Author
and Examiner.com Food & Drink editor, Leeann Lavin tells the
good-food stories of farmers who rise before the roosters to bring fresh
produce, meats, cheeses, honey, and seafood to these local chefs and area
farmers’ markets. She profiles Long Island’s best pasture-to-plate chefs who
kick off the day with an early trip to the markets & local growers and wrap
it up in the wee hours of the night, after feeding legions of appreciative
diners. The food stories are lovingly told—exploring the work and passion of
the chefs and the local food artisans, farmers, and fisherman—who together, are
dedicated to connecting to the land to produce menus that boast delicious
homegrown flavors. The book offers a rare and intimate tour of the kitchens and
gardens that create local, seasonal food.
Brimming
with food stories from the region’s best real-food chefs and the growers who
inspire their homegrown menus, more than 80 tempting recipes, and stunning
photographs of the iconic dishes, authentic & sustainable ingredients,
and the majestic land and seascapes that are the romantic hallmarks of the
area’s food culture. Two chefs featured in The
Hamptons & Long Island Homegrown Cookbook
and the growers who inspire their homegrown
recipes will join Leeann to demonstrate their masterful cooking using local,
fresh ingredients. Tastings too!
