Más información sobre el libro

Described as "a tiny slice," Burdock & Co operates from a small room on Vancouver's Main Street, yet it offers a groundbreaking, award-winning menu inspired by the rich natural world. Chef Andrea Carlson captures the essence of the Pacific Northwest's coastlines, islands, farms, and forests to craft fresh, seasonal dishes with delicate complexity. Her debut cookbook showcases vibrant recipes that reflect the colors, aromas, and textures of local ingredients. Through a lyrical narrative, Andrea explores the potential of nature in cooking, whether highlighting fish offcuts or celebrating freshly picked rosehips. She introduces the sustainability-focused farmers and foragers in her community, demonstrating how their contributions translate into multi-dimensional recipes. Inside, readers will find unexpected takes on comfort classics, such as Buttermilk Fried Chicken & Pickles and Black Trumpet Mushroom Risotto, alongside vegetable showcases, fish and seafood dishes, and delightful desserts like Salted Caramel Apple Pot Pie. Unique cocktails and experimental fermentations also feature prominently. This evocative and playful cookbook invites readers to embrace the natural rhythms of their surroundings, celebrating the elements and seasons while inspiring creativity in the kitchen.
