Winter Market #12

March 29th, 2025

Life is Betta With Feta

With temperatures in the high 70s, it's positively perfect for an open-air market this Saturday! Here's your chance to shake off the winter/spring slog and add some freshness to your weekly routine. While you might not think of cheese as a seasonal item, guess again! As the seasons change, so does the forage (grasses, legumes, and forbs) for animals as new plants bloom and grow. This in turn affects both the flavor of the milk, and thus, the flavor of the cheese. So naturally a reintroduction to Raspberry Ridge Creamery is in order. They are vending at the winter market for the first time, so you have to try a market favorite: sheep's milk feta! It's tangy, salty flavor will make any dish pop. If you're looking for a appetizer featuring this local cheese, give the Khachapuri recipe a try below. It pairs seamlessly with a side of olives from Jersey Pickles!

Pizza Dough Khachapuri

(Georgian Cheese Bread)

Recipe: delish.com; Photo: glutenfreestories.com

Ingredients

2 cups shredded low moisture mozzarella cheese
1 cup crumbled feta
3/4 cup ricotta cheese
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
10 oz. pizza dough, room temperature
1 large egg yolk
1 Tbsp. butter, sliced into thin patties
Chopped parsley, for garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 450°. In a medium bowl, combine mozzarella, feta, and ricotta. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
On a lightly floured piece of parchment paper, roll dough into an oval ⅛-inch thin. Top with three quarters of the cheese, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Roll up two opposing long sides of the dough, creating a boat-like shape. Twist and roll in both ends. Top center with remaining cheese.
Bake until the cheese is melted and the dough is golden, about 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with parsley. Add egg yolk on center of cheese and top with butter. Tear off pieces of the bread and dip in the cheese and yolk while it’s still hot.

Fresh Market Picks

Raspberry Ridge Creamery

The Raspberry Ridge Sheep and elves have begun making cheese and yogurt for 2025! We're visiting the Easton Winter market this Saturday. We are offering our most popular items including sheep yogurt, feta and Manchego cheese. Come by for our limited production of tasty, healthy and environmentally sustainable sheep dairy products.

Mattie's Strudel Haus

This "Marry Me Chickpea" creation begins with tender chickpeas, bathed in creamy coconut milk, creating a luscious base. Sun-dried tomatoes and tomato paste contribute a concentrated sweetness and tang, while fresh garlic, oregano, and basil infuse the dish with aromatic Mediterranean warmth. Wilted spinach adds a vibrant, earthy counterpoint, all brought together by a drizzle of rich extra virgin olive oil, and seasoned perfectly with salt and pepper. It's a symphony of flavors, designed to captivate your taste buds. You can get yours this weekend at the market!
