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.
Why settle for tiny, dry raisins when you can have luscious, plump, deluxe, jumbo Golden Raisins, grown in Madera, CA? We have them on sale now here at Sigona's and they're perfect for baking, snacking and incorporating into other dishes. You have to try our Pan-Seared Rosemary Pork Chops with Savory Apple Chutney, which calls for raisins. It's so good! Find the recipe on our blog: https://blog.sigonas.com/2022/09/02/pan-seared-rosemary-pork-chops-with-a-savory-apple-chutney/
