Amelia’s book is really three volumes in one: gleanings from the culture of farming; a guide to produce, meats, and cheeses found at this extraordinary market; and a great cookbook.
—From the Foreword by Deborah Madison
A regional market with national presence, the Santa Monica Farmers’ Market has long inspired both renowned chefs and home cooks. For more than twenty years, Amelia Saltsman has shopped its stands, talked with its farmers, and cooked its magnificent produce for family and friends. The result is The Santa Monica Farmers’ Market Cookbook (Blenheim Press, August 1, 2007), a celebration of the market’s excellence and its hardworking farmers.
What’s the difference between white and green zucchini? What are amaranth, sapote, and ramps? With Amelia as your guide, you’ll learn the answers to these questions and more. In these pages, you’ll find advice on how to select and store produce, stories about farmers and their crops, chef and farmer cooking tips, and over 100 of Amelia's simple, tempting recipes including: |
• Fava Bean and Pea Shoot Salad
• Classic Tomato Soup with a Goat Cheese Swirl
• Black Cod with Green Tomatoes
• Roast Leg of Lamb with Oil-Cured Black Olives and Herbs
• Seared White Nectarines with Burnt Honey
• Meyer Lemon Sundaes with Cara Cara Oranges and Tangelos
