Made From the Market

Welcome to "Made From the Market" featuring recipes, photos, tips and techniques from customers, vendors, staff and volunteers highlighting the use of seasonal market products and the producers who grow and make them.

This week's submission comes from our very own Market Manager, Christine Hawks.

Sauteed Mushrooms with Linguine in Brown Butter Garlic Wine Sauce

Taking inspiration from this recipe on the North Spore blog and using mixed mushrooms from the newest producer to join our market -- Marion Mushrooms -- Christine added a few touches of her own . . .

"I browned the butter before adding the mushrooms and thyme. Season to taste and brown the mushrooms. Add chopped garlic. Then I added chopped fresh asparagus, lemon zest, a splash of dry white wine, and let that cook off. Add in the cooked pasta along with enough of the salted pasta water to make a sauce. I finished with the juice of half a lemon, a tablespoon of butter and a sprinkle of chopped parsley. Served with homemade smoked cheddar and garlic biscuits (my version of cheddar bay biscuits)."

And now we want the biscuit recipe, too, Christine!

BYOB -- Bring Your Own (Water) Bottle

While visiting the market this Saturday, The Worthington Partnership and The Worthington Partnership Green Team invite you to use the new public water fountain and bottle filling station installed on the Southwest Village Green. It even has a designated fountain/bowl for dogs!

Our team is excited to offer this sustainable resource to help reduce the number of plastic water bottles used in Worthington that add to the landfill.

Thank you to the City of Worthington Government for supporting us on this sustainability project and thank you to The Worthington Partnership Green Team for working so hard to raise the funds to make it happen!

Don't forget to "BYOB" on Saturday. Bottled water will no longer be sold at the market information booth.
