THE FARMSTEAD EGG COOKBOOK taps into the trend that eggs are healthy to eat again. High-protein, low carb diets have boosted egg sales, and the American Heart Association has relaxed their egg consumption guidelines. Golson believes strongly in eating organic farmstead eggs -- they have a richer flavor, deeper color, and a better texture than the average grocery store egg. She calls them the ultimate comfort food, reassuringly basic but always deliciously special at the same time. In the FARMSTEAD EGG COOKBOOK she gathers 70 healthy, hip and easy-to-make egg recipes with full color photos throughout. Learn how to properly cook everything from boiled and scrambled eggs to dishes that really celebrate eggs like: smoked trout and peeper frittata, pesto vegetable quiche, Moroccan tangine with meatballs, tomatoes and eggs, almond and orange pound cake with orange glaze, and sweet potato pie with bourbon-meringue topping
A year of fresh, simple, seasonal cooking from a rising-star chef running his grandfather's five-acre farm on Martha's Vineyard. This is the heartfelt declaration of a new American way of food, celebrating a year of cooking and farming on the island of Martha's Vineyard. Chris Fischer is a chef, farmer, and writer whose roots on the island run twelve generations deep. His cooking combines practical, rural ingenuity with skill acquired in the world's leading kitchens. The result is singular and exciting. Beetlebung Farm, his grandparents' five-acre parcel in the town of Chilmark, is both Fischer's inspiration and the source for the fine raw materials he showcases. These recipes express the unique understanding of ingredients that comes from a life spent hauling in lobster pots, cultivating vegetables, tracking game in the woods, and butchering his own meat. In this beautifully illustrated homage to the family and community that raised him, Fischer weaves seasonal menus through stories of growing up on the island, conjuring the smoke of oak-wood fires, the brine of Great Pond oysters, and the satisfaction of a well-earned meal. The Beetlebung Farm Cookbook is a clear and essential record of contemporary New England cuisine.
