The
Anatomy of a Dish by Diane Forley, chef and proprietor of New York City's
Verbena restaurant, has been praised for dishes that are delicious yet "disarmingly
simple." Forley considers the relatedness of fruits and vegetables, grains, roots,
and tubers, and how their botanic lineages play out in recipes and menus. A good
deal of this information is spelled out in clear charts with lists of subsequent
recipes.
