“For me, Ros Creasy is the Mother Goddess of a new generation of American kitchen gardeners. She inspires us all by showing how the twin passions of gardening and cooking are connected in history and practice. Her extensive research, combined with a personal writing style that reveals her creative zest, make her books absolute essentials for all gardening cooks.”

“Rosalind Creasy, having championed the beauty of vegetables, has returned to remind us that we cannot live by beauty alone. In each of these splendid volumes she guides us from the garden to the table and in so doing illustrates that all our meals are rooted in the earth, that the spoon and the spade are inseparable.”
