Delia's Vegetarian Collectionby: Delia Smith September 07, 2006 Best Selling > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan |
||

Delia has fallen into the meat-eaters' trap of thinking she has to replace meat and fish with dairy products or eggs in the same quantities. If you used this book as your main source of recipes your chloresterol levels would go through the roof. There are whole sections on cheese and egg recipes and most of the others feature a lot of full-fat dairy products as well. You would also need a palatial kitchen to house the myriad of specialised ingredients and equipment required (no wonder that she has her own range of cookware).
I admit that some of the recipes are very delicious, if somewhat time-consuming to make, and the instructions are clearly written. However, as a vegetarian cook for a vegetarian family, I found a lot of it unapproachable. >>More Details |

If you're bored of mashed potato or boiled carrots, this book will provide you with plenty of ideas on how to prepare vegetables in a new, original way. I have tried many lovely dishes from this book; my favourites are the carrots boiled in cream and basil (absolutely delicious), the layered potato and tomato pie, celery risotto, chard and mushroom fettucine (I've never liked chard very much and I loved this dish!), the orange and fennel salad, lentil soup with butternut squash and fennel, the pear, parmesan and celery salad, and many more. All ingredients are easy to find in your local shop and rely on good quality olive oil and balsamic vinegar to bring out the tatste of the vegetables rather than soaking them in tons of mayonnaise or salad dressing. ...

The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbookby: Joanne Stepaniak November 30, 2003 Best Selling > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan |

As a long time vegan, I was almost embarrassed about buying a 'fake' cheese cookbook. Its soo much more though! The recipes are reliably wonderful and surprisingly healthy. Potential allergens are listed at the side, they have interesting variations to most recipes.
It does use american cup sizes (you dip the different size cups into dry or wet ingredients), as do a lot of vegan cook books, personally I find that far easier than weighing things out, I actually convert English weighed recipes to cups! Ingredients that might be new to people (nutritional yeast, umeboshi plums) can be found in health food shops or often supermarkets now. The only pain is getting onion powder, I used to make it in a coffee grinder, but you could always use onion ... Read More: >>More Details |

The Vegan Taste of Mexico (Vegan Cookbooks)by: Linda Majzlik March 28, 2002 Best Selling > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan |

Highly recommended. I like this international series and used many of the recipes in this particular book to cook for a Mexican-themed party and the food was just delicious - vegans and non-vegans alike couldn't get enough of it and it looked fantastic too. Aubergine Enchiladas and Mango Salsa were some of the biggest hits, as was the Mole Sauce. While the book includes the usual chilli/guacamole/rice dishes, it really does push the boat out regarding more innovative meals, yet the ingredients are mostly easy to get hold of. However, most people will want to add salt as none of her recipes include this!

Naturally: How to Look and Feel Healthy, Energetic and Radiant the Organic Wayby: Jo Wood, Jane Ross-Macdonald January 04, 2007 Best Selling > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan |

This book is terrible (why doesn't Amazon let you give something 0 stars?!). Knowing famous people and having been to expensive doctors/therapists does not qualify you to write a book about organic principles. I can't believe anyone agreed to publish this load of tripe. They clearly didn't spend much money on proofreading/editing, either, and the layout means the whole thing is even more wasteful than it would have been anyway. Avoid!

Quick Vegetarian Pleasures: Fast, Delicious, and Healthy Meatless Recipesby: Lemlin Jeanne December 20, 1991 Best Selling > Books > Vegetarian and Vegan |

|
I'm not even a vegetarian, and I love this book. There are many of Lemlin's dishes that are special enough for entertaining, and, as promised, they really are quick to fix. She doesn't fall into the exotic ingredient trap, either - one trip to the supermarket will do ya. I usually check cookbooks out from the library before I purchase them, and this one passed the test!

Fantastic book, every recipe is delicious. This and her blog are fast becoming our only source of recipes! Can't wait to get her other book Cook 1.0: A Fresh Approach to the Vegetarian Kitchen: A Fresh Approach to the Vegetarian Kitchen.
The only problem is sometimes it's difficult to find some of the more exotic ingredients which appear to be available on every street corner in San Francisco - but that's what Google's for. >>More Details |
