Wild Garlic Gooseberries Denis Cotter
Even thought there are some recipes I won't be able to do because of my location. This book opened my eyes to some new creativity and new ingredients. I tried to like this book. It is just so hard to get into. The author rambles on without any direction. I keep wondering, "What is he talking about now? Case in point, the Introduction begins with: The answer to the first question was almost always a moan, often very long, sometimes monosyllabic. To the second question I would answer simply, 'Vegetables' and most of the time I really felt that it was enough of an explanation.
Sadly, that comes out when reading. The book suffers from a terrible lack of organization and identity crisis. Looking to the table of contents offers no insight either. Introduction It's a green thing Wild pickings A passionate pursuit Growing in the dark Index Acknowledgements About the author The chapter titles are meaningless and give no indication what is in them.
Wild Garlic, Gooseberries and Me by Denis Cotter
The first chapter, "Its a green thing" is where the author starts rambling on about different kinds of vegetables like kale, asparagus and watercress. Denis Cotter's acclaimed collection of superb vegetarian recipes and evocative tales is now available in paperback. Wild Garlic, Gooseberries and Me cajoles, informs and questions our relationship to the land and the vegetables we eat. We go on a personal journey with Denis as he shares his passion for his favourite foods.
Denis drags us into muddy fields and introduces us to the growers of the best produce imaginable.

Order this Item Order this Item. It is a book you can actually read, that tells you in a pleasantly discursive way a lot about your greens - from the familiar! The recipes are intriguing and original but even if you never cook a single thing out of this book which would be a crying shame , its worth buying for Denis's beautiful prose - you'll never think of vegetables in the same way again.
This is exactly the kind of book you need to make the most of them. Denis Cotter, owner of Cafe Paradiso in Cork, Eire, has a way with veg, and his passion for them really comes through.
