Eating fresh vegetables—whether purchased at a supermarket, farmer’s market, or organic food store—is both a health commandment and a gourmet pleasure. Knack Vegetable Cooking brings together the 350 best recipes out there. For each vegetable, the book offers a range of recipe types, some including meat—from delicious, simple recipes any cook will want to add to his or her everyday culinary repertoire, to recipes for making the most of a big harvest or a good seasonal price, ethnic and regional recipes, and recipes suited to dinner parties or holiday celebrations.
