Dupree nailed it--the book is exactly as advertised. Dupree focuses on tips, techniques and recipes for 'classic' Southern vegetables. Dupree refrains from adding their own spin on recipes--my Southern Grandmother would have recognized these vegetables and the way they're fixed in these recipes. (I appreciate Dupree's restraint. Basic recipes and techniques are exactly what I was looking for.)
I will definitely be turning my hand to multiple recipes (and vegetables) from this book.

I love Southern food and I love vegetables, so I was excited to check out this cookbook. I won't say there were no good recipes in it, but there wasn't anything that caught by eye that I wanted to try. I did like that she organized the book by each vegetable with a few recipes for each one, but overall I was disappointed and wouldn't recommend this one.

I was disappointed by the lack of photos of the recipes. However, did appreciate that the recipes varied from simple to slightly more complicated, making this very accessible.

Great vegetable recipes but very buttery! I couldn't eat them like this everyday. Love my fresh, simple, steamed veggies.
