“Naturally Ella” Book Launch Party Wednesday, October 30th

Erin Alderson’s third cookbook, THE YEARLONG PANTRY is a vegetarian guide to grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. In her book she shares her favorite cooking techniques and so many delicious recipes. Join Erin and all the Magpies here at 5pm on Wednesday October 30th to have a book signed, buy a book and just hang out and talk food. Stay as long as you like. The Magpie kitchen will be passing vegetarian bites. There will be wine, hibiscus tea and there is plenty of space in the dining room if you’d like to stick around Magpie and dine. Click here if you’d like to to let us know you are coming.

Learn which grains to fry, pop, or leave to the rice cooker, plus how to turn different nuts into butters, creams, or salad crunchies, and which beans stand up well in hearty sauces or as purees. Chapters, organized by ingredient, start with basic background, buying, storage, and cooking lessons with charts, then dive into recipes to showcase THE YEARLONG PANTRY with seasonal vegetable swaps.
