Cookbook
The Grassfed Gourmet Cookbook is a passionate journey
through the lush, emerald-green fields of America's best pasture-based
farms, where cattle, pigs, goats, sheep, chickens and more are allowed
to roam freely, eating what nature intended and acting on their
natural instincts. "Farming is a world of its own," writes
author and grass-based farmer Shannon Hayes, "tied more to
the ebb and flow of nature than to the pulse of changing food trends."
Detailing her own journey from farmer to foodie then back to the
farm again, Hayes offers simple strategies for finding, preparing,
and cooking pasture-based foods as well as techniques for getting
the most out of your purchases. More important, she uncovers the
nutritional, environmental, and social benefits of grass-fed foods
and exposes the realities and potential dangers of factory-raised
animals, whose appalling treatment in feedlots is evidence of an
industrial food system gone awry.
In The Grassfed Gourmet Cookbook. you'll learn about the
unique flavors and distinct characteristics of foods that come from
animals raised on pasture through a multitude of mouth-watering
recipes-including Hayes's own and her favorites from other pasture-based
farmers from around the country-all carefully selected and tested,
and geared toward home cooks who have a desire to eat healthful,
home-cooked meals.
Finally, Hayes takes you onto the farm and introduces you to the
farmers whose commitment to sustainable agriculture is expressed
in their unwavering commitment to the land they steward and their
loving respect for the animals they raise.
"One of the greatest joys of cooking and serving grass-fed
meats and dairy is knowing that they come from farmers who have
made conscious choices about stewarding the land in environmentally
responsible ways, raising livestock in a humane fashion, and living
their own lives in accordance with their values. Here you'll meet
many of those farmers and have access to their favorite recipes.
It's my hope that as you read their stories and savor their favorite
dishes, you'll come to realize the magnitude of your decision to
support them and their colleagues by making grass-fed meats and
dairy your first choice."- Shannon Hayes, The Grassfed
Gourmet Cookbook.
Shannon Hayes has a Ph.D. from Cornell University
in sustainable agriculture and community development. She is partnered
with her family on Sap Bush Hollow Farm, a pasture-based farm in
New York State. Her essays and articles on food, agriculture, and
rural living have appeared in Adirondack Life and Yankee
Magazine and on Northeast Public radio. She lives with her
husband and daughter in Warnerville, New York.
