At last pulses are ditching their 70s hippie label and are back in
vogue. Pulses are incredibly economical and healthy and,
increasingly, people are looking for new sources of protein as meat
eating goes on the wane (for both environmental and economical
reasons). The time is ripe for a truly modern look at preparing
these under-exploited ingredients. Including an illustrated guide
to pulses, this exhaustive volume will also cover all you need to
know to buy, prepare and cook pulses, and how to store them. 180
recipes are divided into dips and purees, fritters, croquettes and
patties, soups, salads, formal starters, sides, vegetarian mains,
and 'the full monty' (hearty mains, including meat). Jenny Chandler
has collected a mouthwatering range of recipes that are truly
international in flavour and will provide plenty of tips for
everyday catering. With modern, crisp photography and an elegant
design this is a book to update every foodie's bookshelf and will
be a go-to book for years to come.
The moment you step into a farmers market you are enveloped in a
swirl of colors, aromas, and sounds--brilliant orange squash,
vibrant green beans, glossy eggplant, crimson crab apples, the
spicy bouquet of hot and sweet peppers, ripe muskmelons. Tables are
bursting with sunflowers, honey, and eggs. To your right, freshly
fried doughnuts and steaming coffee; to your left, acoustic guitar
and beautiful flowers. But the local market is not just a place to
immerse the senses--it is where communities come together and
engage in an exchange as old as civilization.
"Minnesota's Bounty" is a user's guide to shopping and cooking
from your local farmers market, and it applies a practical, easy
approach to creating a truly seasonal kitchen. Organized
alphabetically by type of food, it encourages readers to scrap
predetermined recipes and forget the long lists. Instead, shop with
an eye for what looks best and what you are hungry for. With more
than twenty-five years of firsthand experience and a deep knowledge
of Minnesota farmers markets, seasoned cook and food writer Beth
Dooley has suggestions and recipes that inspire simple, modern, and
healthy meals following an ingredients-first philosophy, helping
readers to be more confident and spontaneous both at the market and
in the kitchen.
Including a fascinating history of Minnesota farmers
markets--with particular focus on the downtown St. Paul and
Minneapolis markets--Dooley presents an extraordinary introduction
to our markets and the region's sustainably grown fresh foods. From
a warming Coconut Curry Winter Squash Soup and Heartland Brisket to
a summer's meal of Minted Double Pea Soup, Lamb Burgers with
Tzatziki, and Blueberry Lemon Ginger Sorbet, the guiding tenet of
"Minnesota's Bounty" is splendidly uncomplicated: take this book to
the market, buy the market's best offerings that day, then come
home, cook, and enjoy.
