Balsamic-Roasted Strawberries with Pistachios and Honeyed Mascarpone
Roasted strawberries soften a little as their natural sugars caramelize, creating a flavor that is matched well by our balsamic, whose flavor also intensifies as it reduces in the oven. A scoop of honeyed mascarpone served with a spoonful of these balsamic-roasted strawberries makes for a lovely, easy dessert. Serves about 4 to 6.

We've worked with the Bonino family of LJB Farms in San Martin for years and years. They grow the best white corn around, and we're offering it to you for free this week with your coupon when you spend $30+ in our markets! (Valid 7/16/25 – 7/22/25 or while supplies last.)
What makes this corn so great? LJB knows how to grow it and they know exactly when to harvest it. What's better is that we get the corn within hours of it being harvested, so it's as sweet and as tender as it can be. The natural sugars in corn begin to convert to starch as soon as the ears are picked, so the sooner it's eaten after harvest, the better it is. Robbie Sigona, director of Sigona's Farmers Market, shares more details in this video.
Come visit Sigona's Farmers Market in Redwood City or Palo Alto, Calif., or find more info and the coupon at www.sigonas.com. Visit blog.sigonas.com for some of our favorite corn recipes, too!
