    The Vegetable Bible

    My family recently joined a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) farm and will be receiving a bag of vegetables each week. I am considering this book my "vegetable bible" because it provides an great introduction to almost every vegetable you are likely to encounter. Each vegetable is described in detail, including its flavor, how to store it, how to cook it, and several recipes to use it in. Since the book is aimed about people eating locally-grown produce, they have also included recipes with seasonal mixtures of vegetables. The recipes are healthy and easy to cook, with few ingredients. Another feature I liked of the book is the introductory chapters, which have information about CSAs and eating locally. I highly recommend this to other readers wanting to learn how to prepare a wide range of vegetables.
