Foothills Market:  A Golden Surprise!


Walking through the garden the other day, we discovered the rain helped the yellow Monte Gusto beans put on another crop. These beans are as long and nice as the ones we were getting from the plants earlier in the season.

We also have okra available, as well as a few “personal size” eggplants and some nice herbs that could be used fresh or dried for later.

There are also plenty of eggs, both duck eggs and chicken eggs. I believe we have five dozen of each in the farm refrigerator.

We probably won’t be at the farmers’ market this weekend, so if you want to place an order, we’ll contact you to make arrangements for delivery. Because we aren’t trying to meet the time frame of the downtown market, you can place your order on the website at any time this week.

Eat something fresh this week!

Sweet Zucchini Crumble

Silky smooth baked zucchini is the surprising filling in this sweet dessert. Like the best apple crumble, this dessert has a tender, lemony-sweet, spiced filling just waiting to be discovered beneath its irresistible, crunchy crust. Don’t count on having leftovers. From Farmer John’s Cookbook: The Real Dirt On Vegetables

Serves 6 to 8

4 1/2 cups flour

3 cups sugar, divided

1/2 teaspoon salt

11/2 cups shortening, softened, or butter, cold

6–8 cups thinly sliced zucchini (about 4 large zucchini)

2/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 3 lemons)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground or freshly grated nutmeg

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Stir the flour, 2 cups of the sugar, and salt in a large bowl until well combined. Add the shortening or butter and cut it into the flour with a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture looks like coarse oatmeal.
Pour half of the mixture into a 9×13-inch cake pan. Using your fingers or a rubber spatula, press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and set it aside.
Combine the zucchini and lemon juice in a large pot over high heat and cook until zucchini is tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Simmer for 1 minute more. Stir in 1/2 cup of the reserved flour mixture and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens. Remove the pot from the heat to cool for 10 minutes.
Pour the zucchini mixture over the baked crust and sprinkle with the remaining flour mixture. Return the pan to the oven and bake until it is lightly browned and bubbly, 40 to 45 minutes.
