Week of May 19, 2025 - Swarthmore Farmers Market Order Form

Hello everybody!!

Holiday weekend!! Time to crank up the songs of summer! Whichever they are for you. I've got a few playlists that go waaaayy back...Love it...And our first ever attendance at the Swarthmore Farmers Market!! Super excited about that too!

One quick note. You should get a prompt when you click on the order link to select a location. Either Bryn Mawr market or Swarthmore market. Make sure you select the Swarthmore market before you get started ordering. We will be at both markets this Saturday morning. Thanks.

Okay, let's roll into it since we have so many good things. Let's talk lobster meat. We have fresh claw and knuckle meat from Nova Scotia. The best meat for lobster rolls. Sweetest part of the lobster. For those of you new to lobster meat, it can seem pricey. But look at it two ways. First, with a yield of meat of only 20% from the whole state, one pound of lobster meat is what you would yield from five pounds meat. Lots of work and more expensive. Also, with a pound of lobster meat, you can make 4 or 5 lobster rolls. I typically make 5. With butter and all, it is pretty rich. At $48 per pound, you are making a lobster roll for under ten bucks any way you portion it..That's a good deal, people...

Next up is a special item that needs special care. Super frozen Otoro! Bluefin belly. The most prized part of any tuna and the most expensive. We have them frozen at -60F which preserves the freshness. Those of you who have tried it have absolutely raved. Yeah. The quality is superb. And for the price compared to a resto, not even close. Just remember that you need to keep it in your freezer til you are ready. You have a week to use it. Then you need to thaw in a very specific way in an ice bath. We have a video on our site for that. Please look at it. Super important.

More sushi stuff in frozen hamachi loin! The perfect party tray for a nice crudo. Sliced thin, ponzu sauce, sliced jalapenos...rock star!!! For another part of the same fish that need to be roasted or grilled, we have hamachi kama (the collar). Super good stuff.

For a lot of people who grew up around here, summer is associated with bluefish. We got some. Filleted, blast frozen and vac packed. Have at it!

We have Black cod fillets, branzini butterflied, lobster tails, whole yellowtail snappers, wild Argentine Red head on shrimp (the big ones), wild rock shrimp. Plenty of gorgeous Faroe Island salmon and Hokkaido scallops. Both sushi grade..

Littleneck clams are the shellfish of the week. And with organic fresh spinach linguini from Settantatre Pasta Co? Best cheap meal ever! Mere Points from Maine are the oysters this week. Nice and plump. 

And Puff pastry dough from Oui Pastries is back!

See what I mean?? All this good to stuff to choose from.... Life is good...

And don't forget your frozen shrimp and condiments and sauces...And dog treats for doggies...

I know, I know. Lots of words but, hey, consider the alternative...

Here is the order form. Bring a bag! Bring a bag! Bring a bag!
