I'm hitting the market twice a week, seeing what's coming in and going away, and posting when there's something good.

I didn't try them, but they did look good. Scott I did indeed talk to the salt guy at length; I wish I had known about your conversation! He's pretty cool, and has an astounding collection of salts. It's been hot here so last night I made a ceviche with cod, avocado, oranges, and fresh currents, to share with our lovely neighbors, Lars and Sarah, and their friend Eric. Really hit the spot!

A fantastic exchange experience! Did you talk to the salt guy there? I told him about you, and he was interested in some of your ideas. The only problem we had was the Westerkerk, which had its bell going off every 15 minutes all night and day. We also stayed in the Jordaan last year, only a few minutes from the market.

It actually tastes okay if you go to a good bakery, but it's really more like a pillow than a loaf of bread. Are those greenish-red things behind the garlic tomatoes? We've started seeing so-called "black" tomatoes in the supermarkets here, but none so far in the outdoor markets. Yeah, isn’t Dutch bread disappointing?
