splendid - a must for every homeMarch 8, 2010 AIROLF(USA) This book provides thorough explanations on how to pick out, cook, prepare, and serve every vegetable. There are also pictures ans illustrations. Besides being thorough this book is also a quick reference guide with an accurate index. If you are serious about cooking and eating fruits and vegetables correctly and enjoyably, I can't recommend this book enough.
