Farmers Market, Fox Studio

Unfortunately not all the usual stalls were here, but there was still plenty of fresh produce, breads, organic meats and eggs and various craft and jewellery stores.

Pumpkin and macadamia nut boule $6.00
I grabbed this loaf which actually contained pumpkin and macadamia nuts. The bread was gorgeous--heavy, nourishing and interspersed with plenty of macadamia chunks.

Our noses were more interested in the smells emanating from the Mojo Picon stall where chorizo sausages sizzled enticingly...

Chorizo roll with plenty of Mojo Picon sauce (orange ) and Mojo Verde (green) $5.50
Apparently the picon is a traditional Canary Island sauce with cumin, paprika and garlic. The verde is more Spanish with flavours of coriander, parsley and garlic.
The mojo picon was so tasty, I ended up buying a jar ($5.00 for 190ml with chorizo purchase).
The chorizo was also very good. Unusually meaty and not too oily.

Rocky Road Museli by Whisk and Pin $9.00 for 500g
What's in it?...

How could I resist...
I plan to have it sprinkled on ice cream... mmm...

Baskets of peaches
We had a picnic at Centennial Park next door and devoured most of our goodies.

I havent been to the Farmers Market at Fox Studio for ages already! Do the same stalls from Pyrmont Growers Market appear?

Hello, Hello.
No, I didn't see the same stalls from Pyrmont there, as I had expected. But, I have seen some of the Pyrmont stalls at the Orange Grove markets on the off-Saturdays though.
Another brilliant and thoroughly researched entry.
'Purple swamphen'? Well, there goes my water fowl joke...
WARNING, WARNING: Boast ahead:
I also just cooked the Touloise sausages that I bought from 'Sam the butcher'. Delicious. Pork, duck and pine nuts. So, taste!
Ate one sliced, with a warm lentil salad.
But, I think the perfect desert would be that Rocky Road museli (which I am now kicking myself that I didn't buy any). Will have to make do with the white nectarines.

*slurp* the pork, duck and pine nuts sausage sounds sooooo tasty! Must get some myself.
Where's the Orange Grove Market? I wonder if the Northside produce market is on this sat or not....If so, I am hoping to snatch some yummies there ;-)
