"Delicious Ideas for Bringing Vegetables into Every Meal"

Aired on Wednesday, July 18th.

Summertime, for food-lovers and capable chefs both near and far, is Vegetable Time. There are, of course, so many tasty veggies --- freshly picked, readily available, and in season --- at one's local market...wherever that market is located. On this edition of ST, therefore, we speak by phone with Susie Middleton, a chef, food writer, and gardener who lives and works on Martha's Vineyard, where she maintains a small farm. (She's also the editor-at-large for Fine Cooking magazine.) Middleton has a new book out called "The Fresh & Green Table: Delicious Ideas for Bringing Vegetables into Every Meal." It's a volume that, as she tells us on today's show, aims to move vegetable dishes from the side of the plate to the main course of a given meal. "The Fresh & Green Table" offers strategies, techniques, and more than 70 recipes for cooking vegetables in this and every other season --- from tasty soups and crispy salads to terrific grilled pizzas and tarts loaded with green goodness.

Rich Fisher passed through KWGS about thirty years ago, and just never left. Today, he is the general manager of Public Radio Tulsa, and the host of KWGS’s public affairs program, StudioTulsa, which celebrated its twentieth anniversary in August 2012 . As host of StudioTulsa, Rich has conducted roughly four thousand long-form interviews with local, national, and international figures in the arts, humanities, sciences, and government. Very few interviews have gone smoothly. Despite this, he has been honored for his work by several organizations including the Governor's Arts Award for Media by the State Arts Council, a Harwelden Award from the Arts & Humanities Council of Tulsa, and was named one of the “99 Great Things About Oklahoma” in 2000 by Oklahoma Today magazine.
