In food instructor Pfalzer's debut, she offers recipes that let natural flavors of fruits shine through when used in meals and baked goods . . . Suggestions for ingredients and equipment are a bonus to this beautifully photographed book. -Library Journal Simple Fruit . . . is conveniently organized seasonally, which also serves as a way of knowing what's in season . . . Paired with Charity Burggraaf's vibrant, beautifully composed photos of the fruits that almost jump off the page and beg to be eaten, Simple Fruit is a fine addition to any PNW-geared cookbook library. -The Stranger
