Hello Market Shoppers!
We hope you will join us at our first market of 2013 this coming Saturday! It may be January, but the weather will feel more like April with a predicted high of 55 degrees. If your stocks of local food are running low, you are in luck! Most of our regular producers will be at the market this weekend!
We may not think of mushrooms as being seasonal, but they are! Mushrooms do not like the hot summer weather but thrive during the cooler months.
Oley Valley will bring LOTS of them this week. Angela and Joe took their mushrooms to the PA Farm show last week where they won FIRST prize for all of their entries! How lucky we are to have them come to Phoenixville! To celebrate and savor, we've put a few of our favorite mushroom recipes in this newsletter.
A sharp knife makes chopping vegetables and cutting meat and cheese a breeze. If yours are getting a little dull, bring them to the market on Saturday and have Neil sharpen them while you shop. What a good way to begin the year. If you haven't come to one of our Winter Markets, please visit us! We all set up in the upper portion under the bridge and make a cozy circle of incredibly delicious food. Chances are that you will have a chance to chat with a neighbor or old friend, and you might even make some new acquaintances!
The only downside to Saturday's market is that the Sunflower Truck Stop has a broken generator so they cannot drive down and cook delicious food for us to eat while we shop. They will miss the market so much that they plan to come down and see us anyway. They will be back in action for our market on January 26th and we will welcome them with open arms (and mouths!)
See you at the Market!!

Recipes
The shorter days and cool nights of early winter make cooking in a warm cozy kitchen a delight! Here are some links to a few of our winter mushroom favorites!
Mushroom Ragu with poached egg served over homemade coroutons You can find most of the ingredients for this tasty dish at the market! Mushrooms, eggs, & bread! We love this for weeknight dinners with a simple salad and a glass of local wine.
Mushroom Bourguinon Leave it to the Smitten Kitchen to come up with a luscious version of this classic beef centered dish. Serve it over some of Vera Pasta's pappardelle and try using some of Paradocx's barn red for the sauce.
Wild Mushroom and Blue Cheese Gallette Okay, the title of this recipe actually says "Stilton", but the recipe calls for Stilton or "any other good-quality blue cheese." What could be better than Sue Miller's Birchrun Hills Blue? And if you don't feel like making crust for a gallette? Buy a baguette from St. Peters, and spoon the mixture on top of slices.
