I came across a great book today that I'm looking forward to tearing through over the next year. Written by Alice Waters, the book is titled "Chez Panisse Vegetables". Laid out as a complete reference guide to all sorts of common vegetables, it's a great resource for coming home from the market to see what exactly you can do with turnips.
The cooking instructions are laid out quite simply; they don't bother with ingredients lists or exact amounts, it mostly deals in pinches, gists and what the desired effect is. I quite like that sort of writing (once you've cooked enough to be comfortable winging it a little -- which I'm not great at).
