Does anyone have a go to book for figuring out the wide array of vegetables available? My co-op delivered mustard greens this week. I planned to pickle them. Several of the recipes I considered had what seemed like odd directions for the leaves in front of me. A quick trip to the internet showed a variety of "mustard leaves" none of which looked like what I had. They pickled up fine, though I have no idea if this is what I am supposed to taste!
Is there a book or website, heavy on photos, that illustrates the wide variety of vegetables out there? I don't need recipes so much as good illustrations paired with general use/cuisine info. I have a lot of great books that claim to do the job, but really seem to be limited/outdated. Kale might have one entry, when my local grocery carries 3 kinds, sometimes more, and my coop has even more.
Maybe what I need is gardening book? a seed catalog?
Thanks,
