Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - FLAVORS BUT NOT LOCALLY
Sorry, but I was very disappointed by this book. It is way to general to be used where I live, and thus doesn't inspire me at all.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Eating Healthy, eating with color
I love this book. First, it is a joy to the eye to look at. The picutes and the colors jump off the pages and warm you up. Second, I love the writing. I love stories that go with each recipe, I like to know the why as well as the how. Third, the recipes are easy and delightful. I am making a list of what to cook when, we are putting in a full garden and I plan on eating each part of it in season. This is a great book for those who want to incorporate more veggies in thier life style. Local Flavors: Cooking and Eating from America's Farmers' Markets



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Flexible approach to cooking with fresh and local foods
I love this book because it helped me to relax in the kitchen. Most of my cooking I learned from prescriptive cookbooks, which works great as long as you buy the specified ingredients and follow the directions exactly. The recipes here encourage you to use what looks good in whatever quantities are available. If the chard looks better than the kale in the market, most of the time you can just substitute the chard.

For the same reason, this is a great cookbook for vegetable gardeners. The flexible approach and the lovely photographs can help you see inspiring possibilities in whatever odd assortment of produce your garden offers on a given day, beyond the perennial stir-fry and stew.





Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Feast for the senses
With some beautiful photographs and lovely farmers market illustrations, Madison does not disappoint with this book, which leads us through the seasons of local produce with recipes as simple as "how to hard boil a pastured egg," and "Honey Ice Cream." Intriguing recipes like "Giant Popover with Chantrelles" and "Nettle Fritatta with Green Garlic and Sheep's Milk Ricotta" highlight the unique delicacies only available in short seasons at farmers markets. Includes nice vignettes about particular farmers markets and particular regional products. Very nice book!
