I bought this book on a friend's recommendation after I joined a CSA and was confronted with a bunch of unfamiliar veggies I had no idea what to do with and a never-ending supply of familiar veggies I wanted to cook in new ways. This alphabetical companion to the vegetable world helped on both accounts. Each vegetable is given an introduction with a description, tips on prep and storage, and some (often rather pointed) opinions from the author. Following the intro, we get a set of well-written recipes incorporating the vegetable in question. The ones I've made so far have been approachable and tasty and the tips on storage and prep have come in very handy. More illustrations may help with conveying information on identification and slicing techniques, but may interfere with the charm of this homey volume. ( ) If you love to cook and eat, vegetables, this is the book for you. This book does an excellent job of teaching the basics of vegetables, including selecting, cleaning, storing, and preparing. The best way to prepare vegetables is presented, and the recipes are designed to teach the reader how to cook vegetables without having to rely on the book while in the kitchen. I’ve actually taught people how to roast asparagus spears with olive oil and kosher salt based on what I’ve learned in this book. The book will also confront some misconceptions about particular vegetables – cucumbers can be cooked! As noted by another reviewer on Library Thing, the vegetables are side dishes, not the centerpiece. But any user will find that the vegetables, well cooked and seasoned, can make a good meal great. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
The fresh vegetable sections in most supermarkets, farmers' markets, and gourmet groceries are overflowing with an amazing range of produce, both familiar and exotic. Consumers are tempted by kale and kohlrabi, taro and tomatillos, bok choy and burdock, along with all the familiar choices. Now acclaimed cookbook author and food writer Jack Bishop offers a comprehensive A-to-Z guide to this bounty of produce, complete with selection tips, preparation instructions, and hundreds of recipes for more than sixty-six commonly available vegetables. With Bishop's expert advice, you'll learn how to coax the very best flavor from every vegetable, whether it's a carrot, cauliflower, or cardoon. Wondering how and when to buy the sweetest green beans? Bishop suggests buying at the height of summer, and selecting beans that are crisp and slim (older, thicker beans will be mealy and bland). Confused about how to cook the spring's first sorrel? Bishop offers such unique and delicious dishes as Sorrel and Potato Soup and Sorrel Frittata. These recipes -- like all 350 in the book -- are clear and uncomplicated, ensuring success for even the novice cook. So whether you are looking for a salad or side dish, a vibrant main course, or simply great mashed potatoes, you are sure to find it in this essential kitchen companion. We all know that vegetables are the key to healthful eating -- now it's time to discover how great they can taste, each and every day! Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
