Yesterday, I braved the snow drifts left by the storm and volunteered at the New Amsterdam Market. It's an amazing food market that's packed with small-scale food producers, and I love getting to taste new things and talk to other folks who are passionate about food. Even better, the Market takes place on the site of the old Fulton Fish Market, one of the oldest neighborhoods in New York.
A few highlights from this edition of the market:
-Gingerbread Stout Caramels from Liddabit Sweets
-Pate de campagne from Art + Agriculture
-Duck confit "Hot Pockets" from Quality Meats
-Dark, sticky gingerbread from Saltie
Here are some photos from the market!

I love winter farm markets. There's one in my hometown in Upstate New York. I love to try the duck confit hot pockets!
