Root Stem Leaf Flower: How to Cook with Vegetables and Other Plants – Cookbook Giveaway
April 6, 2021 by JennyEnter our US/UK/AU/NZ giveaway to win one of three copies of Root Stem Leaf Flower: How to Cook with Vegetables and Other Plants by Gill Meller.
Gill is a chef, food writer, author, food stylist and cookery teacher and has been part of the River Cottage team for 11 years. In 2017, he answered some questions for our members to celebrate Gather. While he has collaborated on several River Cottage titles, Pig & Pork, A to Z, and Outdoor Cooking, Gather was his first solo book. He followed with Time: A Year and a Day in the Kitchen and now Root Stem Leaf Flower – published in 2020 in the UK and in the US in March of this year. I do not own the River Cottage titles, but I know Meller’s three solo titles are beautiful.
