Loads of Great Food at the Farmers Market
Besides Paul’s corn stand, I visited a lot of my favorite spots at the Dallas Farmers Market, including John Lucido’s stand. Every spring, I buy all of the starter plants for my herb garden from John and yesterday I stocked up on his homemade jalepeno-flavored linguine along with a couple jars of roasted garlic pasta sauce. I also picked up some fabulous onions from Lemley’s (below) across the street. Tonight I’m going to bake the onions and eat them alongside a plate of pasta and tomato sauce. And for dessert I’m going to open a jar of Lucido’s sweet Texas peaches and cover them with Blue Bell vanilla ice cream.
Think and Talk About Street Food Tomorrow
If you haven’t read D contributor Rawlins Gilliland’s sassy piece on street food in Dallas in this month’s print pub, do so here. Then tomorrow you can listen to Rawlins wax poetic on his adventures in outdoor dining with Kris Boyd on Think (90.1) from noon to 1:00pm. Inspired by editing Gilliland’s story, I hit the Dallas Farmers Market this weekend for a piece or two of corn slathered with mayonnaise and butter from Paul’s Sweet Roasted Corn stand. I found Paul standing outside of Shed One shouting, “Come on baby, and get your corn. D Magazine loves us.” Yes we do. Especially the condiment bar (below).
