Food market prices


188 nis : 16:00

Had to wait abit but worth it, but worth it. First pickings of the biggest, sweet box of grapes. 
4 x boxes of baby cukes 20 nis
Celery, spinach, lettuces - any 2 items - 10 nis
Fruit boxes 3 for 20 nis / 2 for 15 nis

Update:
So many fruits - Have made 3 Tarte Tatins so far and 10 jars of Summer fruit jam. Still more to make!
Kiwis were very juicy and sweet. Pomegranates shrivelled but wonderfully red and sweet!


 



Jamming it is then!


Pomegranites, I've discovered to my confusion, the drier and shrivelled they seem the ruby redder and sweeter they are!.  Go figure. It seem my head cant get around this and every year I forget this phenomena.




Two stacks on my bike!! Not the usual one. How did I manage to get home with dropping? Very carefully and SLOWLY.





Woohoo feeding the masses!
This Summer all the kids are back to roost.  Love it, because, I know this is a tiny window. The time will be short and it will be over forever. Enjoy it while you can!

Shana Tova All ❤️

Food market - prices

120 nis - 16:00

Shuk Open Market - prices - September

3 boxes 20 nis (incl. corn) (or 2 boxes/15 20 nis)

Fridge items 2 for 10 nis:

4 x cucumbers -  2 for 10 nis
2 x Lettuces  - 2 for 10 nis
Celery + radishes both for 10 nis  (2 items = 10 nis)

Total 120 nis




  • Cucumbers baby will go straight for pickling
  • Cherry Tomatoes either for a tomato salad or in the oven-dried tomatoes to be used as flavourful a topping.
  • Peaches, nectarines are at their peak. To be used for seasonal Tarte tatins or fruit cobblers. Any leftovers can be utilized for Summer fruits. NOTHING is wasted.





Is this possible? Here's the proof in the above photo! (Had to revisit my photos - love this logging)

I bought  4 packs of cucumbers, pickled five jars on Saturday. (One jar is okras)
It's Thursday today. We are mid-way through the last jar!

Granted one went as a gift to a friend's birthday.
Tip: Always count that at least one jar will be given away. I never know who will turn up in my kitchen next. But they always do! Don't misunderstand me. I LOVE it. I am a compulsive sharer :)
Open house.
Good food
Good company
Good conversation
