Eat Like a Farmer
Leave it to the folks actually growing the food to show us the most delicious ways to eat farm fresh! Enjoy this collection of recipes from some of our favorite farmers in southwest Wisconsin...
Torta di Riso with Swiss Chard
Mary Ann & Marc Bellazzini of Campo di Bella Farm to Table & Winery share their recipe for this traditional Italian favorite.
Zucchini Cherry Muffins
If sour cherries are hard to come by, feel free to substitute dried cherries or an alternative berry.
Tomato Toast with Scallion Cream Cheese & Everything Spice
One of the best things about tomato season is the ease with which you can create a fresh snack or meal with only a couple of ingredients. During tomato season, this 10-minute breakfast is our go-to way to enjoy tomatoes still v warm from the garden or field.
Soft Bavarian-Style Pretzels
Although you need to start these a day ahead of time, you’ll be amazed at how easy it truly is to twist up your own soft pretzels. Pair these with our beer cheese and honey mustard dips!
Carrot, Potato & Celeriac Soup
This root vegetable soup makes a perfect accompaniment to a simple Sunday roast chicken or rustic wine- or beer-braised beef.
Grilled Green Beans with Butter & Almonds
After a long day at the farm, my favorite way to spend an evening is with a quick dinner in our backyard (where work and farm talk is never allowed). We fire up the grill and keep dinner simple with an easy side that can be prepared alongside the grilled meats. It is as effortless as it is delicious.
Warm Winter Salad With Roasted Butternut, Lacinato Kale & Hazelnuts
Always trust a farmer to bring a big, delicious bowl of greens to the winter table. This one, adapted from Samin Nosrat’s Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat, brings together creamy squash with crunchy butternut and hazelnuts on a bed of kale.
Cranberry Bean Stew
Pig farmers and farm-to-table zero-waste caterers Erin Crooks Lynch and Jeremy Lynch of Enos Farms in Spring Green aim to strengthen the local food economy by cooking meals for others just like this Cranberry Bean Stew. The recipe is flexible enough to incorporate whatever the season dictates and relies upon local food producers.
