WHAT IS IT?

That was the question of the day yesterday at the Lake City market.  It was also our most popular item and lots of them went either for eating, to sit on a doorstep, or a table centerpiece!

Galeux d'Eysines (translation - embroidered with warts from Eysines) -- was first seen at the Pumpkin Fair in Tranzalt, France in 1996.  Galeux d'Eysines is sweet, moist, has orange flesh, is great for baking and is also used in soups.  They can weight from 10 to 20 pounds.  Ours averaged around 15 pounds yesterday and today we are going to experiement with a soup recipe using fresh fall apples!
