    The Market Report

    Farmer Alex Weiser grows "new" potatoes. These are potatoes that have been just dug from the ground and have not had time for their skin to set and get tough.  New potatoes don't need to be peeled and the skin flakes off with your finger.  Alex says they are like the veal of potatoes without any cruelty.

    Amelia Saltsman has a 15-minute fish dinner that uses all farmers' market items.

    She buys a piece of seabass, some Napa cabbage, green garlic and fresh ginger.
