Industry Reviews "In reading [James Peterson's] new VEGETABLES, a subject close to my heart, I kept nodding in agreement and thinking, 'Right--that's just what I always thought.' No wonder I want to read every word of this typically long, comprehensive book." Atlantic Unbound - Corby Kummer (07/09/1998)
"[A] treasure, and...refreshingly different from the masses of vegetable cookbooks on bookstore shelves. Many of the recipes are simple--sometimes too simple for an experienced cook--and familiar, but they are meticulously formulated and carefully written....[H]e easily compensates for [a few] flaws with mounds of useful information. There are easy-to-read charts for boiling, steaming and grilling, broken down by individual vegetable, as well as a chart revealing vegetable yields after cooking. A thorough list of sources is provided for unusual ingredients....The style of the recipes is at once current and traditional....[T]he recipes work quite well, adding strength to an already solidly researched and well-executed cookbook." New York Times - Amanda Hesser (07/08/1998)
