Description/Notes
Anyone who loves cooking and eating great food agrees that for the best results you need to start with good quality ingredients. For consumers, this usually means a bewildering array of choices, with familiar and exotic ingredients readily available regardless of the season. Organically produced items are also now appearing on our supermarket shelves, often generating conflicting opinions as to their merits. This book not only offers a clear explanation of the organic movement with practical advice on buying, storing and cooking, but also provides over 140 great recipes that make the most of these fabulous ingredients. A comprehensive review features the exciting range of fresh and store-cupboard organic ingredients available today. There is detailed information on how their production and health benefits vary from conventional examples, as well as how their taste and texture differs. Fruit and vegetables, meat, poultry and fish, herbs and seasonings - even organic wine and coffee - are discussed in a clear, helpful manner. Learn about unusual items such as rapadura, an organic sugar, and rediscover the pleasure of buying locally grown familiar ingredients such as apples and potatoes. The recipes featured in this book show how fabulous dishes can be prepared simply and easily with fresh seasonal produce. Try tender lamb with baby potatoes for a wonderful spring meal, roast chicken with Mediterranean vegetables in summer, garlic.
