Farmers’ Market find AND a San Diego food blog.
To Market, To Market with San Diego Foodstuff: Breakfast Surprise at Hillcrest Farmers Market.
Ben, Sami and I biked to the Hillcrest Farmers’ Market on Mothers’ Day (probably the first time we’ve been to the farmers’ market in at least a year.) (Also, Sami didn’t bike. She sat on her seat in the front of my bike.)
We had a great time looking for the few things we needed – got some spring onions and shallots which more than satisfied my onion needs, and we brought home a bunch of ruby-red and perfectly sweet cherries. We also trolled the prepared-foods section in search of a great breakfast, and while there were many options the choices wound up being easy.
Sami and I shared a roasted corn and poblano pepper tamale, which if I recall was the last thing I ever ate at a farmers’ market, how’s that for creature of habit?
Ben got the aforementioned coconut pancakes. We tried them and were hooked. They have a custardy, eggy texture and pure coconut flavor – like a coconut breakfast flan. The post I linked to includes a sample recipe, which I may try one day, but I can’t do these little wonders justice with words. Go try them!
