Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the increased availability of fresh local produce, shoppers often wonder, What is that hairy fruit and what do I do with it? The Hawaii Farmers Market Cookbook provides complete descriptions of products, explains what to look for when purchasing, and how to prepare market finds. Full-color photographs help identify products. Market visitors may be surprised to discover the unprocessed form of foods previously only encountered chopped and cooked. Tips on shopping at farmers markets, a complete listing of the current markets and their hours, and product seasonality charts are also included. As a project initiated at the growers level, the focus here is on the food. Youll find recipes contributed by some local culinary luminaries, such as co-editor Joan Namkoong, Beverly Gannon and Linda Yamada, but its truly the meats, fruits and vegetables that are the stars.
