The Cook and the Gardener

$35

“They say the two things that money can’t buy are true love and home grown tomatoes.  I would add a third: good old fashioned home cookin’. Simple seasonal dishes, made with love. This book is organized by season with recipes that celebrate the flavors of the food. No pretentiousness. No heavy sauces or seasonings. Amanda Hesser, who considers herself a home cook, is one of the most sensitive and passionate food writers in America. If you love food. If you’ve ever labored over your soil. If you’ve ever caressed a peach like a proud father or mother. You will love this book.”
