The Essential Vegetarian Cookbook New softcover recipe book
THE ESSENTIAL VEGETARIAN
by Wendy Stephen, Deirdre Blayney and Jane Price
New large softcover cookbook, published 2007. 304 pages
Vegetarian fare is no longer regarded as a poor relation on the restaurant menu, and no more regarded as the province of the brown-rice-and-lentils brigade. Our eating habits have evolved to such a point that, in fact, many of us live on a virtually meat-free diet without considering ourselves strict vegetarians - and not because of a particular philosophy or for reasons of health or economy. Today's widespread interest in food and cooking, our discovery of the infinite range of non-meat dishes from other lands, and the seemingly daily increase in the variety of vegetables, grains, nuts and pulses now available, have combined to make vegetarian cooking exciting and innovative and, simultaneously, extended our appreciation of good food.
