<p><b>A <i>Globe and Mail</i> Top 100 Books of 2021</b></p><p><b><i>In this follow-up cookbook to her Taste Canada Gold Winner </i>All the Sweet Things<i>, Ren&#233;e Kohlman turns her attention to vegetables . . . and her love for a handsome vegetable farmer.</i></b></p><p>On Ren&#233;e Kohlman&#8217;s very first date with her partner Dixon, he presented her with a bundle of asparagus. She knew immediately it was love and that her next cookbook would be all about vegetables.</p><p>In 23 chapters organized by vegetable, from that auspicious Asparagus to the reliable Zucchini, <i>Vegetables: A Love Story</i> includes 92 delicious and easy-to-follow vegetable-forward (but not exclusively vegetarian) recipes. Soups, salads, sides, tarts, casseroles, pastas, snacks, and more are accompanied by vivid photography that celebrates both raw ingredients and finished dishes.</p><p>The book is prefaced with a recommended ingredient list for pantry, fridge, and freezer; the author&#8217;s favourite kitchen tools; tips for successful cooking and vegetable storage. It also includes seven essays that tell the story of Ren and Dix&#8217;s relationship and the significance of vegetables to the life they&#8217;ve built together, all delivered with the signature blend of humour and heart that readers of Ren&#233;e&#8217;s blog and newspaper columns have come to love. With a little cajoling she was even able to get Dixon to contribute some of his own insights to the pages. In Ren&#233;e&#8217;s own words, &#8220;it&#8217;s a love story about food and a food story about love.&#8221;</p>
