Why read it?

1 author picked Acetaria as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

John Eveyln’s book is classic. He was the first person (in English anyway) to discuss exotic vegetables, even common weeds, in terms of healthy salads. The man was literary, very smart, and he knew how to cook. I have often used his recipes and surprising enough, he is as trendy today as he was in 1699.

From William's list on for garden gourmets.
