Perfect for you if...

You love cookbooks that tell a genuine story rather than just listing ingredients. You're curious about how food tastes different when you know where it came from. You enjoy reading about someone's real mistakes and triumphs in the kitchen and on the land.

Maybe not for you if...

You want quick weeknight dinners and minimal fuss in the kitchen. You prefer strictly vegan or vegetarian cooking without animal products. You're looking for a pure narrative memoir rather than a book that weaves recipes throughout.

About this book

Suvir Saran, an acclaimed chef and longtime city resident, purchases a farm in the country and begins raising animals and growing vegetables. The book explores what emerges from this transition: farm-fresh cooking and a farm-to-table approach to food. The volume weaves together stories from Saran's new life, including experiences with visiting houseguests, the realities of animal ownership, and involvement in the local community. Sixty recipes are organized by season, and photography documents both the finished dishes and the rural landscape.
