When you say it's organized by season, do you mean meals traditional for each season or does it extend to using seasonal ingredients as well? The Epicurious Cookbook by Tanya Steel & The Editors of Epicurious New Cookbook Flag this comment	10/31/12 4:51 PM

Whoops, last comment got cut off. Trying again: I write/edit a blog where we post recipes inspired by books (like this one: http://www.paperplatesblog.com/2012/06/25/strawberry-tart-recipe/) and we try to include a little information about why the recipe is related to the book in the "headnote." We're still trying to figure out the right intro-to-recipe ratio, but I think a short/medium intro is a good way for the writer to share why they're posting that specific recipe. Too long and I lose interest. I am there for the recipe, after all. Considering the Recipe Headnote: When Is It Too Much? Flag this comment	7/5/12 5:15 PM
