The San Francisco Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market Cookbook: A Comprehensive Guide to Impeccable Produce Plus 130 Seasonal Recipes

"The San Francisco Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market Cookbook" was written by folks that frequent the farmer's market at San Francisco's Ferry Building.It's divided into 4 sections, one section per season. Within each section are recipes using the fruits and veggies that are in season. Most recipes have wonderful color photos - honestly, you get hungry just looking at this book!Examples of some of the recipes: How about Roasted Halibut with Braised Artichokes and Potatoes? Or Blackberry and Nectarine Crisp? Are you hungry yet?

Truly an amazing find!

I bought this book to replace a copy that I had that was lost when I moved and it has so many good recipes. My favorite is "Ruth's Grilled Quail" and the reason for that is because the person who provided that recipe was my grandmother Ruth Hoffman who recently passed away. This is a favorite cookbook of mine and I recommend to anyone who wants to know about the Ferry Plaza Market or try recipes provided by the vendors.

I go to the Ferry Building on a fairly regular basis. This cookbook makes you feel like you are right smack dab in the middle of the ferry building even when you are not. Just tried the strawberry jam recipe - it's fabulous. All the recipes I have tried have been fantastic. I like to give this cookbook as a housewarming gift along with a few tea towels. Even if you are not a cook, the pictures in this book are awesome.

Our family loves recipes from this cookbook. Everyone can find at least one "favorite". The book includes fresh ideas for items that can be found in our local farmer's market as well as a few items that we had to seek out. We use recipes from this book at least once a week. If you are a vegetarian family like us, it is nice to find alternative side dishes. All the recipes are good as is....however, they also lend themselves easily to substitutions.

This is an excellent source book for fresh food recipes in the Bay Area. Plus some family friends are in it (the Webers, of Della Fattoria in Petaluma, CA). Highly recommend this interesting and different cookbook.

I love going to the Farmers Market in SF on Saturdays. This wonderful book provides plenty of tips of what to buy each season, with fabulous suggestions on how to prepare a variety of items, as well as informative tidbits about some favorite vendors. Excellent!!
