    Very educational!

    Wonderful information about vegetables that I don’t use much, mostly because I didn’t know how to cook with them or that they were completely unfamiliar to me growing up. I’ m starting to try new vegetables now that I have some excellent recipes right in the book to try! Many years of good use ahead!

  • Delicious, Unpretentious, and Impressive

    I first saw Marian Morash's "The Victory Garden Cookbook" in a college library, quietly tucked between the horticulture and cooking sections, as though the librarians weren't quite certain where it belonged. It's an understandable problem; the book, after all, could fit nicely in either. Organized alphabetically, each chapter guides you confidently through raising, harvesting, purchasing and preparing its vegetable. There are tips on general preparation as well as specific recipes, and each is accompanied by advice on what to do when things don't quite go as planned. While there aren't so many photos as most cookbooks these days have, there are plenty, and each one well placed by the relevant text. The recipes themselves are simple, clear, and use familiar ingredients. For the more ...

  • Essential Vegetable Cooking

    I wish I had known about this book a long time ago. If you want to eat more veggies, this book is for you. Starting with Asparagus & through Rutabagas, the author devotes each chapter to a vegetable. She introduces it, describes how it grows, how to choose the freshest ripe ones in the market, how to keep it & how to cook it. Simple, straightforward, conversational - she even included color photos. There are more than 800 basic recipes & variations here. This is the only veggie cookbook you need.

  • The Victory Garden Cookbook is great!!!!

    This is fastly becoming my favorite cookbook. It is garden season and this cookbook is set up to help you find things to do with surplus garden produce. The book is set up alphabetically by vegetable so everything is easy to find. There are tips on growing, storing, canning, and preparing a huge assortment of vegetables. I have owned this book for just a few months and have reached for it many times already. I am looking forward to using it for many garden seasons to come. I would recommend this book to anyone that has a garden.

  • The Victory Garden Cookbook by Marian Morash (1982)

    I bought this cookbook because I am planning on joining a food co-op this year and wanted a veggie cookbook. When I saw Victory GArden, I knew this was what I was looking for. I've watched the tv show for years and loved the recipes. The cookbook was just what I was hoping for. It has just about every vegetable in it in alphabetical order and all kinds of information about each vegetable and lots of recipes. The only thing I wasn't happy about was the binding of the book. It's old and was coming apart. But, I took it to a local store and had it spiral bound. It only cost me a couple of dollars and it's good as new or even better. I've tried a few recipes already and love the book. I tried a recipe for fennel that I had never eaten before and loved it. So did my family. I highly ...
