That can be a curse sometimes (I'm really not a perfectionist), but it suits me just fine. And Carroll Gardens is one of my old nabes! Third Street between Smith and Hoyt! Love it. I hope you are visiting Caputo's (if it's still there).Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08337291320368324416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516199892122090215.post-87575550799347113652010-05-06T11:03:28.405-04:002010-05-06T11:03:28.405-04:00That is my kind of salad.

Love the color that the radishes bring and the favas bring back such sweet memories of my Italian upbringing.

This looks like one of those wonderful meals.<br /><br />And just look at that -- the fava beans, radishes, asparagus, chives, and ramps! It's like the whole of spring captured in one place.Lohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02627131190832189839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516199892122090215.post-7011219085748914402010-05-04T04:47:42.630-04:002010-05-04T04:47:42.630-04:00I agree - GOODNESS!!I agree - GOODNESS!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516199892122090215.post-80579584714233471142010-05-03T16:25:24.579-04:002010-05-03T16:25:24.579-04:00That looks amazing!

(The two things I remember from the cottage were the trout and the clock, which had only an hour hand which pointed to oneish, twoish, threeish, etc) <br />We're collecting ramp (and spring/green garlic) recipes for this month's 'virtual veg of the month club' -- http://wp.me/pJTRQ-sr -- have a look we'd love to include your trout!innBrooklynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09545384709159421642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516199892122090215.post-82857285319402744992010-05-02T22:00:41.014-04:002010-05-02T22:00:41.014-04:00Yum...Your "what do I have on hand" dish...Yum...Your "what do I have on hand" dish looks completely sumptuous!<br />We just bought favas today.

SF'ers are so lucky with that thing. in CA in general i was gorging on favas,artichokes & avocados!tigresshttp://www.tigressinapickle.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1516199892122090215.post-39804444272767884272010-05-02T10:48:18.046-04:002010-05-02T10:48:18.046-04:00Kaela - Now I'm jealous!

That's going to be filled with goodness!<br /><br />RCakewalk - Oh, it made me so happy! The radishes are my first full harvest. Wish I had sown the others right after. There was a little lag...Now I'll have to wait a few weeks for more...<br /><br />Tigress - How did you cultivate them? Can you plant ones you've bought, like most onion-y things? That is an idea I've just recently been mulling over.
