Grilling is not just for steaks and burgers anymore. With the right techniques and a little creativity, you can grill fruits and vegetables to create extraordinary dishes that will wow your family and friends.

In his new book, "Extraordinary Ways to Grill Fruits and Vegetables," grilling expert Steven Raichlen shares his secrets for grilling fruits and vegetables to perfection. Raichlen has been grilling for over 40 years, and he has mastered the art of cooking over live fire.

In this book, Raichlen shares his favorite recipes for grilled fruits and vegetables, including:

But this book is more than just a collection of recipes. Raichlen also provides detailed instructions on how to grill fruits and vegetables using different methods, including:

• Direct grilling: This is the most common method of grilling, and it is best for fruits and vegetables that can withstand high heat, such as peaches, pineapple, and zucchini.
• Indirect grilling: This method is best for fruits and vegetables that are more delicate, such as tomatoes and corn.
• Smoking: This method infuses fruits and vegetables with a smoky flavor, and it is best for fruits and vegetables that have a long cooking time, such as apples and pears.

With Raichlen's guidance, you'll be able to grill fruits and vegetables like a pro. So fire up your grill and get ready to enjoy some extraordinary dishes.
