagus and spring garlic) available at the Clark Park market included rhubarb, kale, chard, dandelion greens, spinach, various lettuces and other salad greens, storage crops such as onions, potatoes, carrots, and cabbage, some jerusalem artichokes, mushrooms...and the usual assortment of meats, dairy products, baked goods, and chocolate. The fresh flower stand is back, too, as is the booth of flowers and herbs to plant. It’s really feeling like spring!
