    Houston farmers market becomes a hot scene: Chef mingling, great food and people watching
    play icon

    For hundreds of Houstonians, a recent break in the city's dreary weather in December and January meant one thing — it was time to pay a visit to Urban Harvest's Saturday morning farmers market.

    With more than 60 vendors selling everything from local produce to a global array of prepared items, the market offers something for any food lover. First time shoppers shouldn't miss macarons from Maison Burdisso, cheese from Blue Heron Farm or Tavola pasta.

    Beyond the food, the people watching is epic. Even people who just buy a cup of coffee and wander from stall to stall will find plenty of entertainment.

    Beyond the food, the people watching is epic. Even people who just buy a cup of coffee and wander from stall to stall will find plenty of entertainment. Families with small children, couples holding hands and a host of Houston chefs populate the market.

    Despite the winter weather, the market offers lots of fresh options for cooking experiments. Want to do more with winter citrus than simple peel and eat (not that there's anything wrong with that)? Chef Ara Malekian sends along this recipe for a citrus panzanella salad that would make a light starter for a group gathering.

    Not saying it's going to pop up on anyone's Super Bowl party menu, but it would be a healthy alternative to chicken wings.

    Citrus Panzanella Salad

    Ingredients:
    •Tomatoes (cut each tomato into 16 wedges)
    •Red onions (julienned)
    •Seasonal citrus (peeled and sliced)
    •Oven-toasted bread, seasoned with olive oil and garlic, cut into 3/4" cubes
    •Chopped kale
    •Balsamic reduction

    Directions:
    •Layer of kale, tomatoes, red onions, citrus, bread and drizzle with balsamic reduction.
    •Repeat layers until desired height is reached in a large salad bowl.

    Balsamic Reduction

    Ingredients:
    •2 cups Balsamic vinegar
    •1/2 cup brown sugar

    Directions:
    •Whisk vinegar and sugar.
    •Reduce 50 percent on low heat.

    Cauliflower is in season right now.

    Brasserie 19's Chamomile panna cotta is layered with Texas peach and bourbon jam, almond florentine, and orange mint.

    Peak peach season is in full bloom, with Houston restaurants placing the stone fruit front and center with dishes and drinks. From savory salads to decadent desserts, here’s where you can celebrate peach season across the city.

    Barbacana
    At chef Christian Hernandez's downtown restaurant, pastry chef Priscilla Treviño puts an elevated spin on peaches and cream with a plate of semifreddo, peach sauce anglaise, and a delicate peach tuile.

    Baso
    The CultureMap Tastemaker Awards’ Restaurant of the Year brings a Basque-inspired twist to peach season. Its endive salad balances the vegetable’s slight bitterness with the sweetness of fresh peaches.

    Brasserie 19
    For a decadent treat, the River Oaks staple is elevating its classic Chamomile panna cotta by layering it with Texas peach and bourbon jam, almond florentine, and orange mint.

    Good God, Nadine's
    The recently-opened cocktail bar near Washington Avenue uses peaches from Lightsey Farms in Mexia for its Peach Whiskey Smash. The cocktail is made with Jameson whiskey, muddled peaches, mint, lemon juice, simple syrup, and walnut bitters.

    Guard and Grace
    The modern steakhouse in downtown is peach-focused this summer. Highlights include oak-grilled king crab with a watercress and peach salad, yellowtail sashimi with peach, Benton’s ham carpaccio with Palisade peach salsa, and oak-grilled pork tenderloin with grilled peaches and tomatillo farro risotto. Sip on a smoked peach bourbon cocktail or a jalapeno peach mojito to complete the experience.

    Honeychild's Sweet Creams
    The Heights’ M-K-T creamery is serving a refreshing peach bay leaf sorbet, with more seasonal offerings coming soon, such as peach cobbler ice cream, white peach shortbread, peach ring ice cream with house-made chamoy, peach jam, caramelized peaches, and candied peaches.

    House of Pies
    Houston’s pie destination packs fresh, yellow California peaches into a pie crust, crowned with dollops of whipped cream. The pie will be available until mid-July, while supplies of peaches last.

    Jane and the Lion Bakehouse
    Already a favorite, the newly opened Heights bakery and cafe is taking full advantage of peach season, packing fresh fruits from local growers into numerous baked goods. Peach-forward bites include: spiced peaches and cream hand pies, peach bread pudding, and peach-strawberry gluten-free muffins.

    On the savory side, diners will find a Texas peach and pecan sourdough with bacon and peaches, basil focaccia, and the ricotta getaway toast with basil pesto and peach on sourdough. For a summer entrée, select the Panzanella Peach, which combines tomatoes, radicchio, peaches, and sourdough.

    Latuli
    Chef Brian Caswell’s newest addition to the Houston dining scene is already making waves, serving peach-focused plates, including a roasted grouper with peach and a peach cobbler for dessert.

    Leaf and Grain
    A fan-favorite seasonal salad, the Peach Panzanella features roasted chicken thighs, croutons, Danish feta, and a honey-white balsamic vinaigrette.

    The Marigold Club
    Goodnight Hospitality’s French-inspired restaurant offers a refined ode to the classic peach Melba. The treat is composed of vanilla gelato, peach-whipped ganache, peach compote, and a raspberry sauce, then finished with a delicate rosemary tuile.

    Pizaro's Pizza
    Starting July 1, patrons can pair one of the restaurant's pizza with a peach caprese salad. The dish features a bed of spring mix greens, drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze, topped with fresh-cut peaches, imported Italian stracciatella, and pistachios.

    Relish
    At both locations of the popular comfort food restaurant, diners can dig into a seasonal burrata featuring pickled peaches paired with heirloom tomatoes, tart gooseberries, peppery arugula, prosciutto, and croutons in saba. Follow the salad with the hearty grilled pork chop, accompanied by pickled peaches, brandy cream, parsnip puree, and bacon-braised collard greens.
