Farmer’s Market Bounty: July 13, 2008
2008 July 15
Favas in July?! Thanks to Tutti Frutti Farms and some hungry ladybugs we snagged some very late season favas at this week’s Hollywood Farmer’s Market. We also picked up some beautiful heirloom and garden variety tomatoes, leeks, avocados, arugula, mexican squash, lemon verbena, basil, thyme, italian parsley, shitakes, plums, peaches, white nectarines, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, tangerines, rhubarb, red onion, creamy Soledad Goat Cheese, and some fresh Ono from the Fish Truck.
I’d love to hear your suggestions about what to make this week. Please send your ideas.
The “Farmer’s Market Bounty” series is a weekly, typological photo essay of my Market shopping, which charts the possibilities of seasonal eating.
This is not revolutionary, but I’m going to suggest a salad with fruit, greens, finely chopped red onions and goat cheese.
I love to bring fruit into the main course.
Thanks Christy! I followed your advice and named a salad after you. See: http://lastomach.wordpress.com/2008/07/16/the-iceberg-that-sank-salad-until/
wow! must be quite a market!
Yes Colleen, the Market is amazing. If you’re ever in LA head to Hollywood Blvd and Ivar on Sundays. It’s our favorite spot in lala land.
What an absolutely delicious looking spread of food!
