This is a 'must' cookbook for serious chefs,
By "lonay537" (Bellevue, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In Season: Culinary Adventures of a San Juan Island Chef (Paperback)
The most interesting thing about IN SEASON is the author's personal tales relative to each of the principal ingredients about which he writes. It is more than a cookbook, it is fascinating personal epoch which draws you in and keeps your interest, all the while giving good advice and recipes about Northwest products.
