I just got off the phone with Sara Foster, one of my favorite cookbook authors. If you like Ina Garten, you'll like Sara. (She used to work for Martha Stewart, but don't hold that against her.) Now, Sara owns the Foster's Markets in Chapel Hill and Durham, N.C.My copy of her first cookbook "Foster's Market Cookbook" is covered with stains because I use it so often. Her corn pudding is a staple, especially in the summer; the pork tenderloin with dried cherries will delight any dinner guest, and her peanut butter cookies are darn near the best peanut butter cookies I have ever had. These cookies are so easy and turn out perfect every time. (Sometimes, I add a cup of chocolate chips to batter and it's like a Reese's peanut butter cup.) Yum. Yum.
Foster's new cookbook "Sara Foster's Casual Cooking" (Clarkson Potter, $35) is another winner. The photos alone are pure food porn.
Look for a story on Sept. 12. I'll include recipes, including one for those peanut butter cookies.
