What's This?
 

Description:

With over 400 recipes, this is the mother lode of vegan cookbooks--and Robin Robertson could be considered the leading mother figure in vegan cuisine. She begins with a pep talk about going vegan, including a general discussion of nutrition, the benefits of giving up meat, and how to set up a vegan household in a world that often seems at odds with the lifestyle. This all-around cooking pro offers many dishes typical of American kitchens as well as those abroad. The Ultimate Shepherd's Pie, bolstered by garden burgers and walnuts, is so hearty one might forget this classic ever relied heavily on red meat. Robertson also brings more exotic dishes to the table. Recipes borrow heavily from Eastern and European influences (such as a Tuscan White Bean dish and Mahogany Eggplant, with ginger, tamari, and sake) and are suffused with spices and flavor. Hitting on everything from fast food to desserts, Robinson brings a wealth of variety and flair to what was once considered a limited diet.

    • Great Recipes

      This is a great go to Vegan recipe book. I love the recipes and most of them are really fun and easy to make, but I love cooking so I don't know what someone else would think about that really. Bottom line, good recipes= good food= happy me.

      This is a great cookbook for vegans and non vegans! There is wonderful, helpful info and so many great recipes that I had to make a "TRY FIRST" list. This is one of my all time favorite cookbooks.

    • Makes a great gift!

      I bought this book for a Christmas gift and it is everything you would want in a vegan book. It has information as well as wonderful recipes. My son's girlfriend loves this book. The only thing I would ask more of would be color pictures of the recipes, but that seems to be how a lot of specialty cookbooks are formatted. I highly recommend this book to any vegan interested in adding to their knowledge and expanding their vegan cookbook collection.

  • Product Q&A

    Ask a Question
    Be the first to ask a question about this product.
  • With 400 recipes, this is probably the biggest vegan (no animal products-meaning dairy- and egg-free) cookbook on the market. It's also one of the best. Robertson (The Vegetarian Meat & Potatoes Cookbook) is a likable guide to possibly unfamiliar ingredients such as flaxseeds and sea vegetables, and the recipe choices are almost overwhelming. Robertson relies on the usual trick of digging into ethnic cuisines (Thai-Style Leaf-Wrapped Appetizer Bits, Baked Sweet Potato and Green Pea Samosas are among the appetizers) for vegetarian options, but she also innovates in clever ways, as with Here's My Heart Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette with hearts of romaine, artichoke hearts, hearts of palm and celery hearts. Some of the most versatile options appear in a chapter dedicated to sauces and dressings, such as Eggless Hollandaise and Vegan Bchamel Sauce. Chapters on breakfast ideas, sandwiches, wraps and burgers-with six different veggie burger options-ensure that all bases are covered. Occasionally, Robertson relies on packaged products like the soy sausage and mozzarella that appear in "Sausage" and Fennel Cannelloni, but most of these recipes simply make the best of vegetables, legumes and grains. A cogent foreword by Barnard (president of the Physicians' Committee for Responsible Medicine) reports the startling fact that Americans-apparently misled into believing that switching from red meat to white will improve their health-now eat one million chickens every hour. (Jan.) Forecast: This is a serious entry in the field, and should fare well in its target market-this country's estimated 10 million vegetarians. (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
