Northeast FLAVOR Magazine - Summer 2012

In this issue

Quick . . . when we say “summer food in New England”, what pops into your head? Lobster and the freshest possible shellfish eaten at a seaside shack? Throwing whatever you can think of on the grill at backyard barbecues? Unabashedly eating ice cream at a picnic table?

In this Summer issue of Northeast FLAVOR magazine, we show you how to escape the heat but still eat well while camping with your family in cool forests, invite you to try new food from a dazzling array of food trucks at summer fairs and festivals (it’s more than cotton candy and hot dogs), and show you how New England cooks are earning their props as serious contenders in the competitive world of barbecue.

We profile a farm that changes lives as it grows produce, and have the perfect cool drink for whatever comes your way this summer, from smoothies to tequila to our favorite new summer refresher, vinho verde. We take you to the seaside for the perennial favorite, salt water taffy, and show you how to make your own ice cream.

Julia Child would have celebrated her 100th birthday this August 2012, and we pay homage to her indomitable spirit by talking to the chefs that were privileged to learn from her as a teacher and know her as a friend.

Come celebrate with us as we take in all this wonderful season has to offer. Bon Appétit!
