(Author)
Description
When it was first issued, Tassajara Cooking became an overnight classic. Ed Brown's recipes for cooking--for learning to appreciate all the steps involved in making a meal, from selecting the ingredients to serving the finished dish--struck a chord with people who care about food and nutrition. This groundbreaking book, in a completely redesigned format, is just as timely and relevant today, more than thirty years later. Brown discusses methods for working with vegetables, grains, beans, dairy products, and fruits; cooking techniques; and suggestions for planning good tasting, nutritious meals, from soups and salads to desserts. Generously seasoned with illustrations that detail every part of the cooking process, Tassajara Cooking is a comprehensive guide to inspired cooking, with joy.Product Details
