4th week bursts with flavor
June 26, 2008
So you think you’ve had enough salad? Never fear – more vegetables are here!
Hard-climbing mountain man Dan Freeman, of Shooting Star Farm, is on hand with morels. If you miss your chance at buying some at Market, check out restaurants in Hailey and Ketchum who will serve his morels up as fresh as they come. (He and his band, Good Hard Rain, are also performing at Whiskey Jacques this Saturday, starting at 10 p.m. – check it out.)
We’re all still waiting anxiously for many things, but baby beets are around already. Roast them up with any one of the multiple herbs available at most of the produce stands. Have you tried garlic scapes or lambs quarters yet? Waterwheel Gardens put out some cherries and raspberries last week – expect much more during the first week of July (next week!).
Chelsea Hayes is coming to Ketchum on July 1 with specialty toffee in tow. As if you needed another dessert option to pull you to market . . . Counter it with Deby Asmussen’s homemade pasta. It cooks in just three minutes – a perfect airy summer meal when paired with some herbs, a light butter sauce, or even one of Deby’s partner’s homemade sauces.
Our eggs disappear quickly, but make sure to check out Idahosbounty.org – their supply stands up to demand a bit better. To learn more about this local food ordering network, visit www.idahosbounty.org.
Finally, music at the market is posted on the individual site pages here, and will also be announced at the end of our radio ads come each Tuesday and Thursday. Come grab a cool drink of Hibiscus tea or lemonade and relax to the tunes for a while. It’s a beautiful summer!
