6. The New Greenmarket Cookbook: Recipes and Tips from Todays Finest Chefs — and the Stories behind the Farms That Inspire Them by Gabrielle Langholtz
Why you need this book: Mario Batali, Daniel Boulud, and Eric Ripert are just a few of the amazing chefs who contributed healthy recipes highlighting the produce they love from New York City’s Greenmarket in Union Square.
The most intriguing recipes: Daniel Humm’s Dill Pickled Ramps; Christina Tosi’s Pickled Strawberry Jam; Dan Kluger’s Roasted Kabocha Toast with Fresh Ricotta; Michael Anthony’s Flat Iron Steak with Freekah and Peppers; Bill Telepan’s Carrot Pancakes with Maple Pears
Smart tips: “Interesting eggs are always abundant in asparagus season, so consider pairing asparagus with duck eggs instead of chicken eggs.” “Don’t toss out the cooking water after boiling stinging nettles–many people seek out nettles precisely to make tea, for both its woodsy flavor and healthful properties.”
