A Few Different Vegetable Combinations

Here's a few different vegetable combinations that you may not have thought about.

Onion, turnip, cabbage and cherry tomatoes.

Leek, radicchio and garlic

Onion, parsnip, kale and cherry tomatoes

Leek, potato, beet greens and garlic

In my mind the most perfect vegetable dish, is one that contains sweetness (onions, leeks) a little bitterness (leafy greens) and acid for the perfect Ph balance (tomatoes, vinegar).

When sauteing veggies always cook the hard vegetables like onions, leeks, celery, carrots and parsnip first, then add the cabbage, greens and tomatoes last, as these just need to be warmed or wilted.

Hope this helps.

Bon Appetit!  Chef Hobbes
