Matt heroically went to the Farmer's Market while I went to work. This is his haul :)
Shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, purple sprouting, leeks, shallots, tomatoes (that actually taste!!!), figs (from shop. not market).
I go on about it all the time - but - the market is fantastic:
1) you can buy in quantities that you need - not prepacked amounts - so there is much less waste.
2) You don't need so much packaging, full stop.
3) The produce is interesting, varied and tastes great.
4) And most of all - it allows for spontaneity, the most magic of feelings that means you can decide what you want to cook from what's there and what's good.
Its inspiring. You don't get that from Sainsburys.
