Cherry Tomato and Goat Cheese Galette

8/13/2024

The cherry tomatoes coming from DC Farm for Vets have been at the top of my shopping list for weeks now, and I have normally been consuming them as part of a salad or on top of some tacos or nachos. This week, however, I let my container start to go too far. How could I best use the remainder before they were unusable without invoking the ghost of the viral feta pasta?

I saw the key to the puzzle in my cheese drawer– garlic and herb goat cheese. Thus, this savory galette was born. I will say that it does not refrigerate well, so if you make it yourself, it may be best shared with a crowd. The ingredients are simple, and I find them in my fridge often enough that I may wind up making this next time I have company.

Full recipe below the break!

Walking Onion Fritters

Walking Onions from Adam’s Heirlooms were one of the first ingredients that I have never seen prior at any other farmers’ market stand since I started visiting other markets in Illinois over ten years ago. These onions self propagate in the field after the seeds at the top of the plant become too heavy and the stalk falls over. I find the taste to be similar to that of a shallot the closer you get to the root end, but like all bulb onion varieties, it has greens to be used in a variety of ways.

These fritters utilize the hard stalk of the walking onion through to the sturdier greens to add crunch to the soft interior. For the size of the provided recipe, only one walking onion came down to a ¼ cup of sliced onion. Depending on the size you get at the market, you may need more or you may need less. Adam’s were massive this year!

This recipe also utilizes one of my favorite varieties of cheese from Kickaas Cheese, another regional Farmers’ Market vendor. Their chipotle cheddar is one of my favorites that I always try to keep in my refrigerator this time of year, but feel free to try other types of cheese in its place. The texture of the batter stops bleed from a grated cheddar.

Sour Cream & Chive Blossom Flatbread

6/5/2024

One of my favorite cooking projects is a quick grilled flatbread– fresh bread without having to heat up the oven. This is especially great during the summer, and I’ve recently began mixing in herbs and other ingredients into the dough I typically use for this. To get the most out of my farmers’ market finds, I mixed in the chopped stems of the chive blossoms I got from Full Circle Community Farm in order to create these sour cream and chive blossom flatbreads. While this recipe is created to use up my chive blossoms, multiple herbs can be swapped in. Try your favorites once you’re comfortable!

Fellow Northeast Wisconsin types can further localize the recipe by buying Westby Sour Cream at many of our local grocery stores.
