Leafy greens,
By A Customer
This review is from: Leafy Greens (Paperback)
So, you have stood in how many Asian grocery stores looking at the abundant greenery of these leafy veges? Too embrassed to ask the cashier what the hell to do to do with it . So you amble out with your head hung in wonderment. Wonder no more! Bittman to the rescue. Which pugnent goes with which sweet. Ohh the texture and the lace like delicatness of each leaf. He will set you straight. A true saviour to the salad bowl. I'm enlightened and impressed. No more boring B-B-Q salads. Thankyou.

Great guide to greens with a bunch of good recipes,
By Jessica Weissman "poet and computer programmer" (Silver Spring, MD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Leafy Greens (Paperback)
Bittman was good before he got famous - this book dates from 1997 or so. He describes and distinguishes among 30 types of greens, and gives a bunch (pun intended) of straightforward recipes for using them in tasty ways. Also methods for cooking them plain, with recommendations for which methods work best for which greens.
We use this book all the time, and have replaced two copies that disappeared, probably into the hands of housesitters. An updated version is coming out in the spring of 2012, but if you are fond of greens its worthwhile to grab a used copy now. Why wait? |
