As we welcome 2016, the vendors of the Aurora Farmers\u2019 Market and Artisan Fair wish everyone a happy and healthy new year. We hope that this year brings wonderful things for all Aurorans and for the Market as well.
\nIn the world of food, 2016 has been declared the Year of Pulses. Pulses are described as \u201cleguminous seeds\u201d and include lentils, garbanzo beans and split peas as some examples. They are very high in protein and considered to be very healthy. So let\u2019s begin the New Year with a simple recipe for a lentil soup.<\/p>\n

LENTIL SOUP with GARLIC:
\n8 oz. red lentils, rinsed and drained
\n2 onions, finely chopped
\n2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
\n1 carrot, finely chopped
\n2 TBSP. olive oil
\n2 bay leaves
\nGenerous pinch dried marjoram or oregano
\n6 1\/4 cups vegetable stock
\n2 TBSP. red wine vinegar
\nSalt and freshly ground pepper
\nCelery leaves, to garnish
\nPut all ingredients, except the red wine vinegar, seasoning and garnish into a large, heavy pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then lower heat and simmer for 1\u00bd hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
\nRemove the bay leaves, add the red wine vinegar and salt and pepper to taste. If soup is too thick, thin with a little extra vegetable stock or water. Ladle soup into heated bowls and garnish with celery leaves. Serve with crusty bread or rolls. ENJOY!<\/p>\n

The next Indoor Market will take place at the Armoury Building, 89 Mosley Street at Aurora Town Park from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, January 9.
