A trip to the farmers' market

I have posted and raved about my favorite place to buy fruit and vegetables. A true farmers' market where items are very fresh, of high quality and very reasonably priced. I am talking to the market at Castellammare's Piazza Petrolo knows as "lu scaru." These items are from an April visit three years ago. Naturally in Sicily the growing season is 12 months so there's always fresh vegetables to buy. The eggplant was from a green house along with the delicious cherry tomatoes but their flavor not quite as spectacular as in the summer, was very good indeed. We see medlars and naturally citrus fruits that Sicily is famous for. The fava beans were just picked.
