Joy of Vegetarian Cooking

[Guest guest]

Today we stopped at a new bookstore and I had a chance to look through many

cookbooks that I had been reading about. For the first time I saw Joy of

Cooking : All About Vegetarian Cooking (Joy of Cooking) by Irma S.

Rombauer, Marion Rombauer Becker, Ethan Becker. Karen G. saw this book at

Amazon.com month's ago and pointed it out to me.

 

This vegetarian cookbook is part of a new series of cookbooks. The

publisher's divided the recipes from the Joy of Cooking (I'm assuming the

latest version because Becker is listed as an author) and then put them in

several smaller cookbooks. Others might have been pasta, soups, etc--I

didn't pay much attention to them. Each book is on glossy paper and has

many color photos. The vegetarian book has about 100 recipes from the Joy

of Cooking plus lots of cooking charts and tips. It lists for $19.95. I

looked at it and then returned it to the shelf. Atlantic Bookstore had the

full Joy for $12.95.

my two cents: I have the Joy of Cooking full ( meat included) cookbook- and

I use it sooooo often, that I wouldn't even think of buying the vegetarian

one. It's the perfect cook book to start cooking with. If you don't know how

to boil an egg- it's in there.. If you're making you're first apple pie-

it's in there ( bets apple pie ever) , my favorite lasagna- adapted to a

vegetarian recipe from a recipe in that book... have some extra mangoes you

don't know what to do with?- you'll find something in there. it has all

types of ethnic foods too- and all grains- like kumut, wheat berries,

quinoa...I think I use this book more than my carnivorous friends! And for

those of you still on fish- this explains everything about fish, which are

interchangeable, etc... It's like a cooking bible. It even has lists of fat,

colories, etc for many common foods...like a slice of cheese, or a bananna!

It's a great christmas gift idea if any of you have kids or cousins, friends

or whatever just moving into their own apartment. No - I don't get paid by

these people.. haha- it's just the one book I wouldn't be without.
