At first blush, it's a shock. A vegetable-focused cookbook from April Bloomfield, the mistress of meat, the queen of the burger, the overlord of offal? Well, yes. The same customers who revere her facility for pig's trotters and bone marrow, yearn just as intensely for her Caesar salad as they do for her legendary burger. And it just so happens that April's affection for pristine leaves of Swiss chard and bunches of radishes nearly surpasses her passion for lamb shoulder and suckling pigs.
