The Produce Bible: Essential Ingredient Information and More Than 200 Recipes for Fruits, Vegetables, Herbs & Nuts Review

The Produce Bible: Essential Ingredient Information and More Than 200 Recipes for Fruits, Vegetables, Herbs and Nuts

The book delivers well on information for produce, but I didn't really find any information in this book that I can't find for free online. Also, the layout wasn't very helpful, as it doesn't provide a page in the table of contents for each fruit or vegetable. I tried two of the recipes in here, the lemon cake and orange biscotti, and neither came out very well. The flavors seemed off and the cake came out very dense. I think it was more of a coffee cake than the fluffy kind I was looking for. I ended up returning it, because it didn't seem worth the price. However, it is really pretty layout and the pictures are well done.

Anyone who has shopped in a farmer's market knows the abundant glories of seasonal produce, from the deep, fruity notes of a sun-ripened tomato to the crisp, green snap of a just-harvested bean; from the intoxicating perfection of a ripe strawberry to the juicy sweetness of a hand-picked peach. Like a trip to the market, The Produce Bible brings together the best of nature's bounty, offering delicious recipes and essential ingredient information for more than 100 varieties of fruits, vegetables, herbs, and nuts. Celebrating the explosion of interest in locally grown and hand-picked produce, this comprehensive volume features 200 recipes that bring out the special qualities of each ingredient, from tender spring peas to earthy autumnal tubers. In addition, the book is filled with practical advice on how to choose, store, and prepare fresh produce, as well as basic cooking techniques, nutritional information, and suggestions for companion foods. If you want to know the best type of potato for roasting or mashing; the perfect uses for a meyer lemon; or the ideal way to eat an artichoke, then look no further. Bursting with luscious color photographs, The Produce Bible is an invaluable resource for gardeners, cooks, and food lovers alike.

The Tropical Vegan Kitchen: Meat-Free, Egg-Free, Dairy-Free Dishes from the Tropics Review

The Tropical Vegan Kitchen: Meat-Free, Egg-Free, Dairy-Free Dishes from the Tropics

I love this book, as well as Donna Klein's other books, "Vegan Italiano" and "The Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen." My son is allergic to dairy, soy, eggs, and beef, and we try not to eat too much meat, so these books have been great! "The Tropical Vegan Kitchen" does have some recipes with soy in them because it includes the tropical regions of Asia, but there are also plenty of soy-free recipes as well. So many vegan cookbooks just tell you how to use soy to pretend you are eating meat. Klein's books have real recipes that are healthy, tasty, easy to make and use ingredients you already have if you frequent the produce section or farmer's market.
