Bowls of heavy, red tomatoes; stacks of tender sweet corn; baskets of crisp green beans: this is what summer looks like at the farmers market. The number of farmers markets in Minnesota has more than tripled over the last decade (from 45 in 2002 to more than 150 today) as we search out the healthiest, most delicious, and most local food we can find. The trouble is, sometimes we simply don’t know what to do with a heaping basket of green beans—not to mention $3 of kohlrabi. The Minnesota Farmers Market Cookbook solves that problem. It’s easy to use—you can look up food by name, season, or recipe—and supremely helpful in figuring out how to choose the best produce, store it so it stays fresh as long as possible, and prepare it with simple, delectable recipes that you’ll return to again and again. More than 80 recipes collected from chefs, vendors, and foodies around the state showcase the best of seasonal cooking, from Andrew Zimmern’s zuppa valdostana to Lenny Russo’s grilled pork tenderloin to Atina Diffley’s sesame kale. If you’re not a whiz in the kitchen, don’t worry—author Tricia Cornell explains basic cooking techniques and offers timesaving tips for busy folks who want to eat right. Maps and a complete market directory benefit explorers and rookies alike: if you don’t know where your nearest market is, or you know it so well you’re craving a change of scenery, take a look inside.

Photographs are beautiful. I was looking for fresh, healthy options and did not find much that appealed to me.

The Minnesota Farmer’s Market Cookbook is a not just for Minnesotans. After all, we all like delicious fresh and healthy foods. It does Minnesotans the service of providing information on the state’s many farmer’s markets, but the real bonus is all the valuable information on the food. Each chapter details information on the best varieties, how to choose at the peak of flavor, and how to store. The good shopping and storage information is invaluable. There are a few recipes for each of the forty The Minnesota Farmer’s Market Cookbook is a not just for Minnesotans. After all, we all like delicious fresh and healthy foods. It does Minnesotans the service of providing information on the state’s many farmer’s markets, but the real bonus is all the valuable information on the food. Each chapter details information on the best varieties, how to choose at the peak of flavor, and how to store. The good shopping and storage information is invaluable. There are a few recipes for each of the forty plus chapters as well as several appendices. The first reorganizes the recipes by categories (soup, dessert, appetizer) instead of by main ingredients. The second organizes the food by month, this information is applicable to Minnesota, not all of the country. The third appendix details cooking techniques and the last has the addresses and hours of the many state farmer’s markets. This is a good cookbook for folks who love fresh, delicious, and health food. The pictures are beautiful. The information on selecting and storing foods is useful, though the seasonal timing will vary in other states. There is an unfortunate typo that made me giggle, adding some time rather than thyme to a recipe, but then we can always use more time. I made this Smoky Pea Soup from the cookbook, intrigued by its suggestion of using coffee beans to add flavor to the soup in place of bacon. It’s a vegan soup with as rich and deep a flavor as the more common bacon or ham and split pea soup. The recipe could have used more detail. For example, I assumed that I needed to remove the bay leaves and coffee beans before pureeing the soup, but that step was left out of the recipe. Nonetheless, common sense guided me to take them out. The soup is delicious, smoky, with a deep base of heat from the dried red chili flakes. For friends and family back in Minnesota, you need this book. For the rest outside the state, the cookbook is still a great information resource and full of delicious recipes. ★★★ http://tonstantweaderreviews.wordpres...

Going to the farmer's market and need some ideas for what to make with your purchases? This book may be able to help. A variety of regionally grown produce is featured in this pretty cookbook. Each fruit or vegetable is featured individually and general facts are given on each one in addition to some recipes.

This is a very well-written recipe book with lovely illustrations. The recipes look delicious--the bounty of the farmer's market can be a real treat. The main focus of the book is Minnesota. There is a map of the state's markets; information about when the produce is in season and the history of the items in Minnesota is peppered throughout. An absolute must-have for the Minnesotan, and a fun read for the rest of us. I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads.

Surprisingly more than just a good cookbook. Provides excellent ideas on how the concept of cooking with the ingredients should work. Also information on when ingredients are available in local farmers markets and how to select the best qualities.

If I didn't already have a couple of farmers' market cookbooks on my shelf, I would buy a copy of this one. It strikes an excellent balance between information and recipes.
