Ramps: The Cookbook - The Editors of St Lynn's Press - Bog

THE WORD IS OUT. This wild-foraged spring delicacy is the newest food celebrity. If you've ever tasted its earthy delights at an Appalachian ramp festival or a fine restaurant in the city, you know what the buzz is about. RAMPS brings together favorite recipes from chefs, food writers and home cooks, celebrating every part of this versatile vegetable: root, bulb, stem and leaf. Call it a ramp or a wild leek - it's the same aromatic wonder-plant. "A cookbook devoted solely to ramp recipes is long overdue. We are delighted that this talented group of chefs and writers has come together to offer a wide selection of their best for your pleasure. Enjoy!" -From the Foreword by Chef Todd C. Gray, Equinox and Watershed restaurants, Washington, D.C.
