Israeli Couscous Salad with Preserved Lemons, Sugar Snap Peas, and Feta
Chef M.J. Adams of the Corn Exchange restaurant in South Dakota serves this refreshing dish garnished with a dollop of softened, house-made harissa butter.

Farro and Pecorino Salad
Farro is an ancient, unhybridized type of wheat believed to have potent antioxidant qualities.

Foraged Greens with Young Pecorino Sardo
When Jonathon Sawyer, the 30-year-old chef/owner of downtown Cleveland’s Greenhouse Tavern, admits, “I tend to be a bit obsessive,” it’s hard to suppress a smile.
