Inspired to provide his growing family with meals as full
of flavor as those he'd enjoyed at his mother's table,
Michel planted a garden of his own. The result was a
delicious array of recipes based on the best the garden—or,
if you're not that fortunate, the organic produce in the
farmers' market or grocery store—has to offer. Sweet
tomatoes and bitter lettuces, peppery radishes and
succulent strawberries—these are but a handful of fruits,
herbs, and vegetables that, served alone or combined with
quality meats and poultry, ripened cheeses, or whole
grains, inspired these 80 seasonal recipes, each one as
good for the body as it is for the palate. Including a
superb chapter on extending the harvest, full of fruit
preserves and jams, pickled vegetables, sauces, salsas,
flavored oils, spice mixes, and even a few refreshing
drinks, Homegrown Pure and Simple is a book that not only
conveys the sheer joy of feeding family and friends well,
but also takes healthy cooking to an exciting—and delicious—
new level.
