This is part reference book, part recipe book delivered in Madison's easygoing style. Her recipes are very clean, and she approaches vegetables by family. This is an unusual organization strategy, but it teaches you how to treat entire families of vegetables rather than going at each one in a disjointed way.

Maybe you have total restraint at the Farmer’s Market. If instead you’re like me and tend to pick up 4 pounds of beautiful eggplant without a plan, this is your book. Deborah Madison groups vegetables botanically and provides recipes, techniques, and guidelines.
