Summary

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 eaters—and country ones—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 roasted pork chops with apple and 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.  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.

    Unvarnished - A Gimlet-eyed Look...

    A Kitchen Confidential for the cocktail profession, Unvarnished is a fly-on-the-wall narrative peek at the joys, pains, and peculiarities of life “behind the stick.” 
     
    When it opened a decade ago, the acclaimed Los Angeles speakeasy The Varnish—owned, designed, and managed by award-winning cocktail aficionado Eric Alperin—quickly became the stylish standard bearer for modern bars. Unvarnished is a candid, voice-driven, no-holds-barred look at the workings of a bar, and the foundation of The Varnish’s success: attention to hospitality and an abiding belief in the nobility of service.  
    Alperin and veteran bartender and writer Deborah Stoll push back against the prevailing conceit that working in the service industry is something people do because they failed at another career. They offer fascinating meditations on ice as the bartender’s flame; the good, the bad, and the sad parts of vice; one’s duty to their community as a local; the obsessive, compulsive deliberations of building a bar (size matters); lessons from Sasha Petraske—Eric’s late partner, mentor, and the forefather of the modern day classic cocktail renaissance—and the top ten reasons not to date a bartender. At the book’s center are the 100 recipes a young Jedi bartender must know before their first shift at The Varnish, along with examples of building drinks by the round, how to Mr. Potato Head cocktails, and what questions to ask when crafting a Bartender’s Choice.  
    A sexy, gritty, honest look at the glamour-less work of a glamorous job, written with the intimate honesty of The Tender Bar, the debauched inside view of Kitchen Confidential, and the social commentary of Waiter Rant, Unvarnished will take its place among these classics of the service set. 
    Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

    Kosher Creole Cookbook

    From “a pioneering scholar of Southern and Jewish food traditions,” Creole cooking recipes that adhere completely to the laws of Kashruth (The Jewish News).   Blend a dash of Kosher with a pinch of Creole and you have the Kosher Creole Cookbook. The authors have combined two famous culinary traditions: the Creole—blend of certain aspects of French, Spanish, African, and American cooking—and the Jewish, dating from biblical times. Those who keep Kosher can now savor the Creole cuisine for which New Orleans is famous. Imaginative substitutes that unite to create authentic Creole flavor serve to replace ingredients that conflict with the laws of Kashruth. Arranged by month, the recipes highlight feasts and festivals in the Jewish calendar or in the city of New Orleans. Each chapter is also introduced by fascinating sketches about the history, traditions, and culture of the Crescent City.   “This is a delightful and unusual addition to your collection of cookbooks.” —Jewish Week
