Robbie Sigona is our produce buyer. He works with local farmers and scours the market for the very best in fresh fruits and vegetables — some you won’t find anywhere else.
Locally-grown arugula from San Juan Bautista down to Salinas is available from April-November.
Fresh arugula should be all green. A light green is ok, but avoid yellow leaves.
Arugula is extremely delicate and should be used within a day or two of purchase.
Keep refrigerated (stored with a damp paper towel) until you eat.
If you rinse the arugula, be sure to remove as much moisture as possible before adding to a salad or tossing with a vinaigrette.
Now is the best time of year to get fresh, wild mushrooms at Sigona's! The wild Chanterelles, Morels and Porcinis are in and they're fantastic. The Morels and Porcinis are foraged from the Mount Shasta area in California. Their season is short because once it starts to warm up for summer, the growing season ends. Don't miss this opportunity! Visit us in Redwood City and Palo Alto, California.
