Simply
in Season
"Simply in Season" is a cookbook that takes on the
problems of modern food production through seasonal
eating. This handy, spiral bound guide is color coded
by season and offers recipes made from foods typically
offered by small local farmers during each season.
With simple recipes and whole ingredients, this compilation
from over 450 cooks and tasters from around the world
brings you the basics of seasonal eating, with recipes
ranging from the familiar to the unexpected - Fresh
Pea Soup to Nova Scotia Hodgepodge.
 Within
the green pages of spring or the gold pages of autumn,
you'll find a list of all the fruits and vegetables
the season has to offer on the side margins, with the
ingredients of any particular recipe in bold. This makes
it easy to thumb through and find recipes for specific
foods while keeping in mind what else is in season.
Another convenient feature of "Simply in Season" is
the fruit and vegetable profiles found at the beginning
of the book, complete with picture, season, description,
storage and preparation tips and nutrition information.
Not knowing what to do with a seasonal vegetable can
often be a stumbling block for first time seasonal eaters.
With photos and cooking suggestions, the mysterious
kohlrabi will never elude you again!
A great introduction to seasonal eating, "Simply in
Season" provides the basics for changing the modern
food system, one vegetable at a time. The recipes are
healthy classics with straightforward directions, without
the "health-nut" complexities and unusual ingredients
found in many diet-changing cook books.
You can also visit the "Simply
in Season" Online Fruit and Vegetable Guide
for tips from the book on how to choose, store, prepare,
and use selected fruits and vegetables.
