Meanwhile, Back on the Farm

02 Jul 2007, Posted by Jennifer Iannolo in farm

Chef Mark is visiting with me in the Hudson Valley this week for a little bit of work and play, so today we decided to get our hands (and feet) dirty. We took a drive up to New York’s Black Dirt region, famous for its onions, and visited our friend Cheryl Rogowski from Rogowski Farm in Pine Island. Her farm served as some of the backdrop for my Go Daddy commercial, so it was wonderful to see how the farm has progressed in he last couple of years. Best of all, we got to pick our dinner!

The attempt to ban foie gras has come to New York City, and you can be damn sure I’ve got something to say about it. It is time for people to stand up for individual rights with the kind of volume typically reserved for animal rights, and that means you. Are you comfortable with the government dictating what you can and cannot eat?

In part I of our look at British and French cheeses (stay tuned for Part II on ReMARKable Palate #59), Mark and I feature some cheese specialists who offer their insights on what makes each country’s varieties unique in terms of flavor profiles and characteristics. (I’ve taken on Britain as a salute to my dear Mum’s heritage, so Mark will handle the fromagers.) I also review that marvel of entertaining, the…
