Cooking in an ecological way does require some changes from old habits, and Lucid Food by Louisa Shafia can help you do it. Her recipes sound a little more elaborate than my simple cooking style, but I’m going to watch for this book in a library or friend’s house, and see if I am wrong. — Zana

Product Description
Words like “organic,” “seasonal,” and “local” are on everyone’s mind, but how do we integrate food politics into a daily practice that is convenient, affordable, and delicious?

Sustainable chef and caterer Louisa Shafia shows eco-conscious home cooks how to green their cuisine by making earth-friendly food choices, sourcing animal products ethically and responsibly, supporting local food, and reducing one’s carbon footprint through urban gardening, preserving, composting, and more.

Promoting simple, delicious meals and green lifestyle ideas, LUCID FOOD celebrates the pleasures of in-season cooking that is healthy, honest, pure, free of additives, and transparently made, from farm to table.
