NAPA FARMERS MARKET: THE ART OF PRESERVING FLAVORS OF SUMMER

Canning tomatoesWe may not be able to grow juicy vine-ripe tomatoes during the cold months but who's to say that we can't enjoy a delicious meal prepared with tomatoes from our local Farmers Market or even our own backyard. The secret is the art of canning our own food.

In modern day, it is rare to see someone who doesn't own a food business buying three cases of tomatoes or peaches at the Farmers Market. The truth is that it can be incredibly rewarding to bring home a big box of your favorite flavors, which you will miss the most during the winter, and dedicate a quiet Sunday afternoon to the art of canning or preserving. Now is the time to start your canning projects as fruits and vegetables are at their ultimate peak! Click here for directions on canning your own tomatoes. And see you at the Farmers Market -- Tuesdays and Saturdays from 7:30 am to noon.

OXBOW PRODUCE & GROCERY: MORTAR AND PESTLE PART II

mortar and pestleFor some reason this method
really does make for the best vinaigrette. Take a peeled clove of garlic and a pinch of kosher salt; place in mortar and grind until a paste. Take half the amount out and put aside. Directly into the mortar add good quality vinegar (white or red), extra virgin olive oil and a generous twist of black pepper; whisk until emulsified. Oxbow Produce recommends one part vinegar to three parts olive oil. Then taste and add more garlic paste as needed. People will be convinced you're a genius because your vinaigrette is so good, and you don't have to tell them about your secret tool--the mortar and pestle.
OXBOW CHEESE MERCHANT: GENUINE FULVI ON SPECIAL

Fulvi CheeseEvery week, Oxbow Cheese Merchant features a "Friends of Oxbow" cheese at 20% off. This week the "Friends" cheese is Genuine FulviŽ Pecorino Romano DOP, a 100% sheep milk cheese from the countryside near Rome. That is not, however, why it is called "Romano." The name comes from the fact that the Romans were making this cheese as long as 2,000 years ago, and the style actually originated in Sardegna. Genuine Fulvi's Pecorino Romano is aged from 10 months to a year. It is deliciously intense and salty, but not as dry as Pecorino from Sardegna. It is a superb grating cheese, and we also love it with a slice of apple or pear after a meal or as an afternoon snack. Ask the Oxbow Wine Merchants to recommend a wine with Genuine Fulvi, as there are lots of good options.
