What are people saying about TENDER?

TENDER is a tribute to the relationship forged between a farmer and a chef and the resulting magic of a great meal.  All farms should have a Tamara Murphy as a friend.”

                     -  Mas Masumoto, organic peach farmer and author
                        
Epitaph for a Peach and Wisdom of the Last Farmer 

“Tamara has just given the world the ultimate chef’s cookbook.  This is how we eat, think, and love if we care about our world, our ingredients, and what we take to the table and give to our families, ourselves, and our friends.  This book feels like home. A must-have book in any foodie’s library!”  

                      -  Holly Smith, chef/owner
                         Café Juanita and Poco Carretto Gelato
 

“Tamara Murphy has been my hero for a long time.  I’m so glad to see her passion, sensibilities, energy, vision, and sense of community bundled so compellingly in this book.  Many of the photos show Tamara’s hands in or near the soil, and that is what she is all about.  This high priestess of farm-to-table cooking shows us that a simple, honest, know-and-be-true-to-your-ingredients-and-the-seasons meal is ultimately the most satisfying.”
