@nytcooking has a big excerpt from I DREAM OF DINNER, with five recipes that turn vegetables into pasta sauces and range from raw to cooked forever. The story is for these moments: “My heart says pasta but my head says vegetables.” “Oops what do I do with all the spring produce I just impulse-purchased?” “What the hell are we gonna eat tonight?” Search “Ali Slagle veggie pasta sauce nyt” for answers.

Every “yes” is a triumph, so it’s surreal to have published 200+ recipes @nytimes or that my book is in its pages. I’m thankful to every person in my career who’s said “yes,” especially @emweinstein and @emofly all those years ago.
