About the Book

Part plant guide, part cookbook, and part cultural history, this beautifully made volume introduces nineteen fruits and vegetables that all originated in the Americas and are now known around the world. Readers discover indispensable staples such as potatoes, corn, tomatoes, sunflowers, and squash, along with foods no kitchen could do without today, like vanilla and chili peppers. Each entry blends botanical information with the story of how these plants traveled and transformed global cuisine, and recipes invite families and classrooms to taste the history for themselves.
