Melissa Clark, New York Times Dining Section columnist,
offers a calendar year's worth of brand-new recipes for
cooking with fresh, local ingredients--replete with lively
and entertaining stories of feeding her own family and
friends. Many people want to eat well, organically and locally, but
don't know where or even when to begin, since the offerings
at their local farmers' market change with the season. In
Cook This Now, Melissa Clark shares all her market savvy,
including what she decides to cook after a chilly visit to
the produce section in the dead of winter; what to bring to
a potluck dinner that's guaranteed to be a hit; and how she
feeds her marathon-running husband and finicky toddler. In
addition, she regales us with personal stories about good
times with family and friends, and cooking adventures such
as her obsessive cherry pie experimentation and the day she
threw out her husband's last preserved Meyer lemon. In her welcoming, friendly voice, Melissa takes you inside
her life while providing the dishes that will become your
go-to meals for your own busy days. Recipes include Crisp
Roasted Chicken with Chickpeas, Lemons, and Carrots with
Parsley Gremolata; Baked Apples with Fig and Cardamom
Crumble; Honey-Roasted Carrot Salad with Arugula and
Almonds; Quick-Braised Pork Chops with Spring Greens and
Anchovies; Coconut Fudge Brownies--and much more. Melissa delivers easy, delicious meals featuring organic,
fresh ingredients that can be uniquely obtained during each
particular month. It can be a real challenge to feed
families these days, but Melissa's recipes and inviting
writing encourage home cooks to venture outside of the
familiar, yet please everyone at the table.
