Understanding the origins of food can add depth and richness to a dish, whether it's a meal of slow-roasted short ribs on creamy polenta, a steaming bowl of spicy Hmong soup, or a triple ginger rye cake, kissed with maple sugar, honey, and sorghum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJames Beard Award-winning author Beth Dooley provides the context of food origins, along with delicious recipes, nutrition information, and tips for smart sourcing in her book, \"The Perennial Kitchen.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMore than a farm-to-table cookbook, \"The Perennial Kitchen\" expands the definition of \"local food\" to embrace regenerative agriculture, a method of growing small and large crops with ecological services. These farming methods, grounded in a land ethic, remediate the environmental damage caused by the monocropping of corn and soybeans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this thoughtful collection, the home cook will find both recipes and insights into artisan grains, nuts, fruits, and vegetables that are delicious and healthy, while also helping to retain topsoil, sequester carbon, and return nutrients to the soil. These ingredients are as good for the planet as they are on our plates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDooley explains how to stock the pantry with artisan grains, heritage dry beans, fresh flour, healthy oils, and natural sweeteners. She offers pointers on working with grass-fed beef and pastured pork and describes how to turn leftovers into tempting soups and stews. She makes the most of each season's bounty, from fresh garlic scape pesto to roasted root vegetable hummus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe learn how best to use nature's \"fast foods,\" the quick, in this book.
