Vegetarian Cookbook

by Kathi
(Thrown Together Meals)

The How to Cook Everything Vegetarian cookbook, by Mark Bittman, is the ultimate one-stop resource for meatless meals. Refreshingly straightforward and filled with illustrated recipes, this is a book that puts vegetarian cuisine within the reach of every home cook.

Please note: This page is about the 2007 cookbook with this name by this author, not the older (and not nearly as good) 2003 version with a yellow cover.

Types of Recipes Included

There are a wealth of recipes (1200!) in this cookbook, that don't scream vegetarian. There are also plentiful guidelines to make cooking vegetarian as intuitive as cooking with meat. Like his now classic How to Cook Everything, this book opens with terrifically useful, straightforward discussions of essential ingredients, appliances and techniques, which Bittman builds on throughout in to-the-point sidebars and illustrated boxes. The recipes flow thick and fast in his theme-and-variations style.
