garlic
another of my loves!
the behemoth (hee hee texas to mexico's word!!) head is supposed to be the sweetest and I love it's color...Romanian Red it is called and it is about the size of a grapefruit!
the mid sized one is called music
the smallest is the most pungent and a variety called mother lode (I think that was the name...ugh)
better yet the grower gave me a red onion to try.....no charge....she saw i think that I had bought some torpedo onions and said how this red onion is highly sought after....so we shall see, this grower is not local.....and her first time in our market that i have ever seen.....prices were 10 dollars a pound for garlic and 3 for onions, which seemed a bit high, but they did travel from the 209 area code.....coastal northern california i think
