It presents an entirely new way of looking at vegetables, drawing on Madison's deep knowledge of cooking, gardening, and botany. For example, knowing that dill, chervil, cumin, parsley, coriander, anise, lovage, and caraway come from the umbellifer family makes it clear why they're such good matches for carrots, also a member of that family. With more than 300 classic and exquisitely simple recipes, Madison brings this wealth of information together in dishes that highlight a world of complementary flavors. Griddled Artichokes with Tarragon Mayonnaise, Tomato Soup and Cilantro with Black Quinoa, Tuscan Kale Salad with Slivered Brussels Sprouts and Sesame Dressing, Kohlrabi Slaw with Frizzy Mustard Greens, and Fresh Peas with Sage on Baked Ricotta showcase combinations that are simultaneously familiar and revelatory. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInspiring improvisation in the kitchen and curiosity in the garden, \u003ci\u003eVegetable Literacy\u003c\/i\u003e--an unparalleled look at culinary vegetables and plants--will forever change the way we eat and cook.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Deborah Madison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1607741911\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781607741916\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ten Speed Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/12\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.25h x 9.30w x 1.25d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Books for a Better Life - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e James Beard Foundation Book Awards - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e IACP Crystal Whisk Award - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Books for a Better Life - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/18\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2013 pg. 124\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2013 pg. 38\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/02\/2013 pg. 16","brand":"Deborah Madison","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44049565090047,"sku":"9781607741916","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d85f67e0-5d02-415e-9daa-b79e2c7c987d.jpg?v=1685002237","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/vegetable-literacy-deborah-madison-9781607741916","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
