Baking croutons and Melba toast extends the life of stale bread. Old loaves can be ground to make the base of new ones; 30 percent of Castel's unsold bread is thus reused. This approach is \"not revolutionary,\" he remarks, but rather \"a return to common sense.\" \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book's versatile pastry recipes are a foundation for a range of dishes. A similar base could produce a quiche or a roasted apricot \"pizza.\" Choux dough might be turned into profiteroles or ham-and-greens-stuffed buns topped with Parmesan. The steps are simple and reassuring, and the components and flavors are adaptable. Plant-based alternatives appear, as with a method for making pumpkin seed \"milk.\" \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eClose-up shots of alluring plates alternate with photographs of the garden and a table spread for convivial meals. Summer and autumn ripeness is sustained in jam, poached pears, and a rainbow of jarred vegetables. Fascinating combinations include a green tomato, raspberry, and mint jam. Dried hibiscus enlivens drinks and cakes. Sauces balance savory and sweet: an eggplant and hazelnut dip; a prune and almond hummus that contains honey, olive oil, and chickpeas. A pistachio, pumpkin seed, and white chocolate spread is a homemade take on Nutella. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eThe Seasonal Pantry\u003c\/i\u003e introduces an appealing repertoire of fresh, colorful, zero-waste homemade dishes.--Rebecca Foster \"Foreword Reviews\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBiographical Note\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBenoit Castel\u003c\/b\u003e's pantry is filled with jars, tins, and preserves.
