Mr. Wilkinson's Vegetables: A Cookbook to Celebrate the Garden by Matt Wilkinson

I was fortunate enough to win this cookbook in a First Reads Giveaway. For now, my review is just first impressions of the cookbook itself as I have not yet had the chance to try any of the recipes.

 

I like how the recipes are listed by what vegetable is the focus of the dish, which makes it easier for navigation. And as someone relatively new to cooking, I appreciate the tips for preparing each vegetables and even just discussing the differences between all the varieties of the same vegetable (such as eggplant). The photography and layout of the images are just gorgeous and sometimes I forget that I am looking at a cookbook rather than an artbook.

 

I would love to see a cookbook focusing on fruit done in the same fashion.

My Verdict: Four stars out of Five.
