Green Market Scones

There is a lady at the Union Square Greenmarket on Wednesdays and Fridays, and when she has scones, her booth is a mob scene. I’d gotten good intel about her and her fodder from several reputable sources, including my Culinistas and a few trusted home cooks.

Finally, one day last week, I wandered over to the market. I had no idea the name of her booth/farm/scone commissary, but I figured if she were so special, I’d see the crowds. I was right! Her stand was barely visible through the scone-frenzied throng, people shouting for “four chocolate, two corn-cran, six currant!”

I settled on trying one chocolate chip and one corn-cran. Both were fantastic! I preferred the corn-cran. I certainly have a new go-to for scones now, and I suggest you check it out. But go early; when I returned a few days later in the afternoon, she’d long run out of her goods.
