“A beautiful book in every way.”

—Michael Pollan

 

Earth to Table by Jeff Crump and Bettina Schormann is an extraordinary, gorgeously illustrated collection of reflections and recipes in the tradition of Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma and Food Matters. Subtitled “Seasonal Recipes from an Organic Farm,” Earth to Table sumptuously illuminates how good food is grown and how it comes to us—following over the course of one year, the journey from farm to restaurant of delicious organic produce. Featuring thoughts and recipes from some of the world’s most renowned and innovative “slow food” chefs—including Dan Barber (Blue Hill), Thomas Keller (The French Laundry), Matthew Dillon (Sitka and Spruce), and Heston Blumenthal (The Fat Duck)—here is a glorious celebration of the best things on earth, from Earth to Table.

And there is a unique pleasure that comes from gazing at the brightly colored jars before you (perhaps reluctantly) store them away. Canning and preserving is an art, and there is no way I can make you an expert in a few paragraphs (I’m always learning

Keller has commissioned a signature blend of coffee beans for the restaurant and has had the grinding and brewing machines specially calibrated. The brew was served in a pristine sterling silver pot, accompanied by a small ewer of heated milk. Keller’s hackles seemed to go up at the sight of his off-duty server appearing at our

The only thing I’m an expert on is cooking food, and even there I figure I’ll always have more to learn. I’m not a farmer, not an economist, not a nutritionist or an environmentalist. But I am an eager student of food and its role in the world, and so, even though I am certainly no giant, here is the view from my

Meanwhile, the menu at the Old Mill changes. Everything lightens up along with the weather; it’s sautéed, steamed, poached. It’s tender, herbaceous. Just like what we see out the window.
