Cooking in the Regions

Debby Erickson. Rhubarb, Rhubarb, Rhubarb. Illustrated by Beverley Sostad. [Kamloops, B.C.: D. Erikson, 1983]
James Barber. Mushrooms Are Marvellous. Vancouver: Douglas and McIntyre, 1984
"Properly cooked mushrooms have a variety of unique textures: sliced, whole or quartered, they're all different... They give depth and character to quite simple and ordinary dishes," says James Barber (p. 6), popular television personality.
