Summary
Our fourth cookbook in the Edible series travels to the Twin Cities, where eating local is a way of life and the people live "clean and green." There, a special bond connects the rural growers of Minnesota and nearby Western Wisconsin with the urban farmers' markets and co-ops, resulting in one of the largest sustainable food communities in the county. Meet the area's foodies-the chefs, growers, shop owners--who uphold organic ideals, and savor more than 100 recipes featuring local fare, like Butternut Squash Pancakes, crispy Scandinavian Flatbread, Layered Vegetable Torte, Salsa Verde Beef Stew, and more!
Angelo Gentile resides in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area and is the editor of Edible Twin Cities magazine, as well as the editor and manager of special projects for Twin Cities-based Southwest Newspapers.
