Yesterday’s trip to the farmer’s market yielded a lot of photos and some amazing produce. I got these blackberries while there and I do believe they are the largest blackberries I have ever seen and they are so sweet. The one I am holding is not even the largest! They were a great healthy breakfast this morning.
I also got some beautiful tomatoes that I will be using for a caprese salad later today. For those that aren’t sure – a caprese salad consists of sliced tomatoes, sliced fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, and balsamic vinegar. All you do is take a slice of tomato, lay it on the plate, lay on a slice of mozzarella, add the fresh basil and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. So good.
I got some fresh corn, some beautiful green onions, and a few different types of squash. One type of squash was interesting to me – Mediterranean squash. It looks like a zucchini but is a much lighter green color. In looking for recipes on Google, it appears you use it like any other summer squash like zucchini or yellow squash.
What kind of things do you gravitate to at your farmers market?
Oh my goodness, that is a big black berry! You are right, Tere, if they are that big and juicy, forget the cobbler!
