Where is HttpContent.ReadAsAsync?

It looks like it is an extension method (in System.Net.Http.Formatting):

HttpContentExtensions Class

Update:

PM> install-package Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Client

According to the System.Net.Http.Formatting NuGet package page, the System.Net.Http.Formatting package is now legacy and can instead be found in the Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Client package available on NuGet here.

I have the same problem, so I simply get JSON string and deserialize to my class:

HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync("Products");
//get data as Json string 
string data = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
//use JavaScriptSerializer from System.Web.Script.Serialization
JavaScriptSerializer JSserializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
//deserialize to your class
products = JSserializer.Deserialize<List<Product>>(data);

If you are already using Newtonsoft.Json and don't want to install Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Client:

 var myInstance = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MyClass>(
   await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync());
