If we're going to do dairy, we want to go for the good stuff! And that doesn't mean the sugariest ice cream in the grocery store: that means choosing responsibly-farmed dairy that's done right from farm to table. Monique Otero from Brunchpants gives us the scoop on a NYC farm setting the bar high for the dairy industry - and shares a recipe for garlic butter tomato toast that will rock your world... Dairy is an ingredient I love to indulge in, but when I do, I always source from dairy farms with responsible farming practices. Ronnybrook, in New York’s Hudson Valley, is one of those farms. This farm goes above and beyond traditional organic farming methods, never using any pesticides or RBST and making sure their cows get daily access to outdoor exercise. Ronnybrook treats their cows like family and they even have comfort cow stalls with individual mattresses. All of their milk is tested daily to insure that their products meet the highest quality standards. One of my favorite summertime recipes is roasted garlic tomato toast using Ronnybrook's European-style unsalted butter
(Read about our buttered coffee obsession here.) This is my butter of choice because it is fresh churned in small batches and has a higher butterfat content than traditional butters. I usually double this roasted garlic butter recipe and freeze half so it is ready to go for unexpected summer picnics. You can find Ronnybrook at
farmers markets all over New York City. They are at the Union Square Farmers Market on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
