More than any other chef at work today, Michel Nischan
creates sophisticated, modern food by embracing the food
tenets of the past: Use what’s readily available, celebrate
variety, respect the land, and eschew waste. Whether it’s
explaining the virtues of secondary meat cuts, which fish
are in least danger of overfishing, or how heritage bean and
grain varieties help to support biodiversity as well as
healthy diets, Sustainably Delicious proves that the
most satisfying food comes from a passionate respect for
America’s culinary and environmental legacy. Many of
the recipes reflect Nischan’s Midwestern roots and the
innate frugality that dictated his family’s meals be made
with humble, seasonal ingredients. In Nischan’s confident
hands, simple foods such as barley, celery root, and eggs
shine. With recipes such as Heirloom Beet Salad with Savory
Marshmallows, Tomato Rice Soup with Braised Beef Shanks, and
Leg of Pasture-Raised Lamb Stuffed with Chestnuts and Dried
Cranberries, Nischan’s approach to farm table cuisine is
anything but precious.
