Purple sweet potatoes (pie!), gold rush and pink lady apples, batard of country white, dragon's breath cheese, chicken empanada, apricot tartlet, green bell peppers, rutabaga, candy onions, ground bison, and a bison hanger steak (on sale). I also asked the bison vendor if they ever sell suet -- he didn't know, but gave me their head of farmer's markets person's card so that I can contact them and ask.
I'm currently rendering the 6 oz of leaf lard I got a while ago with this method. We'll see how it turns out. I will say that cutting it up with my ulu was quite like cutting butter in texture, so I hope it turns out well. At the very least, it should be an interesting attempt.
Later, I'm making the Indian-spiced tumeric-potatoes-cauliflower-peas dish. Yesterday, I used the gingerale recipe to make galangal ale, but in doing so broke my 20 yr old food processor -- turns out that galangal is a lot harder root than ginger. Oops.
