A man for all people: Anthony Road owner John Martini

fltimes.com

On a typical, cold January Saturday in Manhattan, a small COVID-metered crowd wanders through the greenmarket at Union Square Park. Nestled between Martin’s Pretzels and Holy Schmitt’s Horseradish is the Anthony Road Wine Company tent, where you’ll find John Martini. On Sunday, he’ll be at the greenmarket at Jackson Heights, Queens.

John turns 79 this year. If you are wondering why a man of his age still makes this weekly trek, so was I. What drives one of the most dedicated champions of Finger Lakes wines?

Stir-Fried Udon Noodles

Stir-fried udon, yakiudon, is an easy and extremely popular meal. You can replace the pork here with another protein: chicken, beef, shrimp, and clams are all popular options. You can also use cabbage and mushrooms in addition to or in place of the carrots. The key to making good stir-fried udon is the boiling time. Boil noodles (or microwave frozen ones) until they are al dente. Drain and then sauté the noodles so that they are cooked the rest of the way through. The dish has a complex flavor, despite being quite simple to make.
