Fresh Produce

One of the best lessons I have learned from Top Chef and from the countless other Food shows I'm addicted to is to use fresh, premium ingredients.

When possible try to find fresh, local produce. When I lived in Chicago, I always thought there is NO WAY I could live in Florida....too hot....but truth is....summers are hot! ( Heck...summers were hot in Chicago!) BUT the advantage is we have a great variety of locally grown produce year round.....Florida isn't just citrus!

I picked up all of my ingredients for yesterdays dish from local farm stands. Freshness, flavor....support your local farmers!
