Happy Mango Melee everyone!
Despite the drought, we actually have a wide assortment of items, including some new ones coming to the market this week. We have a whole new stockpile of assorted types of honey from the VI Honeyman, brand new wines from Nicholas Hitesman, and we also have made the bamboo from R2R Farm available online in addition to the usual produce we have available (mixed greens, herbs, peppers, fruit, etc).
See you Wed!

Of all, but an evil portent, bringing heat
And fevers to suffering humanity.”

Farm to Table Recipes
A Tomato Sandwich Worthy of a Little Bacon
Ingredients
3 slices bacon, cooked crisp, crumbled and rendered fat reserved
1 room temperature egg
1 clove garlic
1 avocado
Juice of half a lemon
3/4 cup vegetable oil
The Bacon-Avocado Aioli
Toasted slices of a good rustic Italian bread
The best tomatoes you can find, sliced about 1/4 inch thick
Salt and pepper
Notes / Directions
1. Process the bacon, egg, garlic, lemon juice and avocado in the bowl of a mini food processor until smooth. Add the vegetable oil and the rendered bacon fat through the holes on the lid slowly while continuing to process until very smooth and thick. Refrigerate for about an hour to thicken a bit more.
2. Slather as much of the aioli as you like on a slice of the toast. Top with a few slices of tomato and sprinkle with salt and pepper. I like these open face but if you like, slather a second piece of bread with more of the aioli and place on top.
