June Flavor

Flavor Magazine is a regional publication focusing on the Capital Food Shed, Virginia, Maryland, DC. I started to write the Seasonal Table column in January 2011. The June/July issue is out with 10 seasonal recipes. 8 are extremely easy but nonetheless flavorful. No surprise indeed if one cares to choose produce harvested when perfectly ripe. The Wheat Berry Salad and the Spring Lamb ‘stew’ require a little attention and and more time to execute them – but nothing a novice can’t handle. I really love Molly Peterson‘s photos and the way Flavor’s art designer laid them out. Molly is also co-managing Mount Vernon Farm in Sperryville, VA – so has a real appreciation for the seasonality of life on the farm – which I think shows in the way she captures the seasonality of our food.
