This fantastic volume constitutes a must-have for all who cook with vegetables. Including a range of interesting recipes for tasty dishes, as well as chapters on botany, nutrition, history, and preparation; "An A to Z of Vegetables and their Cooking" is worthy of a place in any culinary collection. Contests include: "Apples", "The Globe Artichoke", "To Fry Artichokes", "Tart of Cream of Artichokes", "To Boil Artichokes", "To do Hartichok Bottoms", "Artichokes the Italian Way", "General Directions", "Artichokes Boiled", "Artichokes Boiled and Stuffed", "Artichoke Bottoms", "Artichoke Bottoms a la Curnonsky", "Artichoke Bottoms with Mushrooms", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on vegetarianism.
