April 14, 2023 By marketeditor

Adapted from the recipe featured on Damndelicious.net

Yield: 4 servings 

Prep time: 20 min

Cook time: 30 min

Ingredients

*Ingredients currently available at the farmers’ market

  • ½ pound mushrooms* of your choice, sliced

  • 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2  1¼ -inch-thick New York strip steaks*

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.

  8. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Place the steaks in the middle of the skillet and cook until a dark crust has formed, about 4-6 minutes. Using tongs, flip, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until desired doneness. Let rest 5 minutes.
  9. Serve immediately with potatoes and mushrooms, garnished with rosemary, if desired.

Shepherd’s Pie

November 25, 2022 By marketeditor

“One of my favorite post-holiday meals is Sheperd’s pie. It’s still a comfort food and one that reminds me of being home for the holidays to this day. The recipe is simple, delicious, and helps use up some holiday leftovers”  – Ariel Garland

 

Recipe shared by Hebron Valley Veal

Serves 6-8

Prep & cook time: 40 mins

Ingredients

*Ingredients currently available at the farmers’ market

  • 2 pounds ground veal*
  • 1 large sweet onion*
  • 1/4 cup ketchup 
  • 3 cups frozen sweet corn
  • Leftover mashed potatoes 

Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Brown the ground veal with the diced onion. Once cooked through and the onions are translucent, add the ketchup. Put the mixture in the bottom of your desired baking dish. 

Top that with the frozen corn (you can add more or use less depending on your preference). Spread that out evenly over the meat. Next, layer the mashed potatoes over the corn at least an inch thick. Put a few dabs of butter over the top. Bake until warmed through, about 30 minutes.

Festive Foods and Flavors for St. Patrick’s Day

March 7, 2022 By marketeditor

By Julia Howard

  In the United States, Saint Patrick’s Day has ventured from authentic Irish traditions. However, Irish emigrants transformed the holiday into the celebration we know today; prominent displays of green, festive eating and drinking, and numerous parades. 

You can find the spirit of Saint Patrick’s Day at the Saratoga Farmers’ Market. With the approach of spring, there will be plenty of green there for you, too! This Saturday at the Wilton Mall, local producers have all the goods to help you prepare for your Irish-infused festivities.

If you’re preparing corned beef, your beef brisket should be bathing in spice-filled brine. But it’s not too late to pick up locally grown essentials like cabbage, carrots, and potatoes. You can find the products you need at Gomez Veggie Ville.

Something’s Brewing, photo by Toni Nastasi.

Something’s Brewing recommends Sumatra roasted beans to make the best Irish coffee. Pour one and a half ounces of Irish whiskey and one teaspoon maple syrup into a mug, and fill the rest of the way with freshly brewed coffee. Stir, taste, and adjust the sweetness. Then top with whipped cream.

Pork & Greens has nutritious microgreens for fresh and festive greens. Lovin’ Mama Farm has returned with microgreens and potted herbs. And J. Adkins has a variety of succulents and houseplants to add a touch of green to your living space. 

Suppose you’re looking for other flavors with a St. Patrick’s Day flair. In that case, Saratoga Chocolate Company’s Matcha Bar has the perfect balance of white chocolate and brilliant green Wakatake matcha (green tea powder with an earthy flavor). Junbucha will have green Japanese Matcha Kombucha, a tart yet sweet fermented beverage made with high-quality matcha, tea, and honey. Goat Scape cheese from R&G Cheesemakers offers savory goat cheese flecked with green garlic scapes.

Mean Max Brew Works has a diverse selection of handcrafted beers. And Kim Dolan Designed is hosting a drawing to win a lovely, handmade, green cloak.

For this week’s recipe, we share the main course that’s even more authentic to the Emerald Isle than corned beef and cabbage. Shepherd’s pie with lamb is a hearty dish with Irish roots. We enjoy Wolfgang Puck’s version that features many seasonal vegetables.
