Júlia and Marc were walking through the Mercat de Sant Josep de la Boqueria, a place famous for its vibrant energy and tempting colors.

Júlia, amb la seva llarga llista de la compra a la mà, ja estava concentrada en trobar els millors ingredients per a un sopar familiar molt especial.

Júlia, with her long shopping list in hand, was already focused on finding the best ingredients for a very special family dinner.

"Marc, has de veure això!

"Marc, you have to see this!"

" cridava Júlia mentre es movia entre les parades de fruites de coloraines, verdures fresques i peixos que lluïen com si acabessin de sortir del mar.

Júlia shouted as she moved between the colorful fruit stalls, fresh vegetables, and fish that shone as if they had just come out of the sea.

Moreover, she wanted to impress her brother, who was visiting after a long time.

Mentre Júlia buscava espàrrecs verds i ceba tendra, es va trobar amb una vella coneguda dels mercats, la senyora Rosa, la qual li va recomanar una cosa que Júlia no tenia a la llista: bolets de temporada.

While Júlia was searching for green asparagus and spring onions, she ran into an old acquaintance from the markets, Mrs. Rosa, who recommended something that wasn't on Júlia's list: seasonal mushrooms.

"Aquests bolets són únics.

"These mushrooms are unique.

Donaran al teu plat un toc màgic," va explicar la senyora Rosa amb un somriure acollidor.

Mirà a Marc buscant suport.

She looked at Marc for support.

Marc, que mai deixava passar l'oportunitat per una aventura culinària, li va dir: "Va!

Marc, who never passed up an opportunity for a culinary adventure, said to her, "Come on!

Prova-ho.

Try it.

Si hi ha un lloc per experimentar, és aquí.

If there's a place to experiment, it's here."

"Júlia es va deixar convèncer.

Júlia was convinced.

Va comprar els bolets, preguntant a la senyora Rosa quins eren els millors i com podien cuinar-se amb el que ja tenia pensat.

She bought the mushrooms, asking Mrs. Rosa which were the best and how they could be cooked with what she had in mind.

A poc a poc, el mercat, amb les seves olors i sons, començava a relaxar-la, i una nova emoció la omplia mentre pensava en el talent culinari que estava a punt de desplegar.

Slowly, the market, with its smells and sounds, began to relax her, and a new excitement filled her as she pondered on the culinary skill she was about to showcase.
