Fantastic shelf resource -- one potentially non-vegetarian ingredient though September 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is by no means criticism of the book. I have found it to be a fantastic reference and a place to go for new creative ideas. The organization of the book makes it very easy to get creative with base receipes, which is a godsend.
My note of caution is that the recipes list Worcestershire sauce as an ingredient. Vegetarians (or those cooking for vegetarians) need to be aware that standard Worcestershire contains anchovies -- so look for a fish-free or vegetarian labeled variety.
Julie September 21, 2008 Where was this book when I first became vegetarian over 17 years ago! It will be my wedding gift when my two children get married.
a necessity for the vegetarian kitchen September 13, 2008 Having been a vegetarian for over twenty years, I have perused and purchased many a cookbook. This is one of the few I would call indispensable. The book lives up to its title. Every single thing I have made from it thus far is delicious. Vegetarians sometimes run the risk of resorting to the same meal choices. Bittman's book solves the problem of vegetarian boredom. He also suggests vegan options, and emphasizes world cuisine.
Great for new cooks! September 10, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've had this book for about nine months now and I still use it almost everyday. I never really enjoyed cooking, but when I quit eating meat, I felt like it was time to finally learn. I tried several different cookbooks, but this was the one that finally got me cooking and loving it! Best cookbook ever!
Not just for vegetarians! September 7, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
this book has been a lifesaver for me! I've been stuck in a rut, picking out the same vegetables and cooking them the same. This book is so comprehensive and easy, that I have been able to introduce new veggies to my family without the "eeeewwwwww" factor. We've also made our own cheese and the kids loved the tofu recipes. I would definately recommend it to everyone with kids!
