food finds at la's farmers' markets.

i'm always more than a little pleased when farmers' markets in my area (other than the grand dame, santa monica) are given some warm fuzzies by the mainstream press. this article by la times food writers russ parsons and betty hallock offers a nice rundown of some local eats found at our markets. my recs from their list include the aebleskivers in torrance on saturdays and the ubiquitous, and still delicious, corn maiden tamales.
