Cookbook giveaway – Nourish

Nourish cookbookThe authors of the new cookbook Nourish: Whole Food Recipes featuring Seeds, Nuts & Beans created the book after discovering a mutual love for beans. The duo, Nettie Cronish and Cara Rosenbloom, felt that  nutritious and inexpensive legumes, along with seeds and nuts, are often underutilized in everyday cooking. Since those ingredients offer a positive nutritional impact that belies their size and can be easily incorporated into familiar foods like granola and chili, your morning oatmeal, and the crust on tuna or lamb chops, Nettie and Cara decided to write a cookbook dedicated to legumes, nuts and seeds. (You can read more about the book in our author interview.)

We’re delighted to offer 2 copies of Nourish to EYB Members in the U.S. and Canada only. One of the entry options is to answer the following question in the comments section of this blog post:

Which legume do you most enjoy to make and eat?

Please note that you must be signed into the Rafflecopter contest before posting the comment or your entry won’t be counted. If you are not already a Member, you can join at no cost. The contest ends April 9, 2016.

    Really — a toss-up: chick peas or cannelini beans. Where live, it's hard to get some of the other interesting beans I keep reading about.

  • Barb_N  on  March 12, 2016

    Hah, I am about to amke Asian noodle vegetable soup tonight- if only I had this cookbook to guide me…

  • decorates  on  March 12, 2016

    I love cooking with corn – the sweetness and texture is wonderful.

  • ladibyrd  on  March 12, 2016

    Cowpeas / black eyed peas (particularly from our garden), and I keep meaning to do something with all these chickpeas!

  • jupflute  on  March 13, 2016

    probably chickpeas

  • allthatsleftarethecrumbs  on  March 13, 2016

    We really don't get a great variety here so mostly it is chickpeas, but I'd love to branch out more and maybe order some online.

  • ballen  on  March 13, 2016

    Garbanzo beans because of versatility but black eyed peas a very close second!

  • eliza  on  March 13, 2016

    Lentils are my favourite legume.

  • hillsboroks  on  March 13, 2016

    Chickpeas, split peas and navy beans top my list.

  • jecca  on  March 13, 2016

    Lentils, with chick peas a close second. Both are very versatile!

  • pandapotamus  on  March 16, 2016

    lentills!

  • Mariarosa  on  March 16, 2016

    I really love borlotti beans….

  • emjamison  on  March 16, 2016

    I enjoy cooking with black beans most, then garbanzo beans. I love the versatility of both, whether simply adding them to a recipe, or creating something new, such as a black bean cracker paired with a white bean or classic chickpea hummus. However, if I am going to sit down to eat a bowl of legumes by themselves it would be a bowl of lima beans, hands down.

  • ravensfan  on  March 18, 2016

    I like cooking with chick peas.

  • JanScholl  on  March 23, 2016

    I love black beans , maybe way too much! But lately I have been looking to green peas. I think just a bowl of peas with a pinch of mint and maybe a little spice and I am happy.

  • sgump  on  March 23, 2016

    Chickpeas! (I recall a particularly energetic and always upbeat classmate of mine from college, ca. 1990s: When I asked her for her secret one day, she gaily replied, "Chickpeas!" before bouncing off, likely to the nearest salad bar.)

  • sarahawker  on  March 24, 2016

    Black Beans, I can them every few months and we eat them in everything!

  • brenboites  on  March 24, 2016

    Add me to the fans of chickpeas. Good in salads, hummus, soup and falafels.

  • Cie  on  March 25, 2016

    I always go back to cannellinis — my fave!

  • Sfgordon  on  March 25, 2016

    I have several types of beans stocked in my pantry, but I always seem to run out of chickpeas first. They can be a main, a side, an addition to a salad, etc., and now I even save the canning liquid, "aquafaba" for vegan meringue.

  • mpennington  on  March 25, 2016

    Chick peas or beans…either great northern, navy or black beans.

  • AhoritaComida  on  April 2, 2016

    That would have to be the Phaseolus vulgaris! Diana Kennedy has a FABULOUS recipe in one of her Mexican cookbooks for Black Beans with Pork and Rice. This is where I learned to fry the raw rice in garlic oil till golden, and then to cook it in black-bean broth. The beans and pork are served over rice with several condiments on top like chopped radish, avacado, chopped onion, feta cheese and lots of lime juice squeezes. It is absolutely delicious and beautiful!!

  • louie734  on  April 3, 2016

    Black beans and chickpeas are most used/cooked. I do love lentils, especially lentil salads (but I hate picking them over)!

  • love2chow  on  April 8, 2016

    chickpeas or garbanzo beans – left whole in salads and chilis and mashed in hummus.
