Leaf – Cookbook Giveaway

Enter to win a copy of Leaf: Lettuce, Greens, Herbs, Weeds: 120 Recipes That Celebrate Varied, Versatile Leaves by Catherine Phipps in our giveaway below.

Leaf is not a book about salads. True there are salad recipes shared in this beautifully photographed title but the scope of recipes is far more reaching. From herb jellies and sauces, soups, seafood and meat dishes, vegetarian main courses to desserts, these recipes are unique and varied offerings that celebrate leaves in all their glory.

Cabbage potstickers, Herb pies, Braised chicken with coriander, chilli and orange, and a Pear and rosemary upside-down cake are just a few of the standouts in this book filled with recipes that will add more versatility to your menus. I urge you to peruse the index yourself. For instance, Russian caravan gypsy tart or Basil and Kaffir lime leaf cheesecakes look absolutely mind-blowingly good and are something I’ve never come across before. Having just received the book this weekend, I haven’t had a chance to get cooking. There is only one problem though each time I open the book I find something new and exciting to try.

When Diana Henry, picks Leaf as one of her top twenty books of fall, you know the book is great.

Our takes you inside this stunning book and features the following
