Pick of the Week: Bamboo Shoots

Tuesday shoppers, you are in for a treat this week. Check in with Joe and Jackie Dobie of Briarhill Farms for fresh bamboo shoots. If the only bamboo shoots you’ve experienced are those from the can, you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Tasting a bit like almonds, with the texture of artichoke hearts, fresh bamboo shoots are great in a stir-fry or simmered with shrimp in coconut milk. Trust us, it'll be hard to go back to the cans.

Tuesday’s Green Plate Special

What a delicious month April has been with Café Hope at Tuesday market! This week, they will delight us with Quiche Lorraine, vegetarian lasagna, a Farmers Market salad and strawberry basil muffins. Yum!

Recipe of the Week

Forgot the birthday and need an insta-cake? If it’s blueberry season, or if you smartly stashed berries in the freezer for the long months between blueberry harvests, the birthday party will go on with this Blueberry Butter Cream Torte! Savvy CCFM shoppers fill quart freezer bags with the luscious berries in the height of the season to be eaten like candy or made into impromptu desserts year-round.
