Mid-August Farmers Market Bounty

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

Here is a photo of some of the food I got at the Catonsville Farmers Market on a Wednesday in mid-August. The dark purple pods are okra. You can also see yellow and red peppers, corn on the cob, onions, peaches, beans, garlic and maybe some other kinds of produce.
The other photo is some of the August vine-ripened tomato harvest from our garden. So fresh and so good!

Click below for an awesome chocolate cookie recipe. I searched and couldn’t find a recipe for really rich and decedent chocolate cookies, so I developed this one. The texture has the best of both worlds – cookies and brownies. Enjoy!

The second page includes a chart of scoop/disher sizes. Ice cream scoops come in many sizes for a variety of applications. Who knew? Alton Brown recommends using a #20 disher to scoop his cookie dough onto the cookie sheets. I researched what that meant and gathered the info to share with you all.
