Synopsis

Deep Springs, nestled in a remote valley in California's eastern desert region, is a working cattle ranch, sustainable farm, and renowned academic college celebrating its Centennial year. For a century, the Boardinghouse bell has rung three times each day, calling the community together to enjoy home-cooked meals of ranch-grown vegetables, meat, and milk. In this wide-ranging repertoire of recipes, you'll experience Deep Springs' balance between tradition and innovation, and between its iconic American setting and internationaly diverse community. The book welcomes ambitious beginners into the kitchen, explaining not only the "how" but the "why" of essential kitchen practices, and celebrates the creative inspirations that come from cooking and living so close to the sources of our food through the cycles of the seasons.
