Perhaps her latest book, Vegetables ($39.50) will inspire young cooks and pop-culture junkies to head into the kitchen to make one of the 150 recipes covered in the book. The book: The just-released Vegetables cookbook is a guide on how to work with different types of tubers, leafy greens, roots, flowers and bulbs that inhabit your garden (in my case, my supermarket aisle). So while the most of the recipes are vegetarian, this isn’t one of those raw, vegan, gluten free books. Experienced home cooks won’t find this book particularly challenging as many recipes are essentially easy salads, sautés, braises and roast vegetables. Still, it’s a good resource for the beginner home cook looking to incorporate a variety of vegetables into their everyday meals without veering into the diet cookbook route.
