Summary: Go To Work on Herb Cooking In Michigan
Review: Authors have pulled together growing, caring for and cooking with herbs in Michigan.

They begin with nice section on 12 easy to grow kitchen herbs providing vitals on each such as how to grow, harvest,history and culinary uses. This is followed by great ideas about designs in yard or garden or container, followed by recipes covering dining gamut from appetizers to desserts using Michigan available fresh ingredients.

Here are some samples: Wild Rice Blinis with Herb Topping Alternatives; Beef Tenderloin Salad with Thyme Balsamic Vinaigrette; Cherry & Apricot Stuffed Cornish Hens; Tequila Marinated Pork Tacos; Lemon Basil Buttermilk Pie.

Although there are no color photos, this is nicely done and informative with many ideas for herb use in cooking and baking.
