I spotted the mackerel first thing at the Greenmarket on Monday. Then I saw the yellow mushrooms, and, a few minutes later, some very beautiful bronze fennel; the meal was now completely assembled in my head. But when I brought it to the table, although I had washed and chopped it, I forgot all about …

Spanish mackerel, parsley, lemon, mushrooms; beet greens
We might have been satisfied with a single 10-ounce Spanish mackerel fillet rather than 2. It would have meant we’d each get only about 5 ounces of fish for dinner, which would have been a bit skimpy. The alternative was to bring home 2 of them, which is what I did on Friday. They fit perfectly …
mackerel with mushrooms, lemon, herb, fennel; cavolo nero
Mackerel and Mushrooms? It’s a dream dish if you add lemon, and then not much more is really needed.

pink mushroom/tomato/black sesame flounder; asparagus
It was wonderful. And it tasted as spectacular as it looks. Interestingly, it was assembled with huge portions of serendipity. The first thing I did at the Union Square Greenmarket yesterday was buy the second-last bunch of the first asparagus I had seen this season, inside the first farmer’s stall just inside the entrance. My …
spicy goat sausage, osso buco sauce; beet greens; potato
Almost half of this meal was composed of leftovers. I was already eager to try the goat sausage I had recently picked up at our local farmer/purveyor’s stall in the Greenmarket, and then I remembered that just inside the refrigerator I already had a sauce that would probably be perfect for the kind of richness they seemed to …
