I love a good cookbook. I read them. I browse them. I cook from them. I get inspiration from them. One that I love is The Broad Fork by Hugh Acheson. I appreciate how he uses the all different parts of the ingredients, which I also like to do. I highly recommend The Broad Fork especially for CSA members because of how he uses different vegetables and the leaves as well as the roots and shoots.
Yesterday, I got a chance to catch up with Chef Acheson who was in Brighton touring with a shiny Airstream, an All-Clad slow cooker full of 12 hour pork shoulder carnitas, a rainbow of Cholula hot sauces, and a brand new book.
You have missed the tacos from yesterday afternoon by now (I gave everyone a heads up on my @BostonCityLiving insta story prior to the event), but you can try to catch the chef on his next stop. If not, track down The Chef and the Slow Cooker as a great gift for the holidays (and I give you permission to buy yourself this gift too.)
