Six Seasons: A New Way with Vegetables by Joshua McFadden

5.0

Vegetables, with a little meat or preserved fish for seasoning thrown in here and there, are the star of this show. My son shakes his head when he sees me reading a cookbook like a ‘real book’, but the stories behind the recipes are what make a book compelling. Why this cookbook and not another? In this case, the author’s back story as a chef turned farmer brings a special dimension to the dishes. There are a few variations on dishes that I already cook which made me wonder why I’d never tried doing it his way. Everything I tried was fantastic. After borrowing it from the library, I’m compelled to buy a copy.
