A field in Gettysburg
Yesterday morning, I got up a little late. I considered not going to the farmer’s market since I still had some vegetables left over from the previous weekend. But as I thought about it, I realized I could not go a week without quark, the creamy fresh cheese made from cultured buttermilk. And so, I made the journey to the farmer’s market after all. I ended up getting some sheep milk cheese, heavy cream, and berries in addition to the quark, so it was productive. I’m preparing a post on quark. It is something you can make at home, if you are so inclined. In the meantime, here are a few links that I found interesting: some local farms I love, a coconut milk cooking contest, misconclusions drawn from studies, nutrient deficiencies, supplies for preserving food, and why local food is awesome. See below for all the links.
