Review
"The Complete Guide to Vegan Food Substitutions is a phenomenal guidebook and cookbook. It reveals exactly how to replace any ingredient in any recipe. The results aren't just stellar - they're better than the 'real' thing!" --Rory Freedman - author of number 1 New York Times bestseller Skinny Bitch
"A tremendously useful resource"
--John Robbins, author of The New Good Life, The Food Revolution and Diet for a New America
This must be the first cookbook of its kind. I've never heard of anything or seen anything like it before.
--planetveggie.co.uk, April 2011
This book is your secret weapon to turning any recipe imaginable into a deliciously "veganized" success- no guesswork or hard labor involved.
--OM Yoga & Lifestyle Magazine, June 2011
A book that I feel is well worth a read.

As a fairly new vegan baker with some disasters behind me I bought this book as it looked like just the thing to put me right. I realised that I was doing it all wrong before and by following the information and acually having more of an understanding after reading the book of the principles behind using the various ingredients for different reasons I am now much more successful! This book is a must for anyone wanting to bake and make vegan meals using existing cook books.

This does exactly what it says on the tin - and then some! I've bought numerous books on vegan cooking - but none appeal to my confirmed meat-eating hubby - he simply doesnt do beans or pasta or rice, so adding in some healthy animal free options has been murder. This is clearly laid out, and gives straightforward options for 'animal to veggie' replacements, and oodles of example recipes too! The imitation bacon bits recipe had him totally fooled! Some of the ingredients are american, so you need to be a little creative on the internet to source some of them -or spend time and money in Brighton (my nearest veggie haven). I still cant find 'vital wheat gluten flour' or tempeh - but i'll get there.

As a new vegan, I have found this book invaluable, as I can continue using old, favourite recipes, ones that I thought I would never be able to use again.

This was just what I needed to reuse all the traditional recipe books that I already owned. And also had some great recipes of its own! Particularly like the pb&j dessert

I do love this book and have used it many times now. The Vegan 'Parmesan' sprinkles and Dijon Portobello Steaks are basics I'm always using as is the Soya Milk Mayo. Another good thing is that (unlike a lot of US cookbooks) there are plenty of photos too. My only (tiny) niggle is the index - if you know what you want to make eg the Portobello steak if you look up P for Portobello or S for Steak there is no mention of the recipe as in the index is it is Mains and then under D for Dijon - annoying or what!
Still it's worth buying if you are Vegan (and particularly if you are new to veganism) some of the ingredients might need Googling for UK equivalents ie the word Meal us used as in Almond Meal where we call is Ground Almonds and also some ingredients can be a bit trickier to find ie Vital Wheat Gluten - which you can buy in the UK I might add.

Good reading for vegans and vegetarians
Although not a vegan, I am vegetarian and find this book very useful.
Some of the substitutions are fairly complicated but then so are meat and fish. Read more
