Ebook excerpt of summer recipes from the monumental How to Cook Everything. Bittman's summer is clearly my summer (unsurprising, since we live in the same city); this is useful for me, but it might prove more frustrating for people whose local farmers markets provide a greater variety of summer fru...

How to Cook Everything Vegetarian is, hands down, one of my favorite cookbooks. The book itself is large, stuffed full of delicious and easy to follow recipes. It did not, however, achieve its size by being packed full of glossy pictures. There are drawn illustrations, but they never feel thrown in....

The advice strikes me as sensible (more plants, fewer animals, whole grains... you know the drill) and the book is well-written. One thing I especially liked was Bittman's easy-breezy approach to cooking, which mirrors my own. Cook up a mess of quinoa! Eat a bunch of it, throw the rest in the fridge...
