One of the book’s testimonials is from author Robin Cook, who said: “Makes you both laugh and cringe.”
"Root"
By Rob Howell, Bloomsbury, 286 pages, $23 approximately
In his first book, the author – a chef at an English restaurant – moves vegetables into the limelight. It’s not a vegetarian or vegan cookbook per se, but is meant to show the versatility of vegetables.

"Who Needs Salt?"
By David Chippi, self-published, Vol. 1 (50 pages, 19 recipes), Vol. 2 (68 pages, 71 recipes), $39.95
A health scare led Avon Lake resident David Chippi to write these books and develop recipes. Chippi always loved cooking, he writes, and he has come up with a pair of softbound volumes that express his expertise and interest. Vol. 1 covers fundamentals while Vol. 2 is a collection of companion recipes. Dishes cover quite a range, and make no mistake: This is not a vegan or health-food book (shareable burrata stuffed sous vide Italian meatball anyone?) But the recipes share a trait: They are low sodium. Chippi writes clearly, photographs are included, and his message is an accessible one. (Related coverage: NE Ohio author bluntly addresses sodium issue)
"Plant-Based for Tired People"

Prep sections on the Mexican pantry and roasting vegetables are helpful. Just because you might not immediately know what a word means should not deter you from creating these tantalizing dishes (though the author translates every dish’s title). Salsa roja rostizada (roasted red salsa), Calabacitas con queso (Mexican squash with cheese) and many others await your cooking skills.
"Beautiful Salads"
By Pam Powell, Quarto Publishing, 159 pages, $27

By Lucy Vaserfirer, Harvard Common Press, 208 pages, $24.99
Seems to be two types of people in this world: Those who eat pasta, and those who make and eat it.

The humblest of ingredients are transformed into the most glorious of foods.” Sections on machine use, tools and ingredients precede 100 recipes, and don’t think Italian only. Taiwanese beef noodle soup, miso soup with shrimp and udon, fried wontons with soy dipping sauce and many others are included (along with many great Italian dishes).

By Laurel Randolph, Adams Media, 157 pages, $21.99
