The current climate of fresh garden-based cooking is truly wonderful. I cannot even imagine ordering a meal nowadays unless the dining establishment can convince me the veggies are fresh. Even our local diner now has its own raised garden. After all, expecting me to eat cornbread in January is but monstrous. The horror.
As any cook knows, preparing foods that are not seasonal is simply missing the point. The smell and the touch are everything to good food, and it also means a healthier meal for the family. This book does an excellent job of presenting Spring favorites, whether it's Scallion & Buttermilk Pancakes, Beignets with Chives & Green Salad, or Beet & Cucumber Salad. Oh yeah.
There is also an appendix in the back showing the time to plant vegetables, so you will have them ready come spring.
