New York Botanical Garden Cookbook
reviewed on + 49 more book reviews


From back cover: "Recipes from the board, staff and members of the New York Botanical Garden feature fresh ingredients prepared to emphasize their natural flavors. Standards such as 'meats, fish, vegetables, and desserts' are joined by a section of recipes for 'wildings' and bits of medicinal wisdom from the Renaissance. Reproductions of woodcuts and engravings from sixteenth and seventeenth century herbals in the Garden's famous collection grace almost every page. This is a magnificent book calculated to satisfy the eye as well as the palate."
