Summers, whose grandparents owned a hog farm in Missouri, was so inspired by her childhood farm experiences that she dedicated her debut cookbook to the pig itself. The Whole Hog Cookbook (released early this month) is an authentic ode to pork—with sustainable solutions for using the whole hog from snout to tail. The book (published by Rizzoli) is a hard-bound visual, culinary and literary delight. Recipes are peppered with appetizing imagery and quirky, off-beat stories of Summers’ life experiences like growing up on a small farm and traveling the world as a chef. The tales, appropriately dubbed “Pig Tales,” proceed each chapter of the book and make it humorous and relatable. Even the recipe introductions reveal Summers’ clever and simplistic approach to making menu items come to life.

Bolsavik,True story. I went to high socohl with the guy that was killed (he’s one year my sr. I believe). The rumor then was he owed gambling debts and was killed, but the whole thing was shrouded in mystery. Gang affiliations were brought up and floated. In any event, Ocean View HS had this huge gathering in the gym several days after his death and folks showered praised upon the deceased. (I didn’t have any substantial dealings with him, but vaguely recall he was a “nice guy.” He played on the basketball team and was fairly popular with the student body. In the aftermath, they retired his basketball jersey, which I hear still hangs in the rafters. Reading the bit about him being involved in home invasion robberies etc. is disturbing, and I suppose the lifestyle caught up to him.
