Veg-table Recipes, Techniques, and Plant Science for Big-Flavored, Vegetable-Focused Meals by Nik Sharma

From the bestselling author of The Flavor Equation and Season : A
fascinating exploration of the unique wonders of more than fifty
vegetables through captivating research, stunning photography, and
technique-focused recipes.
Nik Sharma, blogger at A Brown Table, Serious Eats columnist, and
bestselling cookbook author, brings us his most cookable collection of recipes
yet in Veg-table . Here is a technique-focused repertoire for weeknight mains
for cooks of all skill levels looking to add more delicious and satisfying
vegetable dishes to their diet.
Combining the scientific underpinnings of The Flavor Equation with the inviting
and personal recipes of Season, this book features more than fifty vegetables,
revealing their origins, biology, and unique characteristics. Vegetable-focused
recipes are organized into chapters by plant family, with storage, buying, and
cooking methods for all. The result is a recipe collection of big flavors and
techniques that are tried, true, and perfected by rigorous testing and a deep
scientific lens.
Included here are Sharma's first-ever pasta recipes published in a cookbook:
Pasta with Broccoli Miso Sauce, Shallot and Spicy Mushroom Pasta, and

and animal protein together with delicious recipes like Chicken Katsu with
