Eating by the Seasons
A recipe collection put together by The Food Action Committee of the Ecology Action Centre
$10 each
If you want to support local farmers, and get 160 great new recipes that are organized by the season check out our coil-bound cookbooks! The book starts with Autumn and moves through the seasons. Recipes submitted by famous EAC-types, farmers, and friends are peppered with stories and tips.
You can throw away those frustrating recipes that combine ingredients from different seasons!! All recipes feature mostly (but not exclusively) Nova Scotian-grown bounty.
Featured recipes for Autumn include Chili Salsa, Purple Lips, and Blueberry Grunt. Winter features Sylvia’s Beet Cookies, Johanna Nesbitt-inspired Black Bean and Squash Burritos, Carrot Cake, Nova Scotian Fish Chowder chez Joanne Cook (she has that name for a reason!). Spring recipes include the super-easy, tasty, and fast Spinach Squares, Saag Panir, and Spring Parsnip Curry. Summer recipes feature Carrot Cashew Curry, Chocolate Zucchini Cake, Noli Baked Fish, Rob’s Famous Pancake/Waffle Mix, Rob’s Ivy Reid’s Pie Crust for all those berries, and finally, Sadie Takes a Dip (to the EAC AGM).
If that isn’t enough, we’ve included a guide to sustainable seafood, and a guide for finding locally produced food.
All in one handy little $10 package (with no packaging).
