Product Description
Book Description
Nearly 6 million copies of The Vegetable & Herb Expert have been sold and it is widely regarded as the grow-your-own bible. It takes the story from the seed packet to the back door, but the second half of the story has been neglected – taking the produce from the back door and on to the table. People who have grown their own vegetables and fruit want to know all the things they can do with them, but this is not in the standard cookery books. The Garden to Kitchen Expert provides this information.
From the Back Cover
Nothing is more satisfying than to serve food grown at home. The Vegetable & Herb Expert, The Fruit Expert and The Greenhouse Expert show you how to get the very best from your garden or allotment. Now The Garden to Kitchen Expert completes the story, explaining how to prepare all the produce you have grown for the table.
·Classic recipes for each fruit and vegetable
·Trusted methods for everyday cooking
·New ideas for making the most of a glut
·How to serve your produce where no cooking is required
·How to store, preserve and pickle what you grow
·Exciting kitchen uses for flowers and weeds from your garden
Reliable and easy-to-follow in the style of EXPERT books - the world's best-selling gardening series

Format:Paperback
I own 6 or 7 books in the 'Expert' series, so I wasn't sure whether to order this book as `Vegetable Expert' already contains some cooking information, but I took a risk and it paid off. When the book arrived it was a lot thicker than I expected - just less than twice the thickness of my other Expert books. So it's good value for money. There's also lots, lots more info in the book about cooking and preparing fruit and veg than there is in `Vegetable Expert'. And there's loads of recipes too. I can see myself using this book when I return home from the allotment with a marrow or a punnet of gooseberries which I don't know what to do with. It's in the usual Expert style, with things listed alphabetically. There's plenty of traditional, practical recipes as well as new things to try. I'm really pleased with it. It's really good value for money and well researched. E.g for rhubarb you get the following recipes: poached, baked, caramelised, rhubarb fool, compote, plate pie, crumble, steamed rhubarb pudding, rhubarb and custard tart, rhubarb and strawberry meringues, rhubarb betty, rhubarb trifle, and rhubarb breakfast! There's a jam and pickle section, a weed section, a herb section, an ornamentals section, and a large fruit section. I love it.

I have several of the Garden Expert range books and this book, like the others, is just as great! Informative, inspiring and packed full of useful advice for the fruit and vegetable grower AND the chef(You might be both but in our household I'm the grower and my husband is the chef).Fab recipes for food and drink to try and great hints and tips to follow all in that easy to read Garden Expert style. A must for any chef and/or grow your own-er. Covers a good selection of fruit and vegetables. I particularly liked the "Weeds" chapter which gave lots of food/drink ideas on what to do with those, sometimes annoying, wildflowers that might pop up in your garden. I'll be trying out loads of the recipe ideas and enjoying this book for many years!!

A solid cookbook - nothing innovative
