At the Union Square Greenmarket, Migliorelli's got perfect golf ball-sized red beets for $2 a bunch (eight per bunch). I would have taken a picture but I ate them all already. Sorry. I roasted them and tossed them in a green salad, with a healthy wedge of fourme d'ambert raw cow's milk blue cheese on the side. Tomorrow, I'm going to cook the abundant greens down with the last smoked chicken wing from Monday's smoke-out. Migliorelli also had generous bunches of young dill for $1. Take advantage of the deals at the Greenmarket while growing season is here.
