Cook from the farmer's market with inspired vegetarian
recipes--many of which are gluten-free and dairy-free--with a
French twist, all highlighting seasonal produce.
Beloved ChocolateAndZucchini.com food blogger Clotilde Dusoulier is
not a vegetarian. But she has, like many of us, chosen to eat less
meat and fish, and is always looking for new ways to cook what
looks best at the market. In "The French Market Cookbook, "she
takes us through the seasons in 82 recipes--and explores the love
story between French cuisine and vegetables.
Choosing what's ripe and in season means Clotilde does not rely
heavily on the cheese, cream, and pastas that often overpopulate
vegetarian recipes. Instead she lets the bright flavors of the
vegetables shine through: carrots are lightly spiced with star
anise and vanilla in a soup made with almond milk; tomatoes are
jazzed up by mustard in a gorgeous tart; winter squash stars in
golden Corsican turnovers; and luscious peaches bake in a
cardamom-scented custard. With 75 color photographs of the tempting
dishes and the abundant markets of Paris, and with Clotilde's
charming stories of shopping and cooking in France, "The French
Market Cookbook" is a transportive and beautiful cookbook for food
lovers everywhere.
We think everyone should eat more plants, and we don’t just mean two carrots instead of one – it’s about enjoying all the colours of the veggie rainbow. Vegetables too often play second fiddle in a dish, and this book is here to change that. Between spiced rhubarb chutney, fennel gratin, and roast sweet potato with miso & ginger caramel, Eat Plants, Be Happy! puts veggies back exactly where they should be: at the centre of a meal.
With 130 simple, delicious, vegetable-focused recipes, authors Caroline Griffiths and Vicki Valsamis show how eating plant-based means eating well – and ensuring a happier mind, body and planet.

Though the word vegetarianism was not coined until the
mid-nineteenth century, the vegetarian diet has been around as long
as man has. Vegetarians have included in their number: heretics,
humanists, Hindus, Christian fundamentalists, radicals, agnostics,
philosophers, founders of religion and even an Emperor. Not
surprisingly vegetarians have often been discriminated against
sometimes tortured, even killed for their beliefs. So the history
of vegetarianism is also a history of dissidence and revolt. Colin
Spencers comprehensive book, reissued in paperback for the first
time in fifteen years explores the psychology of abstention from
flesh and attempts to discover why omnivorous humans at times
voluntarily abstain from an available food. The result is a
thorough work of scholarship, entertaining in places, horrifying in
others. The breadth of Spencers research is quite outstanding and
makes for a truly erudite read. He begins in pre-history and ends
in the present day. Colin Spencer is one of the countrys leading
food historians but his prolific output has not been limited to
this field alone. He has written nine novels, a dozen cookery
books, has had six plays produced, as well as writing for
television and film and was food columnist for The Guardian for
thirteen years. He has also written two other Grub Street titles:
British Food (9781908117038) and From Microliths to Microwaves
(9781908117007).
