The Wide World Of Vegetables

Walk out into your vegetable garden, grab your CSA share, or casually stroll around your local farmers' market and it's happening. Mother Earth has produced an eye-popping and mouth-watering bounty of sweet corn, cucumbers, tomatoes, garlic. And on and on.

Now you can learn how to get the most out of all those fabulous vegetables from Eating Well's new book "Vegetables: The Essential Reference."

Eating Well Editor-in-Chief Jessie Price joins us to share recipes and discuss the health benefits on everything from artichokes to yuca.

Also on the program, VPR's Emily Alfin Johnson and Pete Hirschfeld wrap up our coverage from the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.

Broadcast live on Friday, July 29, 2016 at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
