The Broad Fork
The Broad Fork: Recipes for the Wide World of Vegetables and Fruits | Hugh Acheson
1 post | 2 read | 3 to read
From James Beard Award winner Hugh Acheson comes a seasonal cookbook of 200 recipes designed to make the most of your farmers' market bounty, your CSA box, or your grocery produce aisle. In The Broad Fork, Hugh narrates the four seasons of produce, inspired by the most-asked question at the market: "What the hell do I do with kohlrabi?" And so here are 50 ingredients--from kohlrabi to carrots, beets to Brussels sprouts--demystified or reintroduced to us through 200 recipes: three quick hits to get us excited and one more elaborate dish. For apples in the fall there's apple butter; snapper ceviche with apple and lime; and pork tenderloin and roasted apple. In the summer, Hugh explores uses for berries, offering recipes for blackberry vinegar, pickled blueberries, and raspberry cobbler with drop biscuits. Beautifully written, this book brings fresh produce to the center of your plate. It's what both your doctor and your grocery bill have been telling you to do, and Hugh gives us the knowledge and the inspiration to wrap ourselves around produce in new ways.

I subscribed to a local produce CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and got my first share yesterday. Check out all these gorgeous veggies! I‘ll be relying a lot on the tagged book, organized by vegetable, to cook up these beauties. I was pleased to discover that he even has recipes for that kohlrabi! I‘d love any other vegetable-centered cookbook suggestions y‘all have.

Emilymdxn That‘s so cool! 5y
Weaponxgirl That‘s awesome! There is this cookbook and I love Nigel slaters book on vegetables. He gives you common things that work flavour wise with what veg. 5y
