Cooking Color is Arielle Toelke's illustrated guide to natural dyeing with stuff already in your kitchen. The book walks you through turning food scraps like avocado pits, onion skins, and hibiscus flowers into a full range of plant-based dyes and inks, with step-by-step recipes that actually work for beginners.

It covers the basics without being boring about it. There are recipes, there's illustration throughout, and the whole thing is designed to make natural dye feel approachable rather than intimidating. Good for anyone who's been curious about it but didn't know where to start.
