The World Guide to Cooking with Fruit & Vegetables. By John Goode. First American Edition, First Printing. Dutton. New York, 1974.

In the mid-twentieth century, international markets increasingly provided a wider range of fruits and vegetables to people across the globe. But how to eat them? This is the frame by which John Goode presents The World Guide to Cooking with Fruit & Vegetables. It is a wonderfully photographed cookbook with recipes on all manner of fruits and vegetables. The work appeals to anyone trying to diversify their plates with healthier options, especially those who identify as vegetarians. Yet more importantly, the work showcases some experimental recipes on a wide range of fruits and vegetables–from crab apples to bamboo shoots to mogwort to yautias.
