Fall Recipes from Les Legumes
Pascale Beale’s latest culinary treat, Les Légumes: Vegetable Recipes from the Market Table (the third in her Market Table series), revels in cooking with vegetables throughout the seasons. Grouped by key ingredients, with full-page photos of every recipe, delightful anecdotes, practical tips and uncomplicated recipes that work every time, Les Légumes transforms vegetable dishes into the centerpiece of any meal.
The author’s recipes were inspired by, amongst other things: seeing a documentary on Louis Comfort Tiffany, discovering fresh buffalo mozzarella in Venice, munching on raw asparagus in a friend’s garden, her childhood adventures in the kitchen with her grandmother and, of course, the food she finds every week at local farmers’ markets, be they in London, France or California, the places she calls home.
Highlighting the flavor, textures and colors of over 40 vegetables, Les Légumes celebrates eating with the seasons with spectacular and creative savory dishes.
