Two things make this an exceptional resource: the seasonal sequence assists with aligning your plans to availability and price, and secondly the unique flavors create outstanding, star dishes. I would build whole meal plans around the vegetable dishes described in this work. my favorite recipe so far has been the caramelized cauliflower with honey and smoked paprika, though I also enjoyed the roasted acorn squash with chipotle and cilantro. I look forward to revisiting this book throughout the year to try all the seasonal recipes.

A lot of yummy looking recipes that I hope to use with the vegetables I hope to grown in my garden this year--here's hoping to a sunnier and warmer summer.

ok. not overly exciting or inspiring. Granted, it is about vegetables. Was written by one of my cooking instructors in SF who was/is amazing....still....probably not worth buying.
