Flavors from the Garden
Eighty seasonal recipes from master gardener William Woys Weaver will inspire victory gardeners and CSA shoppers to turn heirloom vegetables into delicious dishes. As a trusted expert in the lore of the garden, you can’t do much better than celebrated author, chef, and custodian of the Roughwood Seed Collection, William Woys Weaver. With recipes that follow the seasons, each chapter guides the reader from the garden to the kitchen to the table, an invaluable and enjoyable resource of growing, harvesting, cooking, and preserving knowledge. Comforting dishes included here range from fresh salads, slaws, and stir-fries to hearty soups and baked goods. Conserves, marmalades, and pickles preserve peak-season produce for yearlong enjoyment. Weaver’s plant-centric recipes include Pennsylvania Dutch favorites as well as inspirations from his global travels. With each bite, these recipes present the delicious biodiversity of local produce and careful preparation. Essays and sidebars enrich the reader’s experience with practical tips on the proper treatment of ingredients.

Internationally known food historian William Woys Weaver presents a richly photographed gastronomical journey into the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch food traditions, with more than 100 heritage recipes and the colorful stories behind them - including Shoofly Cake, New Year's Pretzels and the original Snickerdoodles. Dutch Treats shines a much-anticipated light on the vast diversity of authentic baked goods, festive breads and pastries that we call Pennsylvania Dutch (named for the German-speaking immigrants who settled there starting in the late 1600s).

Sauerkraut Yankees
In addition to the 139 delicious recipes-roast suckling pig to cherry bounced & mulled wine--Weaver paints an invaluable portrait of the Pennsylvania Germans as a people. He focuses on the period of 1830-70, when traditional Pennsylvania-German cookery began to break down under mounting pressures of assimilation, technological changes (such as cooling stoves), & the massive change in life style brought about by the Civil War. Charming line illustrations, chosen from rare nineteenth-century sources, are also included.
