Chef Anya Fernald has long been interested not just in great food, but where it comes from and how it's grown and raised. After working in the food industry in Europe, Fernald returned to her native California and co-founded Belcampo Meat Co. The company farms more than 50,000 acres of organic land where animals are pasture-fed and humanely raised. Their meat supplies butcher shops and restaurants across California, along with a brand new Belcampo location that recently opened in New York.

Fernald joined "CBS This Morning Saturday" to share a few of her signature recipes.

Pickled beets & eggs

Ingredients:

5 medium red or golden beets

2 cups apple cider vinegar

2 cups water

¼ cup sugar

2 tbsp kosher salt

6 hard boiled eggs (optional)

Method:

Put the beets in a medium saucepan and add water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat and boil until the beets are tender but not mushy, 30-40 minutes. Drain, rinse with cool water, peel, and cut into 1" cubes. Add the vinegar, water, sugar, and salt to the now-empty saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar and salt. Remove from the heat. Put the beets in a heatproof jar with a lid and pour the brine over. Peel the hard-boiled eggs and add them to the brine along with the beets. Let cool, then cover and transfer to the refrigerator.

The beets are ready in a day but will keep for up to 6 weeks; the eggs should be eaten within a day or two.

Peach tart

Ingredients:

For the crust

½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

1 ¼ cups pastry flour

½ cup sugar

½ tsp vanilla extract

½ tsp almond extract

¼ tsp salt

For the filling

1 cup crème fraiche

1 egg

2 tbsp sugar or mild honey

¼ tsp vanilla extract

6 small ripe peaches, pitted and quartered - skins on

2 tbsp sugar

Methods:

Preheat the oven to 350°F. For the crust: In a medium bowl combine the melted butter, flour, sugar, vanilla, almond extract, and salt. Mix with a spoon until it comes together into a crumbly dough. Loosely press the dough into a 9-inch removable-bottom tart pan. Don't worry about making it perfect; it will meld together as it bakes. Transfer to the oven and bake until light golden brown, 10 minutes. For the filling: In a bowl, whisk together the crème fraiche, egg, sugar, vanilla, and almond extract. Pour the mixture into the parbaked crust. Spread the halved peaches evenly over the tart, mixing skins up and skins down. Sprinkle with reserved sugar. Return the pan to the oven, reduce heat to 325°F and bake until the custard puffs and is golden brown and the jam is beginning to caramelize, about 45 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let cool for one hour before slicing and serving.
