Cookbooks for Fresh Inspiration

Summertime brings with it the desire to cook less and eat fresh. By which we mean, stews and roasted dishes — anything involving hours at the stove — becomes about as appealing as going to the beach with your winter coat on. Still, we love our food, and summer brings an abundance that is downright inspirational. So what to do with all this fresh stuff? Well Lula’s Pantry can help you out in this department, as we carry the perfect cookbooks for summer. Want to know how to enjoy a meat-free but taste-filled season? Try out the recipes from the Market Vegetarian cookbook. Ready to enhance your skills at your outdoor grill? (But don’t want to spend hours doing so?) Then check out the new cookbook, Easy Grilling. The title says it all. And finally, the amazing chef, Marcus Samuelsson, has a cookbook called The New American Table, described as “An affectionate, thoroughly diverse tribute to the modern American table.” Chef Samuelsson is a master at bringing together classic clean Scandinavian flavors and techniques with our American desire for big flavors.

So no need to fire up the stove for hours on end — just fire up your imagination with these (and more) cookbooks, available at Lula’s Pantry!

New England at its Best

The summer season brings visitors to Rockport from all over the world. And it seems that each one them, understandably, wants to capture a little of New England to take home with them. Sidehill Farm jams from Vermont provide the perfect taste of New England to take away from a visit to a region so rich in culinary pleasures. The only downside is that these jars of jam often don’t make it past being slathered on a piece of fresh bread and enjoyed back at the Bed & Breakfast or hotel. Or in the rental car. Or anywhere else as a fresh-tasting on-the-go snack. Inventive flavor combinations and small-batch production make Sidehill Farm jams the perfect souvenir of life in New England. And the best part is, this holds true whether you’re a yearly visitor or a year-round local.
