With her love of whole food and her know-how as a chef, Amy Chaplin wrote an influential book ahead of its time that includes all you need to eat well at every meal, every day, year-round. Ten years later, it remains a beloved, go-to guide for home cooks.

This anniversary edition begins with an updated introduction detailing the author's journey working with food. Part one educates the reader on stocking the pantry, offering not just a list of items needed but real working knowledge on how and when to use ingredients, including a foundation of simple recipes for daily nourishment. From there, the book presents a collection of recipes celebrating vegetarian cuisine in its brightest, most sophisticated form. Black rice breakfast pudding with coconut and banana? Yes, please. Beet tartlets with poppy seed crust and white bean fennel filling? I'll take two. Fragrant eggplant curry with cardamom basmati rice, apricot chutney, and cucumber lime raita? Invite company. Honey vanilla bean ice cream with roasted plums and coconut crunch? There is always room for this kind of dessert. This is whole food for everyone.
