This recipe was featured during the September 20, 2014, cooking demonstration and sampling at the market. Students at the F.D. Myers Education Center of the regional WSWHE BOCES and guest chefs from the Saratoga & Glens Falls Chapter of the American Culinary Federation worked to create several dishes featuring market ingredients.

The event was co-organized by the Saratoga Farmers’ Market and BOCES Chef Instructor Maureen Clancy, who is also president of the local ACF chapter. The event coincided with the 30th Anniversary celebration for the market’s neighbor, the Saratoga Springs City Center.
