Writer, cooking teacher, television host and bestselling author Amelia Saltsman created The Santa Monica Farmers’ Market Cookbook so home cooks can create flavorful, uncomplicated dishes using fresh, local ingredients. Saltsman's vision was to "use one market as a lens and tell the story of farmers' markets everywhere."
Besides the recipes, the book also includes a guide to produce, meats and cheese, and shares tips on shopping at a farmers' market. Everything is sorted by season making it a cinch to navigate. Despite the lack of photos, there are so many great looking recipes that I'm not sure where to begin! Perhaps I'll try out the Summery Zucchini-Lemon Soup or the Roasted Beet and Blood Orange Salad this weekend!

whoooooa - without photos of what you are cooking - talk about brave!?!? i seriously need a photo either to praise myself for being a kick arse cook or to drown my sorrows with wine if i ain't look nothing like the shot in the book! - let me know how you go!
PS - you iron sheets!?! - a girl after my own heart! my mum would be so proud because secretly we would iron our sheets as well!!
oh, I am all for this. slow food! :)
Kimberlee: I admit, I haven't ironed my sheets in a while, but yes...I do! My grandmother always had ironed sheets and I loved the crisp feeling. Plus, they always felt cooler for some reason!
I love a good cookbook, perfect bedtime reading. Nothing like dreaming of a yummy bowl of soup or crisp salad I will check it out!
