Praise

“An invaluable contribution to vegetable home cookery.”
—Charlie Trotter, chef/owner of Charlie Trotter’s and author of Charlie Trotter’s Vegetables

“In The Roasted Vegetable, Andrea Chesman reveals for us the forthright flavor and pure simplicity of vegtables at their best. Her recipes are direct and straightforward—they had be running to the kitchen to fire up the oven—and show how roasting, like no other technique, intensifies a vegetable’s inherent flavor and underlines its individuality. Her book is versatile and eminently useful.”
—James Peterson, author of Vegetables, Fish and Shellfish, and Sauces

“These recipes are a gardener’s just desserts. In the oven, Andrea Chesman’s vegetables are transformed, emerging sweeter still. Think of them as toppings for ‘Sundae Dinner.’”
—Roger Swain, host of The Victory Garden and science editor of Horticulture magazine
