Fresh Cheese Curds and Spring Garlic
When we moved to Madison we were informed that the Dane County Farmers Market (held each Saturday on the Capitol Square) was something we couldn’t miss. This year we were able to attend the market on the opening day. (During the winter and other colder months, the market still occurs but meets indoors). After meeting up with some fellow Madison Tweeters (@TonyWalla & his lovely wife @macwidow) for coffee and pastries at L’Etoile’s Cafe Soleil (yum!) we walked around the market in search of ramps (baby leeks found in the early spring). I guess everyone else found them before we did (it was only 9 am when we began the search). We ended up finding spring garlic which was just as good. The vendor told us that these were delicious raw as part of a salad (which we enjoyed that night) but also as part of a melted cheese sandwich (which we enjoyed for lunch):
