Average Rating:
 Rating: - Best veggie cookbook I ownI have been vegetarian for over 25 years, and have run through the gamut of Rose Elliot, Diet for a Small Planet, Moosewood, Greens, Millennium, you name it. This book is in a different league. I received it as a gift, and it is now my favorite cookbook. The recipes are nutritious, flavorful and colorful. No pretensions or politics, just inspiring, clear and artfully simple recipes. This is a book that celebrates the beauty and flavor of vegetables, and even my kids like it! Rating: - Preparing vegetarian meals has become a joy.I have struggled with vegetarian receipes for years until I discovered this marvelous book. Rating: - what every cookbook should beNot only are the recipes delicious and relatively simple, but the author tells you how to make types of dishes, such as risotto and polenta. And, if you follow his instructions, by George, it turnes out perfectly. I never made either risotto or polenta before, and now I make them all the time. I've given this book as a gift twice and probably will give it again. Rating: - ExquisiteJack Bishop reveals himself as a culinary genius when it comes to flavorful vegetarian cooking. Not many of the various cookbooks I own deserve a five star rating, but this one definitely ranks in the upper echelons. The recipes provide full-flavored and well-rounded meals by drawing on very short shopping lists. Bishop has made me one very happy vegetarian who always comes back to his book to discover some new, exciting flavors. I can recommend this cookbook without any reservations to anyone. Rating: - my secreti was going to say that this was my own private secret cookbook that no one knows about. but clearly this is not the case. this is quite simply a great cookbook. i'm slowly working my way from cover to cover, and the recipes are great. but i have one caution, a few other reviews state that these are low-fat recipes, and there are low fat ones in here, but many of them contain up to a quarter cup of olive oil, leading to the rich and wonderful sauces italian cooking is famous for, but are probably not low fat, even without the meat. you can usually cut down if you need to, but you won't get the same kind of flavor. |
