From Market to Market


Long Water Farm is excited to announce our first market debut on June 20th at the Niantic Farmer's Market!

After a few months of tilling, fertilizing, seeding, planting, weeding, and a little sunshine, we have produce ready to hit the stands.

This week we are thinking GREEN with lots of kale, herbs and lettuces.

What to do with lots of salanova lettuce, red russian kale, cilantro, oregano,  and parsley?
Well, there are millions of options, but one real winner is a favorite home-made salad dressing that is a staple for our family.  It is fantastic over a bed of fresh lettuce, or even as a marinade!  This recipe has been in high demand from friends, so we may as well share it here!

Hutchins go-to Salad Dressing

1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
handful of fresh herbs (We have been LOVING Oregano and Chive)
2 cloves garlic (more or less depending on your love or loathing)
1/4 cup red wine or apple cider vinegar (or a mix of the two!)
pinch of salt
several grinds of freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup (maybe a little more) extra virgin olive oil

Place all ingredients except for olive oil into food processor, let them be processed into a paste type medium.  As your food processor runs, slowly drizzle in the olive oil, letting the dressing in the processor thicken.  Et Voila! You will have a divine vinaigrette that can be a welcome addition to any salad!

Hope to see you Thursday, we will have plenty recipe cards to help inspire some great green cooking!
