With each featured food there is a bit of history and lore followed by selection and storage information, varieties, preparation and culinary uses and 2-3 representative recipes. The content is organized into the 4 featured foods; Fruits, Nuts, Vegetables and Herbs and each is in turn broken down into food type, for example fruit is organized by citrus; soft; stone; tropical and vegetables by roots and tubers; stems and bulbs; flowers; leaves; fruit vegetables; seeds and pods and fungi.

The Produce Bible has a fresh, easy to follow design with some excellent photography of the fresh produce and many of the finished dishes. Whether you grow your own produce or frequent your local farmers markets this is a great guide to to follow along the seasons with.
