Fresh Every Day: More Great Recipes from Foster's Market

by Sara Foster, Carolynn Carreño

Fresh. Flavorful. Unpretentious. Food this good doesn’t need much of an introduction, and the inspired, down-home fare served at Foster’s Market speaks for itself . . . and keeps the locals coming back day after day.

In Fresh Every Day , Sara Foster continues the tradition of soulful, seasonally inspired cooking, with more than two hundred of the New Southern recipes made famous at her eponymous markets. She adapts the skills and secrets of a successful professional kitchen for dishes and flavors that speak to the way we really cook at home, from slow-cooked stews and roasted chicken to burgers and salad meals born of leftovers. No elaborate techniques or esoteric ingredients here—just good home cooking elevated to company fare. Cornbread Panzanella with Avocado. Pan-Roasted Halibut with Cherry Tomatoes and Butternut Squash. Fall Off the Bone Baby Back Ribs. Molasses Sweet Potato Pie. “Take these recipes,” Sara invites, “take everything you know and feel about food, and have fun cooking.”

A cookbook for all seasons bursting with recipes easy enough for any day of the week, Fresh Every Day brings new meaning to comfort food.

For me personally, this was an uninspiring cookbook. I just didn't connect with any of the recipes - they either seemed too basic or like they had too many components. I'm sure they're all tasty, but I won't be trying them.

This book is packed with delicious recipes. There are sections on meat that leave the vegetarian wanting, but enough other sections of crisp, healthy natural products to make the read well worthwhile.

This is probably our favorite Sara Foster cookbook, although they are all quite good!

Use it all the time

Excellent recipes for using farmer's market produce. I especially love her recipe for cornbread panzella. It is a great cookbook to have on hand if you are looking for recipes to highlight fresh produce.

I love the concept of this book, cooking good food from simple, healthful ingredients. Unfortunately, I've only been able to find one recipe that fit into our routine. Many of the recipes are a bit too exotic for a family with kids.

All her books are wonderful and the recipes are doable. I love seasonal cooking and tweaking the details that take a meal through the roof.

This is a great cookbook, with easy to follow and realistic recipes. We love to have brunch at Fosters Market in Durham, so it's nice to have some of our favorite recipes to make at home.
