Sustainable slow-food notable Fernald, CEO of the Belcampo meat empire, shows how she carries out her global mission in her own kitchen. Over 100 recipes with “a distinctly old world sensibility and cadence” show cooks how to incorporate “hyperlocal base ingredients” into the family table. Fernald offers earthy, rustic fare typical of farmers in Italy, where cucina povera (tradition incorporating humble ingredients as the basis of something special) dominates. Living and cooking with small farmers, who are artisan food producers in their own right, inspires dishes such as sage and caramelized onion-filled chickpea torte, “Bird and Bunny Ragu” with a vinegar-spiked tomato sauce, and beef involtini with ham and provolone. Balancing out recipes for foundation sauces and broths are snacks, starters, cocktails, and desserts. Essays feature techniques for bringing out the best in ingredients, cooking in cast iron, tips for entertaining, and selecting and preparing the perfect steak. Fernald’s approach advances the importance of celebration, traditional ways of food and farm, and viable food production techniques.

Self-sufficient cooks and ardent carnivores can try their hand at homemade canned goods, broths, cheeses, pastas, sausages, and more using this soulful collection of rustic Italian foods. Sustainable food expert Fernald (coauthor, Strong Waters: A Simple Guide to Making Beer, Wine, Cider and Other Spirited Beverages at Home) and food writer Battilana share more than 100 dishes, including seared lamb heart, olive oil crackers, vermouth cocktails, beer-braised rabbit with shallots, and buttermilk panna cotta. Though some recipes may sound intimidating, the vast majority are simple to prepare, with chapters divided into starters, mains, and desserts. VERDICT For anyone who relishes the act of cooking, this cookbook will be the source of many happy hours in the kitchen.
