Review
"The latest in the 'Edible' series (Edible Brooklyn), this cookbook introduces readers to food producers and purveyors in the Puget Sound region. To showcase unique and iconic ingredients, Lightner (editor, Edible Seattle magazine) has compiled such diverse recipes as Rhubarb Bruschetta, Sunchoke and Chanterelle Hash, Pork Banh Mi, and Razor Clam Linguine. Sidebars (“Edible Tips”) supplement the recipes with facts, techniques, and substitutions, and profiles and interviews appear throughout... Evocative writing and photography distinguish this book from similar titles." --Library Journal
