When we were preparing to open our first produce retail business, this book became my source for selection and preparation of all vegetables, from A to Z.  This book is an excellent source for learning about a wide variety of vegetables.  The recipes contain eggs and dairy and must be significantly modified for health purposes.  The running commentary on each recipe is what meat dish it would accompany nicely.  After a while, this gets a little monotonous and overdone.  Taking all of this into account, it has been a steady reference guide over the years for me whenever I have a question about a less frequently used or hard to find vegetable.
