Beautiful pictures and helpful directions

There are many worthy vegetarian cookbooks on the market today, and I believe this one provides the greatest pictures of any book out there. Every recipe has a picture, and many ingredients are pictured by themselves. I found this feature wonderfully helpful when I wanted to make a particular recipe: I went to the local Asian market looking for several ingredients, and used this book as a picture dictionary. The recipes themselves are unique, adding fare that I have not seen in other vegetarian cookbooks. The only warning: many of main dishes need at least an hour to prepare. There are salads, soups, and other appetizers that take less time, but this is not a "meal in 30 minutes" kind of book. Bon appetit!

This is the best veggy book I have seen.

I checked this book out of my local library. So much veggy food all looks the same, this book wowed me. I stick post it notes on the pages I plan to use. 33 recipes looked good enough to try. In most cook books, if I get 3 or 4 good recipes I am glad I bought the book. I returned the book to the library and bought a copy. Good book. Good food
