Gold Medal Bruschetta

July 31, 2012 By marketeditor

The Saratoga Farmers’ Market is piling up with succulent vine-ripened tomatoes. Combine them with other produce from the market including onion, garlic and basil for this gold medal bruschetta.

This recipe comes from Sandra Foster, the owner of the Village Pizzeria & Ristorante in East Galway.  Sandra is known as a restaurateur who uses fresh local produce whenever possible, so it’s worth the trip out to the Village Pizzeria on Route 29 to try her bruschetta, if you’re not going to make your own.

 

Gold Medal Bruschetta

1 baguette

6 large vine-ripened tomatoes*

1 large sweet onion*

1 tablespoon sea salt

6 cloves garlic*

1 cup chopped fresh basil*

½ cup extra virgin olive oil

Balsamic vinegar glaze to drizzle

 

Slice baguette into 2 inch thick pieces, brush with olive oil and bake 4 minutes in a 375 degree oven. Set aside. Chop tomatoes and onion, place in a bowl and sprinkle with salt. Let this set while chopping garlic to release the juices from the tomatoes. Chop garlic, add to tomato mixture along with basil and olive oil, gently mix together. Let sit for at least 30 minutes to bring out the flavors. Spoon onto toasted baguette slices, drizzle with balsamic vinegar glaze. Makes 12 servings.

Starting off the week with another MCM (Market Cru Starting off the week with another MCM (Market Crush Monday!) This week we talked to Kim from Mugzy’s Barkery who brings healthy, locally made dog treats to the market. 
 
1. How did Mugzy’s Barkery get started? 
My sister Jaime started the business just over 5 years ago to have a healthier treat option to give her beloved Olde English Bulldog, Mugzy. Our treats are all natural and organic, providing a healthy alternative to mass-produced treats for caring dog parents. 
 
 2. What’s your favorite part about vending at the market?
Definitely getting to see all the dogs! The funny thing is I know all our regular customer’s dogs by name, not the owners. 
 
3. What are your most popular treat flavors?
Pumpkin paws (grain-free biscuits) and the pupcakes (a bite-sized treat) are really popular with the dogs but we also have flavors like PB cookie cups, apple cheddar training treats, banana buddies and more, so something to fit any pup’s tastes!
 
The PB cookie cups have been tried and approved by our market assistant’s dog, Lacey!
