  “A celebration of [fruit] and vegetable treasures . . . packed with clear, concise recipes, written in a no–nonsense style” (Farmers Weekly).   No one knows fresh vegetables like Nina Planck. She grew up in Virginia, picking tomatoes, corn, beans, melons, and more on the family farm, and selling it all at nascent farmers’ markets. From the age of nine, she’s answered every question urban—and country—eaters have about produce. In 1999, Nina found herself living in London and, homesick for local food, she started London’s first farmers’ market.   In The Farmers’ Market Cookbook, Nina explains what the farmer knows about every vegetable from asparagus to zucchini—and what the cook needs to know. In more than thirty chapters, each dedicated to cooking with the freshest fruits and vegetables, Nina offers simple and delicious recipes for beef, pork, chicken, and fish, as well as a passel of ideas for perfect side dishes, soups, and desserts—all with produce in the lead role. Try Roast Pork Chops with Apple & Horseradish Stuffing, Blueberry & Almond Crisp, and Risotto with Oyster Mushrooms. Nina also offers tips only farmers would know, kitchen strategies, options for a surplus, advice on what to buy at the market and when, what to look for in an eggplant or a blueberry, and how to keep it all fresh.   As informative as it is beautiful, The Farmers’ Market Cookbook is perfect for any cook who has stared helplessly at fresh produce, praying for inspiration.   Foreword by Nigel Slater, English food writer, journalist, and broadcaster.

  “This mouthwatering collection is stuffed with satisfying Southern dishes that will keep any seafood lover coming back.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)   From the sky, Savannah and the surrounding Low Country resemble an intricate silvery spiderweb of creeks, rivers, marshes, and streams that feed into the Atlantic Ocean. Twice daily, seven-foot tides sweep the intracoastal waterways, nourishing abundant oyster beds. It is a rich marine environment that yields a variety of fresh seafood, and Savannahians have been delighting in their coastal cuisine since the area was first settled in 1733.   In this delightful roundup of the city’s classic seafood dishes, gathered from restaurants throughout Savannah, author Janice Shay has divided the featured recipes into the “major food groups”—crab, oysters, fish, and shrimp, with a nod to a few popular “carpetbagger” scallop recipes. From a hearty serving of Tubby’s Boiled Shrimp to the complex flavors of Mrs. Wilkes’ Seafood Casserole, Shay presents recipes the city’s chefs have refined to perfection. They will delight any cook with their simplicity and freshness. Those unfamiliar with Savannah food will be surprised at the soups, stews, and chowders that define their culinary traditions as well as the constant competition among restaurants as to who serves the best crab cake. Dive in and enjoy food that the whole family will love!  “This book’s a good catch, y’all. My fear is that, after this book hits the shelves, everyone will be buying so much seafood, there won’t be enough left for me.” —Martha Giddens Nesbit, coauthor of Paula Deen Celebrates!  “A mouthwatering adventure into the best restaurants the city has to offer.” —Library Journal

  Champagne Charlie - The...

  Champagne Charlie tells the story of a dashing young Frenchman, Charles Heidsieck, who introduced hard-drinking Americans to champagne in the mid-nineteenth century and became famously known as Champagne Charlie. Ignoring critics who warned that America was a dangerous place to do business, Heidsieck plunged right in, considering it "the land of opportunity" and succeeding there beyond his wildest dreams. Those dreams, however, became a nightmare when the Civil War erupted and he was imprisoned and nearly executed after being charged with spying for the Confederacy.Only after the Lincoln administration intervened was Heidsieck saved, but his champagne business had gone bankrupt and was virtually dead. Then, miraculously, Heidsieck became owner of nearly half the city of Denver, the fastest-growing city in the West. By selling the land, Heidsieck was eventually able to resurrect his business to its former glory.For all its current-day glamour, effervescence, and association with the high life, champagne had a lackluster start. It was pale red in color, insipid in taste, and completely flat. Champagne's success can be traced back to King Louis XV and his mistress Madame de Pompadour, Napoleon Bonaparte, countless wars and prohibitions, and, most important to the United States, Charles Heidsieck.
