A gorgeous Vegan cookbook,
By A Customer
This review is from: Vegan Feasts: Essential Vegetarian Collection (Paperback)
VEGAN FEASTS is a gorgeous book that will soon convince you that vegans don't just eat brown rice and lentils. The book is full of numerous recipes for soup, dips/dressings, snacks, main meals, desserts, cakes and biscuits. The recipes are easy to follow and the ingredients are relatively easy to find. The only drawback is that there are no photos, but there are so many recipes in this book that it is excellent value for money. This is the ideal book for a new vegan or anyone who has to cook for a vegan. Anyone who has had to cut dairy products out of their diet will also find this book useful as it teaches you about dairy-free alternatives that you can use in your cooking.

Generally a good book for beginners and more experienced Vegan cooks,
By
This review is from: Vegan Feasts: Essential Vegetarian Collection (Paperback)
This area is outside my remit, so I drafted in a Vegan friend for her comments on this book. She described it as the equivalent of `Nigella Express', i.e. fullest flavour without the effort!
Possibly not the best title for this book, as in the use of the word 'Feasts', and it is true to say that the recipes do use 'Vegan' variations of ingredients, e.g.:- Vegan mayo/cheese slices/margarine, chocolate or soya milk/cream and some do advise checking the ingredients list of each product, e.g. gravy powder to check that it is meat-free. So, perhaps, a bit of work to be done on the shopping side before commencing cooking, but worth it in the long run! She felt that it is a good mix of recipes both for one starting out on this road, i.e. a book that includes basics to show the would-be Vegan that their diet need not consist solely of 'nut cutlets' and 'lentils' and more ambitious dishes aimed at those who are well experienced and looking for a few new ideas. Some ingredient lists are indeed `long-ish' but simply add to the overall flavour. 176 matt pages, split over 12 chapters:- * Soups * Dips * Sandwiches and Bread-based Snacks * Salads, Dressings and Appetizers * Sauces * Pastry Dishes * Pasta Dishes * Legume Dishes * Grain and Nut Dishes * Potato Dishes * Desserts * Scones, Cakes and Cookies with an introduction, a section on 'eating healthily and well', which includes notes on how to meet the daily nutritional requirements of a Vegan diet and an index. Each chapter opens with relevant text. Each recipe is well laid out with an opening note, the title, number of servings, list of ingredients and the method. On the negative side there are line illustrations throughout but NO photographs, which may prove slightly negative to those who enjoy that side of a cookery book. Recipes include:- * Creamy Potato and Onion Soup * Tuscan Bean Soup * Crudités * Vegan Sandwich Filling ideas * Gomasio (includes a junior version) * Mushroom Pāté with Porcini * Coleslaw * Fresh Tomato Sauce * Béchamel Sauce * Flaky Potato Pie * Samosas * Piecrust * Quiches * Easy Pizza * Pasta Dishes * Dal * Lentil Dishes * Wild Rice with Chestnuts * Tabbouleh * Creamy Nut Korma * Baked Potatoes with Vegan Toppings * Rosti with Spring Onions * Vegan Cream * Peaches in Wine * Instant Vegan Raspberry Ice * Chocolate Mousse * Rhubarb Crumble * Steamed Syrup Pudding * Christmas Pudding * Vegan Sponge Layer Cake * Classic FlapJacks

absolutely essential vegan cook book,
By JanieH (Brixton, London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vegan Feasts: Essential Vegetarian Collection (Paperback)
this book is essential to all vegans, and anyone who might ever want to cook vegan food. all the recipes are simple, ingredients can be found in any supermarket, and they're foolproof! lots of old veggie faves such as lasagne, hummus and various salad. also many more interesting recipes. also has some great recipes for vegan cakes that don't taste as if they're vegan!
