"[N]ovice cooks can whip up healthful, flavorful meals in record time. Lemlin's latest, which emphasizes simple preparations and nutritious (e.g., low-fat, whole grain) ingredients, is as useful now as it was 25 years ago." --Library Journal "Jeanne Lemlin has always been one of my favorite vegetarian authors. There is so much variety and flavor in Jeanne's simple seasonal preparations that I could cook a different vegetarian meal every night of the week." --Sara Moulton, host of the PBS show Sara's Weeknight Meals and author of Sara Moulton's Everyday Family Dinners "In a crowded field of vegetarian cookbooks, Lemlin's stands out for straightforward good food." --Newsweek "Lemlin's food is quick and comforting, the kind you're always in the mood to eat." --Washington Post "This is a compendium of hearty vegetarian fare with a relaxed approach to cooking and a particularly noteworthy extended section on desserts." --CSMonitor.com "The easy recipes are alive with flavor and zest. Whether one is a vegetarian is incidental. This book inspires a new and fresh direction for home cooking." --Marion Cunningham, author of The Fanny Farmer Cookbook "It takes enormous culinary flair and expertise, good sense, and also courage to marry the tastes of different cultures in a way that really works. Jeanne Lemlin has achieved this brilliantly." --Claudia Roden, author of The Food of Spain "All the elements are intelligently related to one another to give an overall sense of focus and balance to the meal . . . and convey a sense of cooking which is flexible and relaxed." --Deborah Madison, author of Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone and Local Flavors: Cooking and Eating from America's Farmers' Markets "The recipes are light, flavorful, varied, and drawn from many international cuisines. I was especially happy to see desserts that no dessert lover could resist. Jeanne Lemlin really knows what tastes good." --Richard Sax, author of From the Farmer's Market
Reseña del editor:
This book is the cookbook for anyone who loves sophisticated food and hopes to forgo meat either permanently or just on occasion. Pioneering vegetarian cookbook author Jeanne Lemlin, who has been vegetarian since she was 15, comes back to her very first book - "Vegetarian Pleasures: A Menu Cookbook", originally published by Judith Jones at Knopf in 1986 - to create this completely new edition. Lemlin's recipes are for busy cooks who want delicious food from readily available ingredients and no-fuss prep methods. Fresh vegetables, fruits, grains, and beans are the key components of these recipes, and they are transformed into meatless fare that appeals to vegetarians as well as dedicated carnivores. Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower and Jalapenos, Fragrant Vegetable Stew with Corn Dumplings, and Raspberry Almond Torte are just a few examples of Lemlin's tantalizing recipes. And she guides cooks through everyday and special-occasion cooking by offering menu suggestions, helping new vegetarians avoid the "plateful of sides" dilemma and giving seasoned cooks new ideas for entertaining.
