ANY TIME, ANY WAY

Winter? What winter? For those fortunate enough to have â&#x20AC;&#x153;winteredâ&#x20AC;? on Nantucket this year, you would have witnessed swimmers at Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Beach in March, daffodils springing up six weeks early, and seals basking in the February sun. From all early appearances this could be a hot summerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; economically as well, with rental bookings, real estate sales and event planning well ahead of last year. This all coincides wonderfully with N Magazineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own celebration in July, our 10th anniversary!

In this issue, we once again toast our partnership with the Nantucket Wine Festival featuring Luminary of the Year, Laurent Drouhin. A long time attendee of the Festival, Drouhin is the fourth generation of one of Burgundyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most respected wine families, making him true wine royalty. We felt there was no better way to celebrate the wines of Drouhin than by making their grapes the star of our cover.

For the non-oenophiles among us, we invite you to meet Bill Paley, arguably â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Most Interesting Man on Nantucket.â&#x20AC;? Beyond his uncanny resemblance to the Dos Equis beer spokesman, Paley has lived a life worthy of the title. Segueing to the silver screen, N previews a film on the island, by the island, for the island entitled Nantucket 24: One Day on Island Time. The movie is made up of footage taken by seventy Nantucketers during the course of one day and will premiere at the soon-to-be-open Dreamland Theater. In an effort to bring our readers the most thoughtful content possible, we will be featuring special contributors throughout the season. In this issue we share the expertise of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Doctor to the Starsâ&#x20AC;? Mark Hyman, MD; renowned wine writers, Anthony Hanson and David Rosengarten; and famed National Public Radio motor mouth, Ray Magliozzi of the NPR syndicated program, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Car Talk.â&#x20AC;? Cheers to the beginning of a warm and wonderful season!

When Cru Restaurant needed to totally gut their new space for a Spring opening, they called in Blue Star Construction. From dirt-floor demo to custom-millwork finish, Blue Star rolled up its sleeves and got the job done with Marine Home Center at their side. Getting supplies when they need them, where they need them, enables Jay Hanley, owner of Blue Star, to perform his job. As one of the islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s busiest contractors with over 80 projects under his belt, Hanley plans his jobs with military precision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Given that we are 30 miles out to sea, only Marine can meet our deadlines. They cover our backs.â&#x20AC;? Whether you are a major contractor or do-it-yourselfer, when the job gets tough, Marine Home Center is there to serve all your home improvement needs.

hen it comes to the Daffodil Classic Car Competition, there is truly only one event that drives participants to the brink: The Tailgate Picnic. A cross between NASCAR and the Westminster Dog Show, the ‘Sconset picnic challenges Daffy-goers to fuse food, costume, music, showmanship and gleaming chrome to take the title of top tailgate. Past years have seen such champions as the 1971 Land Rover “Good Bye America,” the “Pirates Party,” and most recently the 1957 Chevy “50s Diner.” The event is not simply about Model As, but Type As, who often plan up to a year in advance in hopes of besting their opponents. Ask anyone who has rolled away with a ribbon, and they’re sure to tell you that winning the picnic ain’t no picnic. “In the beginning, it was very much about the food,” says Eileen O’Connell, winner of more than five ribbons over the past thirty years. “It was about a beautifully set table or tailgate. The people would move away and the judges would taste.” Today the judges rarely try the food, although Judge Patty Rottmeiere says, “Some contestants try to bribe judges with the food and drink.” Brownie bribes aside, the judging is about the pageantry, the details, and the execution of

Otherwise they’ll walk by and you’re probably not going to win a prize.”

EVERY SATURDAY MORNING, two thick Boston accents stream over 500 radio stations in the United States and countless webcasts worldwide. Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers, have won throngs of faithful listeners over the years with their program “Car Talk,” an hour-long laugh-fest centered around car maintenance and two endearing personalities. Just in time for the Daffy Car Parade, Ray Magliozzi, one half of this motor mouth duo, met up with N Magazine outside his studios in Harvard Square — the legendary law offices of Dewey, Cheatem, & Howe — to discuss the obsession surrounding old classics and to warn us once again, “Don’t drive like my brotha!”

isease is not a normal consequence of aging.

Nagging symptoms, often heavily medicated,

are not inevitable. They are the result of

something very simple: Not following the basic

laws of biology. Your body is a system, an ecosystem where everything is connected. When that system is out of balance, disease arises. And there are only a few ways the body becomes out of balance: Too much of the bad stuff (poor diet, stress, microbes, toxins and allergens), and not enough of the good stuff (whole, real fresh food, nutrients, movement, water, air, light, rest, sleep, rhythm, love, connection, meaning and purpose). These are the ingredients for a healthy human. After practicing medicine for over 25 years, I am still startled to find how most of my patients do not connect what they eat with how they feel, thinking that disease is something that happens randomly, a thing that they get. Recent discoveries in the field of genomics, epigenetics and nutrigenomics provide a new paradigm for understanding how to treat

“What you put on the end of your fork is more powerful than anything you will ever find at the bottom of a pill bottle.”

disease. It is quite simple. Disease goes away as a side effect of getting healthy. You don’t have to treat the symptoms. Simply treat the cause and the symptoms vanish. Treat the system. This past year, in partnership with Rick Warren of Saddleback Church and doctors Oz and Amen, we created a simple experiment: Teach people how to create health and watch disease go away. The 30,000 member church not only lost 250,000 pounds, but vanquished diseases – diabetes, high blood pressure, depression, allergies, asthma, irritable bowel, reflux, migraines, acne, low sex drive, fatigue and more. The biggest lever to create biologic change is not a new wonder drug or new robotic surgical procedure, but food. The right food turns on the right genes, and creates biological signals that create health, while the wrong foods turn on genes that cause disease and create biological chaos. The average American eats 29 pounds of french fries, 23 pounds of pizza, 24 pounds of ice cream and consumes 53 gallons of soda, 24 pounds of artificial sweeteners, 2.736 pounds of salt and 90,700 mg of caffeine per year. Do we really think we can create health in that toxic environment? Conversely, we underestimate the power of real, whole, fresh food to transform our biology, not in months or years, but in days or weeks. What you put on the end of your fork is more powerful than anything you will ever find at the bottom of a pill bottle. Dr. Dean Ornish has proven that eating a whole-foods, plant-based diet beneficially affects over 500 genes, turning off the cancer-causing genes and turning on the cancer-fighting genes. Even more startling is research

who found that you could reverse the inevitable shortening of your chromosomes that accompanies aging simply by eating a whole-foods, plant-based diet. Telomeres are the little end caps on your chromosomes. They get shorter as you age. Eating real food lengthens them. There is no drug or any intervention other than food that has ever been shown to stop their inexorable shortening, shortening your life in the process.

f there was something to film from 5AM October 8th to 5AM October 9th on Nantucket, it was filmed. Cameras ruggedly designed for extreme sports were mounted to surfboards, catamarans and mountain bikes.

Others documented impromptu interviews at the Farmer’s Market, youth football games, and the Cranberry Festival. Cameras caught music performances at Cisco Brewery, the Chicken Box and the Muse. Then there were the nature shots: the Serengeti, the Moors, beaches from Madaket to ‘Sconset, once again captured in motion pictures. Filmmakers got behind the bars of restaurants, behind the lines in kitchens, and behind the scenes of a slew of island events. The 70 people behind the cameras ranged from seasoned professionals like Dan Driscoll, Scott Capizzo and Lisa Frey to first-time filmmakers like Angela Raynor, Brian Leonard, and 7-year-old Bella Quinn.

24’s trailer went viral within days of its online release, receiving well over 3,000 hits in just a few weeks. Comments flooded the Web, praising the two-and-a-half minute clip as a moving tribute to the Nantucket community, or as one viewer commented: “It’s a wonderful island tapestry.” Of course, making a mini montage is quite different than editing together an entire film. Kit and his editor, Christo Tsiaras of Nantucket by Nature, faced the bewildering task of bringing cohesion to a hodgepodge of footage, essentially putting a film together with scraps on the cutting room floor. They trudged through hours upon hours of clips, some shot with smooth professional precision, others as shaky as a scene from COPS. “The interviews really became the glue binding the film,” says Kit. “Some of the exchanges are very insightful, while others hilariously entertaining.” Indeed, the film’s off-the-cuff interviews give 24 a voice that spans generations, professions and island tenure, all bound by a shared love for the

In fact, the Drouhins are founding members of the Primum Familiae Vini—“The First Families in Wine”— an international wine alliance made up exclusively of 11 renowned producers. When it comes to Burgundian wines, the Drouhins are regarded in the company of such greats as Maison Louis Latour and Domaine Louis Jadot. The Drouhin’s illustrious reputation is manifested in over 130 years in business, in over 182-acres of largely Premier

Along with their commitment to the centuries old terroir of Burgundy, the Drouhins literally broke ground in American wine country in 1988 with a 104-acre vineyard in the Willamette Valley known as Domaine Drouhin Oregon. The move was significant to both the Drouhins and the US wine scene at large, as it gave some credibility to America’s emerging Pinot Noir producers. The estate, which sits on nearly the same latitude as their vineyards in Burgundy, also offers the Drouhins a satellite in the US, their number-one market.

ISLAND CREEK OYSTERS OVER BRAISED LEEKS

WITH A TRUFFLE MOUSSELINE GLACAGE

Pairing

s a former sommelier at the Chanticleer, Denis Toner spent each evening soothing diners’ anxiety over confronting a wine list of 1,700 bottles and then choosing

the best wine for their meal. “It was during this period that I met the anointed one, David Rosengarten,” Toner says. “At that time, David had just published Red Wine with Fish, which became (and remains) the go-to guide for sorting out the complexities of food and wine pairing.” Most recently, Toner and Rosengarten joined forces to offer wine pairings for the plates of three of Nantucket’s finest chefs. Here’s all you’ll need to cook them up at home, pair them yourself and enjoy!

BRAISED LEEK CONFIT 3 leeks, pale color and light green only (save dark greens for later use) 3/4 tbsp. butter 1/4 cup champagne or white wine Salt & pepper, to taste Cut leeks into 1.5 inch julienne or thin cut cross moons for 3 cups total yield, using mostly white and pale green parts of leek. Melt butter in medium hot pan and add leeks, wine and season with salt. Do not allow to brown. Gently simmer on low heat with a lid on for 15 minutes until leeks are cooked through and tender. Season with pepper. This can be done the day before. TRUFFLE CREAM MIX 1½ cup heavy cream 3 egg yolks 1½ tbsp. champagne or white wine 1½ tbsp. truffle oil Salt & pepper, to taste Whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. In separate bowl, mix the egg yolks with the wine, truffle oil, salt and pepper until well combined. This is to be made just before serving. OYSTERS 18 oysters, scrubbed and chilled.

ROSENGARTEN: Of course the temptation is to go with the soul mate of oysters, Chablis. But the rich and creamy touches in the dish make me feel that the Chablis pairing had better be dead-on. A higher-odds bet for me is my go-to kind of wine for seafood and cream situations: oldfashioned white Rioja. Any of the current-release blancos from Lopez de Heredia (which should be roughly ten years old) will fit nicely.

TONER: I felt that a grand cru Chablis would be the ideal choice with Chef Raynor’s oyster dish, and would recommend the grand cru Les Clos 2009 from Jean-Paul and Benoit Droin. The richness of Seth’s dish almost supersedes the brininess of the oysters, and I think that it needs a wine with a bit more weight and concentration to stand up to the amount of animal fat in the dish. N magazine

Shuck and remove oyster from shell, saving bottom shell for cooking vessel. Gently rewarm leek mixture and check seasoning. Spread 1 tbsp. of leek mixture in bottom of shell (not mounded up). Place 1 oyster on top of leeks. Place 1 heaping tbsp. of truffle cream mix on top of oyster. Place under broiler (6”-10” away from heat source) and gently cook. The cream will melt and slowly brown up nicely. Remove and serve while hot.

2010 Gelber Muskateller from Nicolaihof in the Austria’s Wachau Valley.

TONER: My vote would be either a Riesling or a Pinot Gris from Alsace. I would particularly favor a 2010 Pinot Gris Reserve from the Alsace wine house of Trimbach. Foie gras is a staple of Alsatian cuisine and the wines from that region seem to have been bred to match the unctuous richness of foie gras. If one wanted a red wine, I would suggest a Chinon, which is made of Cabernet Franc grapes from the Loire Valley. The light, buoyant reds of this region would lighten the weight of Chef LaScola’s dish. I would recommend 2010 Benard Baudry Chinon Les Granges.

Separate the white bulbs from the green leaves, and roughly chop each. Preheat a skillet over medium heat, lightly coat the bottom with olive oil and add the ramp whites and red bell pepper. Season with the cumin, crushed red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, for about 6 minutes, or until the peppers become tender. Add the ramp greens and cook an additional 2 minutes. Place the cooked vegetables in a large mixing bowl and, using a firm whisk, smash the vegetables until coarsely crushed. Add the chickpeas, season with salt and pepper, and continue to smash with the whisk until no whole chickpeas remain. Fold in the parsley, egg and breadcrumbs and check for seasoning. Using a ¼ cup, measure out the chickpea mix and roll into balls, refrigerate for ½ hour or overnight. There should be 8 cakes.

Strain and run under cold water, keep cool until ready to use. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the English peas (if using frozen just thaw and use) and simmer until tender, 4-5 minutes. Use a small strainer to scoop out the peas and run under cold water. Add the asparagus to the same boiling water, and cook until tender, 2-3 minutes, strain and run under cold water.

AVIATION

Whether enjoying Sunday morning doughnuts at the counter of the Downyflake, or partaking in lobster and crab cakes at Topperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Nantucketers have long reveled in the honest pleasure of shared food and friendly company. Yet for most of the thousands of young men who sailed from Nantucket during the heyday of the whaling industry, mealtimes were not occasions to be enjoyed or anticipated. Instead of bringing the men together for a moment of kinship and a glimmer of regularity in a world so foreign, meals fractured the already tense relationships among the crew.

eading almost like a Weight Watchers meal plan from 150 years ago, a log book from the Three Brothers during a voyage from 1851 to 1854 details the

honest truth of the crew’s diet: the food was uninspired, repetitive, and barely nutritious. The crew had “salt meat or codfish hash” for breakfast every day, and for dinner “duff [boiled or steamed pudding] & junk [salt beef].” Sugar and butter were reserved for the captain and officers; the crew denied even those small luxuries. The food seemed at best monotonously dull; nevertheless, the log keeper writes: “Take it upon the whole with a mean steward and a nasty dirty filthy cook we

managed to get enough to eat.” In addition to the horrible fare, the manner in which the men of the fo’c’sle took meals was often uncomfortable and humiliating. While the captain and officers dined at a table set with plates and silverware, the crew was forced to vie for a portion from a communal pot, often set out on the deck, using utensils the men had brought from home or purchased at exorbitant prices from the ship’s stores. One crew was not even allowed the time to enjoy (more likely gag down) their measly meal. The second mate of the Globe, on the voyage of 1820–22, perhaps drunk on the minimal authority he wielded over the crew, interrupted their meals and demanded their immediate return to work. And then there were the bugs—bugs of all kinds. Cockroaches roamed the fo’c’sle.

crews were, on occasion, treated to delicious offerings. On holidays such as Christmas and the Fourth of July, the men were often given a reprieve from their monotonous diet. For Christmas and New Year’s in 1855, the entire crew of the ship Harvest enjoyed the fresh meat of seven turkeys, a welcome change from salted junk. The crews also sometimes marked milestones with special treats. They celebrated the accumulation of a thousand barrels of oil by frying donuts in it, thereby enjoying the spoils of their hard work. The rarely obtainable fresh meat and sweet treats, however, could not make up for the generally horrible meals. Whaling crews knew that their lives at sea would be difficult and that the captain and officers would always be treated differently. The log keeper of the Chelsea perhaps put it best when he wrote, “one becomes philosophical at sea in matters of food.” In the decided voice of one whaling philosopher, Moses Morrell of the Hero: “Alas, Alas the day that I came awhaling, and for what profit a man if he gain the whole world and in the meantime starve to death.” Today as ferries approach the island, passengers look forward to the culinary delights that await them.

returning from a long voyage caught a glimpse of Nantucket in the distance, a similar anticipation of good food and good company was palpable and certainly never more greatly deserved.
