I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This book was around 3.5 stars for me.

This book breaks down recipes by their ingredients. Each chapter highlights difference vegetables as well as similar vegetables in their family. The chapter has recipes based on the highlighted vegetable with tips on cooking them, things to consider when pairing them, and common uses. The way that the recipes are written was a bit confusing for me. Instead of listing the ingredients and then the steps the recipe is written so the ingredients and their amounts are in bold throughout the steps, which can be hard to follow if you're not familiar with what you're cooking.

This book has a ton of useful information and recipes. It even has information on growing you own veggies and when to grow them and everything. This will definitely help me incorporate more veggies into meals for my family!

Love, love this book and especially the information in the beginning regarding growing seasons and best ways to use different vegetables. As a family, we are trying to eat more vegetable forward as well as seasonal and this book will be a great tool to help us with that.

I’ve earmarked so many of the recipes and so excited to try them with my family.

I am a veggie girl through and through, always have been. I am constantly looking for new ways to try some of my favorites, but also new vegetables to explore and this was such a fun book to go through.

I loved that the book gave us information on growing regions and seasons, it helps you understand why some produce is harder to find than others and when the others are in best conditions. Also made me realize Im storing some of my produce incorrectly.

This isnt a conventional cookbook, and the recipe format isnt ideal. It focuses more on general knowledge and the recipes are there as ideas and support for each section. I will say a lot of these recipes included are not things Id really ever think of making before, but im curious to expand my palette.

This book is probably best useful for people who are really passionate about vegetable agriculture or people who are vegetarian or vegan.

Veg-Table by Nik Sharma. I think I enjoy vegetables as much as the next person. Nik Sharma takes it to a whole new level! The first few chapters are super helpful for understanding vegetables, varieties, seasons, edible parts, tips, tricks, and tools. There is a lot of science incorporated to better help you understand storage and cooking as well.
The chapters begin with an in-depth discussion of the family of plant and then multiple recipes. The recipes are easy to follow and made me feel empowered to try something new.

Veg-table by Nik Sharma

I'm so excited to dig further into this cookbook! It starts with about 20 pages of general information about vegetables - history, seasons, parts, families and using them in kitchen. It is organized by vegetable family, and each section starts with a brief introduction including descriptions, origins, and cooking/storage tips. Several recipes using the vegetables follow.

The cookbook includes a clear table of contents as well as an index, and the photography is beautiful.

My one complaint is that there isn't an ingredient list for each recipe. The measurements and ingredients are listed boldly within the recipe, making the reader search through to gather ingredients.
