Farmers' Market Haul - 1/7/07
This was a typical mid-winter farmers' market in many respects. You can find anything you could want, as long as all you want is citrus, beets, or winter greens.
But I did score that item that I've been eagerly anticipating since winter began: Meyer Lemons!
I still don't think I've figured out how to use Meyer lemons to fully bring out their distinctiveness, but I love them anyway. They're lovely to look at, and they smell great.
Anyway, the total haul was:
- 6 Meyer lemons
- 1 bunch red chard
- 1 bunch lemongrass
- 1 bunch cilantro
Total expenditure: $4. (I'm already thinking, "Man, I should have bought more lemons!" Maybe there will be more next week.)
I've been disappointed in the lemongrass I've gotten at supermarkets recently, so we'll see if the stuff from the farmers' market does better.
