Stuffed Zucchini with spiced beef or lamb from Zaitoun

America--Farm to Table: Simple, Delicious Recipes Celebrating Local Farmers

By Mario Batali, Jim Webster
Grand Central Life & Style - 2014

Carrots with Cumin, Honey, and Ancho Chiles : page 236

This modest-looking recipe produced a beautiful side dish - long carrots with a lovely glaze and bits of herbs. The cumin etc. nicely complemented the carrots, didn't overwhelm them.

This cookbook was a cookbook club selection. A bit difficult in the winter, when the farms are not cranking, but should be great come summer.

My Carrot, Hazelnut, and Ginger Cake : page 278

An unusual carrot cake!
Som problems with the recipe - go by the volume and not the estimated number of pounds of carrots. For me, the 1 lb of grated carrots gave me a full cup more carrot than the 2 1/2 cups called for in the recipe.

Moisture here comes from the vegetables and 1C mayonaise (no oil). The flavor was amped up by 1/4 grated fresh ginger and hazelnuts. I toasted the hazelnuts for a bit more flavor.

The frosting was also unusual. It was a cream cheese frosting that used molasses for flavoring. Wow - good by the finger and on the cake.
