SimplicityInstitute.org — Stonesoup — 5 ingredient recipes. On the weekend, Fergal and I had a lovely Saturday morning outing to our local farmers market. It’s been ages since I had the luxury of doing our weekly shop at a real farmers market and I’d forgotten how much fun it is. I love strolling through the stalls, choosing from beautiful displays of produce. For me the joy of shopping at the farmers market isn’t just about bringing home the freshest, best tasting produce. For me, a huge part of the fun is allowing what looks best to dictate what I buy and ultimately what I decide to cook. It’s really the easiest way to keep your cooking seasonal. The thing I was reminded of was how market shopping is a bit of a skill.
If you’re used to planning your meals, writing a list and buying what’s on the list, I can imagine that shopping at the farmers market would be frustrating. Traipsing from stall to stall trying to find what you need isn’t much fun. I know because that’s how I used to shop. Sometimes I’d consult my cookbooks for ideas. 1. 2. 3. Ps. Happy Planet Index.
