Vegetables in the Leading Role

For everyone interested in vegetables, with theory and practice!
Vegetables are important, and we want to know what we eat. More and more people are concerned with nutrition, their own vegetable garden, seasonal eating or local food. This book is for them, with some theory, but especially a lot of practical information!
Peter Bauwens briefly discusses the background of vegetables, the global food problem, and the possible role vegetables can play in it. And about different ways of growing, from self-sufficiency to city gardens or growing on the windowsill. This also includes new crops, such as quinoa, sugar snap peas, leaf mustard, sprouts and microgreens: quick to grow, easy to harvest, delicious and nutritious.
He then zooms in on twelve types of vegetables, with practical information on how to grow them and what delicious recipes you can make with them, so you can get started yourself. Vegetables are the food of the future!
