As the displays of apples grow abundant at local farmers' markets and farm stands, I've pulled my copy of The Apple Lover's Cookbook by Amy Traverso from the shelf. In addition to page after page of tempting recipes, this book is just plain good reading. What's more, it's a perfect reference book for apple season. 

Food lovers are familiar with Amy Traverso's writing from the Boston Globe, Salon, Travel + Leisure, and Yankee Magazine where she was Lifestyle Editor. 

The Apple Lover's Cookbook begins with an in depth reference section including an "Apple Varieties Primer" that has me reaching for apples I've never tried before with a surprising degree of skill. 

Next comes a section of "Cooking Tips and Pantry Notes." This will answer many of the questions that will run through your mind as you begin cooking or baking with the recipes. 

Here are a few of the recipes that already have Post-it flags permanently in place on my copy:

• Autumn "Coleslaw" with Dates, Apples, and Pecans
• Cider-Glazed Root Vegetables
• Squash and Apple Gratin
• Sausage with Braised Cabbage and Apples 
• Baked Apple Oatmeal Pudding
• Apple Bread Pudding with Salted Caramel Sauce
• Lowfat Gingerbread Applesauce Cake

Sprinkled throughout is the background information Amy gleaned visiting orchards and meeting the people who grow this splendid fruit. This is a book you will want to add to your collection and that you will pull out and keep at hand each autumn.

If you like this book you might also enjoy  Amy's work in Yankee's Lost & Vintage Recipes.
