Farmers market cooking demos
If you’ve never gone to the Scottsbluff winter farmers market, here’s a reason to go (or a reason to linger longer if you’re already a regular): cooking demos – every market at 2 p.m. (Market runs 1-4 p.m. two Saturdays a month during the cold season at Aulick’s TLC on Avenue B.)
It’s pretty cool when you can get a cooking demo FROM THE PERSON WHO GREW / RAISED / CREATED THE FOOD.
Also cool that you can get ideas for dinner that night – the chefs share their recipes.
Here was last market’s demonstration:
The ingredient vendors
The demos
The results
At this Saturday’s market (February 11), the cooking demo chef will be Sarah Pinet of Victory Hill Farm. Expect a cheesy demonstration. Sarah makes cheese. (She also has a cheesy sense of humor.)
This market should also be fun because it’s close to Valentine’s Day, and the vendors usually have quite a bit of fun merchandise around holidays like that.
And don’t forget that every winter market benefits a chosen charity – if you donate to the cause, you are entered to win a sizable basket of market goodies, such as this one from last week:

This photo didn't even include the "cold items" in the goodie basket that couldn't be left sitting out.
At this next market, you’ll be entered to win if you donate a pair of new/gently used shoes for the Shoe Ministry.
See you at the market! (Or at the next ones: February 25, March 10 & 24, April 7 & 21.)
