How to Shop at the Farmers’ Market and More

June 10, 2021 • Kristin Donnelly • Season 1 • Episode 9

Peter Hoffman is the former chef and owner of Savoy and Back Forty Restaurants in New York City and author of the new book, What’s Good: A Memoir in 14 Ingredients. He is a longtime supporter of the farm-to-table movement and served on the boards of the New York City Greenmarket, the Chefs Collaborative, and is a Slow Food NYC Snailblazer award recipient.

On most market days, he can be found on his bicycle at the Union Square Greenmarket.

In this episode, Peter and I discuss how plant lives are metaphors for the human experience, the strawberries New Yorkers clamor for every August, how to cook with stone fruit pits, why scraggly rosemary is better than the lush stuff in the supermarket, and how you can learn more about a country’s culture by the types of peppers they grow.
