Our Last Greenmarket Demo of the Season

November 23, 2009
Spiced Sweet Potato

Today was my last day doing a demo for the Greenmarket in Union Square.  I made Spiced Sweet Potatoes, which is cubes of sweet potato cooked in broth with cumin, coriander, ancho, and cinnamon.  Although it was freezing out there this morning, it was a very successful day, and by the time I left every single recipe print-out  had been taken.  Two weeks ago a mother came with her daughter Lily to our Brussel Sprout Demo.  They really liked the recipe and came back to try another one this morning.  Lily licked her sample cup clean, and after having had seconds it had a hole in the bottom.  Her mother told me that her son had refused to eat brussel sprouts until she made our recipe for them with soy and garlic.  That was one of the best compliments I have ever gotten. If kids will eat their brussel sprouts because of me, I feel like I can go to sleep with a healthy conscience. To all of you who have come on Mondays to see what we are doing, I thank you for your support.  Lots of people said they were going to make the recipe this Thursday for Thanksgiving, so if you are looking for something different, give it a go!
