scorpacciata is a word i encountered in the Mario Batali cookbook 'Babbo'. it means to eat not only seasonally, but hyper-seasonally. to consume as much as you can of something, while you can. apricots come to mind. asparagus. heirloom tomatoes. this will be a blog about cooking.... and pop-culture ephemera.... basically the detritus in my brain
I was all over them last year, the first year I had experienced them (there are a couple of fuyu trees in the garden). It looks like yield will be quite a bit less this year, but the taste is still great. Pictured is the 2nd one I've eaten this year, the first went down so quick I neglected to take a picture of it.
