Today was the Saturday farmer's market. We met up with our friend Lisa and her niece, Mary, visiting from the Midwest. We found a golden cantaloupe, heirloom green apples, 4 baskets of black currents, rhubarb, ground cherries, cherry-plums, red okra, and dragon beans.
Now, what to do with all that fruit? Time to make pies! We decided on rhubarb-apple and black current-apple pies from the Mrs. Beeton's cookery section. Here I am measuring.
Dicing the apples and rhubarb,
Stemming and adding the black currents.
And the finished pies, minus one which we had for dessert with fresh whipped cream. It was scrumptious!
