oh hey...just wanted to share what I did at the farmers market today. So, ive been doing market food demos..basically making different salads with different vendors ingredients that they give me. Today was a massaged kale salad with a blackberry jalapeño vinaigrette. It was delicious. I used a vendors Blackberry jalapeño jam (6 chix). I squeezed 1/2 lemon into a bowl, added about a TB of the jam, whisked it together, then added about 3 blackberries, some cut up RIPE pear, shallots, garlic, got that all mashed in, then drizzled and whisked in olive oil to the right consistency (its a general rule of thumb, 1 part acid to 2 parts oil for dressing). The salad of kale had herbed goat cheese, slices of pear, thinly sliced rainbow carrots, red onion, candied nuts and sweet red pepper. It was good! People really loved it and were happy to see another use of kale that wasnt cooked. I really dig doing this gig...its volunteer but im getting to know all the farmers, meeting some really wonderful people and truly enjoying this experience.
