There is a collaboration going on called Women of Taste coordinated by Girls I My chef is Debroah Madison who writes wonderful vegetarian cook books, The Savory Way, The Green’s Cookbook and Vegetarian Cooking For Everyone. She suggested we do something with artichokes, because she likes to cook what is in season and when we started, artichokes were in season.
I added some asparagus and ivy to complete the composition. There will be a book out that will include all of these collaborations.
