Back from New York / Retour de New York

December 7, 2012 by janinka1

Sorry for no posting since long, I was in the United States, Rye (Westchester County, NY) and New York City. As always in America, I am amazed by the lot of beautiful vegetables at Farmer’s markets and even in supermarkets. I took some pictures to share with you, for the pleasure!

Désolée de n’avoir pas posté depuis longtemps, j’étais aux Etats-Unis, Rye (Westchester County, NY) et New York City. Comme toujours en Amérique, je suis émerveillée par la quantité de beaux légumes dans les Farmer’s markets et même dans les supermarchés. J’ai pris quelques photos pour partager avec vous, pour le plaisir.

Parsnips, beets, carrots…
Panais, betteraves, carottes…

Farmer’s market in Rye, Ny

Kohlrabi green and purple.
Choux-raves verts et violets

Il est déjà difficile d’en trouver des verts en France, en tout cas à Paris, je n’en ai jamais vu de violets ! It’s already difficult to find some greens in France, I have never seen purple Kohlrabi, at least in Paris.

De jolies petites pommes
Beautiful small apples

On trouve une très grande variété de pommes aux Etats-Unis, beaucoup plus qu’en France où certaines espèces ont complètement disparu. There is a wide variety of apples in the United States, much more than in France, where some species have completely disappeared.

Thanks for visiting, I hope that I will be giving you a taste of New York now that you are back! That’s true, here there are some things (mostly veggies) that are rare in Europe for example, but at the same time there are the most tasteless fruits I have ever eaten. That was one f my main issues when I moved to NY.

  Thanks for your visit as well! Really about the fruits? I guess it’s because you come from a sunny country rich in tasty fruits. In France it’s also true generally, but not in Paris. For example, I like very much the apples from the Farmer’s market in New York, and there is a so large variety. Small but tasty!
