Week of July 28, 2025 - Swarthmore Farmers Market Order Form
Hello everybody!!
Well, another fun week in Philly with a nice mix of pretty cool stuff! I know I can blah, blah, blah a wee bit but I won't this time. Let's roll right into it!!
First up is fresh, sushi grade yellowfin tuna from our friends up in Maine! Beautiful fish to carve up for poke bowls or crudos. Or try your hand at a nice tuna tartare with avocado to freshen things up on these hot summer days!
As I stated in the email earlier this week, no fresh Faroe Island salmon although we do have blast frozen for those who would die without it. In it's place, it's cousin from Norway, fresh, sushi grade Steelheed trout fillet!!! This has become quite a revelation for a lot of people. Fatty, mild and what a beautiful color! You prepare it exactly like you would for Faroe Island salmon. Good stuff...
We have more blast frozen halibut in the house! I don't know about you but this halibut has been absolutely amazing. So good...And in keeping with fun of whole fish use, we also have some beautiful halibut cheeks!! So great to pan sear with a little dredge or try using it in a fish soup or curry!!
We have more Boston mackerel fillet too! Such good stuff for those who like more flavor in a fish. And so easy to prepare. A quick pan sear skin side down for two minutes, flip and one more minute on the meat side, sprinkle with lemon juice and voila!!
We have more branzini butterlfied as well as a small shot of whole daurades scaled and guted from Greece!!
Alas, this will be the last week for fresh claw and knuckle meat for a little bit. Supply is dwindling right now and prices are shooting up.Hopefully, Maine has a strong harvest in August to pull us out of this..remember, the shelf life in your fridge is a week but it freezes really well!
Littleneck clams are the shellfish of the week. Best cheap meal ever! Summer Loves are the oysters this week from PEI, quite appropriately. Nice and plump.
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!
