Cooking with ramps book published

A cookbook, titled RAMPS: Cooking with the Best Kept Secret of the Appalachian Trail, features a collection of ramp recipes from chefs, food writers and home cooks, celebrating every part of the vegetable – from root to leaf.

“A cookbook devoted solely to ramp recipes is long overdue. We are delighted that this talented group of chefs and writers has come together to offer a wide selection of their best for your pleasure,” said Todd C. Gray, chef at Equinox and Watershed restaurants in Washington, D.C.

RAMPS presents the full gamut of dishes from traditional Appalachian recipes to “big-city” recipes from creative food writers and chefs coast-to-coast such as Mario Batali.
