Farmstead Feast: Spring: Delicious, in-season recipes by the author of The Weekend Homesteader

Delicious in-season recipes by the author of The Weekend Homesteader!

Did you ever join a CSA and then drown in bushels of kale and sweet potatoes? Or perhaps you're a homesteader who finally plucked up your courage and learned to pluck a chicken...then couldn't figure out how to serve meat that is more flavorful, but also tougher, than grocery-store offerings.

Perhaps you'd like to eat seasonally in order to cut back on your carbon footprint or to save some cash. Or maybe you were drawn to homegrown produce after converting over to a paleo diet and learning that cabbages and butternut squash from your garden are easy to substitute into recipes that called for pasta.

No matter where your personal food journey has taken you, Farmstead Feast will introduce you to the ever-changing delicacies of a menu that reflects the uniqueness of each season of the year. In this spring edition, you'll learn to wildcraft dandelions and wild garlic, will explore four unique and delicious recipes to use up spring's bountiful eggs, and will follow maple and birch syrup from the tree to the table.

Then, in the end, when your family doesn't realize that there's anything special about these recipes beyond their splendid flavor...that's when you've really won the food battle and served a farmstead feast!
