Quotes by Tracy Pollan  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I would follow my mother around the kitchen watching and trying to find any way to help. One of the first dishes my mother taught me to make was hollandaise sauce. Though she always served it with broccoli, I soon realized it was equally delicious with asparagus, artichokes, or any other vegetable.”
― Tracy Pollan, The Pollan Family Table: The Best Recipes and Kitchen Wisdom for Delicious, Healthy Family Meals

“Return the soup to the heat and stir in the heavy cream, if using. Add the vinegar and 1 to 2 teaspoons salt (as desired) and pepper to taste. Ladle the soup into four to six individual bowls, top each with about 1 teaspoon of the toasted pumpkin seeds, and serve hot.”
― Tracy Pollan, Mostly Plants: 101 Delicious Flexitarian Recipes from the Pollan Family

“6. Arrange six ovenproof soup bowls on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the grated cheese on the bottom of each. Fill each bowl three-quarters full with soup. Top with the toasted baguette slices and cover the toast and the soup with about 4 tablespoons of grated cheese per bowl. Place the baking sheet under the broiler and broil until the cheese is bubbling, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve hot.”
