The Food Network's FN Dish Names Top Recipes for Virtual Thanksgiving

I couldn’t be more Thankful!


It is thrilling to get the email that two of the recipes from my soon to be released book, Hamptons and Long Island Homegrown Cookbook were selected by the Food Network for their first-ever virtual Thanksgiving Communal Table! 
Wow! 
Below is the list and links to the full list of food blogger recipes.

Food is love and sharing.
And I am honored and grateful that my talented chefs shared their talent and passion for local, homegrown ingredients and recipes for the book.
 
Imagine the double header of getting the book layout and the news that
not one, but two recipes were chosen by the Food Network! (noted below with asterisks.  Recipes are provided via links and in previous post.)

That’s a lot to give Thanks for!

In the Cocktails, Soups and Salads category, Chef Jonathan Parker, The American Hotel’s www.theamericanhotel.com earned a top spot for his Peconic Clam Chowder. 
It’s local, and delicious!

Almond Restaurant's Master Chef, Jason Weiner
Chosen as one of two Mains, is Almond restaurant’s www.almondrestaurant.com executive chef and owner, Jason Weiner’s recipe, for an amazing Grilled Quail with a warm beet, frisee and pistachio salad. Elegant, easy and sublime taste.

I am gobsmacked to have been invited to participate in this premiere Food Network event.
I was eager to share the delicious, homegrown dishes from my locavore chefs featured in the Hamptons and Long Island Homegrown Cookbook.

I can’t wait to cook up a storm using all the Communal Table Food Network’s curated recipes. 
“pull up a chair.”
The food community is keen to share their love of food.
I know I am.
