laniloa Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Had the pleasure of strolling around the Union Square Greenmarket in NYC yesterday. A friend and I made a little picnic out of super sweet first of the season strawberries, fresh sourdough bread with a killer thick crispy crust and some chicken salad (OK- that came from the Whole Foods across the street). Took some Jonagold and Honeycrisp apples home to mom and felt more then a little sad that I don't get to go to markets more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrelayneNYC Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 it's interesting to find a thread dedicated to USGM on what is predominantly a DelMarVa-focused board.anyway... a few pix from yesterday; the rest are on my blog linked to in my signature.radishes; at left are Japanese turnips.green and purple kohlrabi.very unusual to see parsnips so early in November. i should have bought a few, given that one of my favorite ways to serve them is for breakfast, fried in butter with toasted hazelnuts or pistachios and lightly drizzled with honey or maple syrup.Seckel pears.apples and cranberries.German butterball potatoes. think of Yukon Golds, except these are denser and buttery in flavor; they're excellent roasted, fried or turned into olive oil mashed potatoes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laniloa Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Great pictures of the market, Trelayne! I grew up in NY and watched the USGM transform that neighborhood.When I made that first post, I was living in Tallahassee, FL - a good produce desert. Wandering through the market, even so early in the season, was uplifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
