Brooklyn to Broome (And a Latke recipe)

Christmas (December 25) and Hanukkah (starting tomorrow) await.

What a food festival this next week will be.

On Thursday, merchants from Brooklyn (a borough of New York City) traveled some 150 miles to bring the residents of the Binghamton, New York area (Broome County) Italian goodies.

A couple of pictures I was able to get (it was crowded):

Italian cookies and breads.

Italian cheeses and cured meats.

Meanwhile, food for Hanukkah await.

Parsnips (also in the picture, orange and red beets, and Jerusalem artichokes).
Potatoes for latkes (also in the picture: turnips)
And local mushrooms, for both Christmas and Hanukkah.

Happy holidays!

And, if you are looking for a latke recipe, you may want to try this one from 2017.  
And for music, check this post out.

More Hanukkah enjoyment tomorrow and Monday.

  2. Yum!!!! I love Latkes, I'm not Jewish, but it was a staple in our household growing up (Croatian). I find it so interesting how cultures mix, smiles (I mean that in a good way, smiles).
