THE CRANKS BIBLE is the definitive classic collection of Nadine Abensur's recipes for Cranks. Drawing on a breadth of knowledge of meat-free cooking, Nadine creates over 200 recipes in tune with today's style for lighter, healthier eating. There are anecdotes about the most important ingredients used, as well as handy tips on cooking techniques and how to find and buy the freshest produce. THE CRANKS BIBLE is packed with tasty treats and thematic ideas, from Spinach Soup and Mile High Pie to Fresh Fig and Port Sorbet. Above all, this book is about good cooking for the 21st century, and about eating healthily and well - and enjoying the process of making mouth-watering food.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for "Veggies", 8 May 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Cranks Bible: A Timeless Collection of Vegetarian Recipes (Hardcover)
This is a recipe book that will not be gathering dust at the back of my bookshelf. Instead it will end up dog eared and stained and proud of it -just as any decent cook book worth its salt should be. This book makes a mouthwatering read and has beautiful photography. The recipes are not the usual, they work and whats more there are lots of them. Enough to keep the keen and eager vegetarian cook busy for a long time. I am no 'hardcore' vegetarian (and my family certainly are not) but I do prefer vegetarian food and am keen on cooking with fresh and seasonal food. This book is great for cooks who are feeling a little jaded - it has lots of new ideas. My family have loved everything from the book so far and that is why I am happy to make this recommendation.

5.0 out of 5 stars The cookbook I never leave home without!, 2 Dec 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Cranks Bible: A Timeless Collection of Vegetarian Recipes (Hardcover)
Nadine writes unabashedly sexy recipes! This is one of my favorite cook books of all time, along with Cranks Fast Food. My father said of Nadine's chermoula, "this is a life-affirming sauce"! I think that all of Nadine's recipes are life affirming. I just made her Irish Soda Bread last night, and it was delicious. I recommend this book for anyone who is interested in expanding their culinary repetoire.
One of my favorite recipes in the book is the one for Celeriac "boullaibaise" (did I spell that right?): it takes some prep work, but it's worth it!

I've read the book probably 3 times through from cover to cover-- the pictures are gorgeous and her descriptions are charming and funny. If you want a book to get you inspired about cooking with less meat, or to get you inspired about cooking mediterranean/middle eastern/north african cuisine, without the intimidation factor, I highly recommend Cranks' Bible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, 24 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Cranks Bible: A Timeless Collection of Vegetarian Recipes (Paperback)
Nadine Abensur is a genius. I love this book and have read it from cover to cover several times. I also use it all the time. Every recipie I have tried has worked and even ones that seem a bit strange taste divine. I would say it is more for the advanced cook but Nadine's passion and enthusiasm for cooking and food in totally infectious.

A must for everyone, vegetarian or not!
