Whole Foods Companion

by Dianne Onstad

Whole Foods Companion Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

Each entry includes nutritional value, general information, buying tips, culinary uses, and, when appropriate, health benefits, lore and legend, by-products, and descriptions of the more popular varieties. In the face of staggering confusion and conflicting claims about the nutritional value of different foods and herbs, this book is a detailed and invaluable guide to natural foods. It is a perfect companion to cookbooks and should be required reading for chefs everywhere. No mere collection of dry nutritional information, "Whole Foods Companion also explains the origins and naming of different foods and relays some of the legends and traditions with which they have been associated.
