I fell in love with my husband in the spring, and three years later we were married in the lush garden behind my sisters house in the Los Angeles hills. Spring is special to me. When we were growing up in snowy Minnesota, the return of green grass was like waking from a long white haze. The shedding of winter coats meant that the thaw had arrived. Bye-bye snow boots and baked squash. But even in a mild climate without melting snow, spring announces itself.

The air smells of fresh lilacs and freesia, and beginning the last week of March, the roses in my front yard remind me that the first local asparagus, rhubarb, and globe artichokes are on their way. There is something liberating about the season. People move from inside their houses to the patio, thoughts shift away from introspection. In The Fresh 20 kitchen, spring is less about the dry heat of the oven and more about moist-heat cooking methods. Steaming is springs savior. I trade in my heavy-duty Dutch oven for my sturdy 12-inch saut pan and the promise of perfectly browned vegetables.

Fish has a big place on our spring table. In this chapter, I share recipes for balsamic-poached salmon, orange jalapeo shrimp, and coconut curry-style fish fillets. In April, we always look forward to a lamb dinnerI love using ground lamb at this time of year because it is easier to cook with during the week than a whole roast. We turn away from winter roasts and look to the skillet, where we find Korean-style short ribs, sauted chicken, quick-baked Parmesan chicken nuggets, and grilled pork chops. For me, spring is a soft suggestion to lighten up and reactivate. If summer is family time, autumn is back to school, and winter is introspection, spring is community and reconnection.

The famers markets reopen. The light is back, days begin to lengthen, and hearts thaw.
