Last Hurrah for the Prudential Farmer's Market

That’s right, tomorrow is the last market of the season for Prudential Farmer’s Market. We had our doubts initially, but as the weeks went on, Rachel and I grew to love the Prudential Market. It’s hard for any market to establish itself, but the brand new Prudential Market has some strong points on its side. First off- location, nestled right in the heart of Back Bay close to hundreds of offices and one of the best shopping districts in Boston. Next- the selection. The Prudential Market is packed with local farm vendors, baked goods, breads, cheeses, maple syrup and of course, pasta! We have had a wonderful time getting to know our Boston customers and love the friends that visit us weekly (thank you Laura!). So before getting too sappy (I had enough of that during last night’s Biggest Loser… don’t even get me started), we’ll fill you in on tomorrow’s menu…

First off, we changed up our usual prepared pasta. Tomorrow we’ll have fresh rigatoni with roasted brussels sprouts in a roasted garlic brown butter and topped with parmesan and toasted pine nuts. We’re not lying when we say we have a new favorite– there’s just something about adding roasted garlic to our brown butter with a hint of apple cider, apple cider vinegar and a number of fall spices the come together to make the perfect autumn meal. Pop it in the microwave and YUM.

For fresh pastas, we’re bringing back our 3 cheese and roasted garlic ravioli, a roasted sweet potato and apple butter ravioli, white capellini and linguine and whole wheat & ground flaxseed ravioli. While we are very close to nailing down our list of stores where we’ll sell out pasta during the off-season, tomorrow may be the last chance for the next couple weeks to buy Nella Pasta in Boston, so come by and stock up! All of our fresh pastas freeze beautifully our dried rigatoni can be kept in the pantry for several months.
