Rizzoli (2019)

This splendid cookbook will be treasured by any cook who respects the gifts that nature—by way of the gardener—offers for our table. Arranged by the phases of the agricultural calendar, it teaches how to preserve our Mediterranean growing region’s citrus, figs, quince, olives, grapes, tomatoes, peppers, herbs, and alliums for the larder and then incorporate them into memorable dishes from revered Mediterrannean culinary traditions. Try the citrus risotto, a duck leg braise with saba, garlic, and cultured polenta, or pork chops grilled on oak embers served with a quince mostarda (a special condiment to make right now during the short quince season). The collection springs from the authors’ experience at Stone Edge Farm, Stone Edge Farm Winery, and Edge restaurant in Sonoma.
