The Voluptuous Vegan : More Than 200 Sinfully Delicious Recipes for Meatless, Eggless, and Dairy-FreeMeals Average Customer Review: Paperback (24 October, 2000) list price: $18.00 -- our price: $12.24 (price subject to change: see help) US | Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France Editorial Review Sound like an oxymoron? Myra Kornfeld argues that choosing to be a vegan does not mean you have to deprive yourself--rather, you can pamper your palate with luscious, healthy food. There are those who advocate salt-free, fat-free, flavor-free food, but Kornfeld sets the record straight right from the beginning. She uses salt for seasoning, and reminds us, thank goodness, that you need fat in a healthy diet. Clear instructions, a chapter on ingredients (including sections on grains, greens, and beans--how to buy them, cook them, and use them), and a short primer on equipment make this a good book for beginners. More accomplished cooks will appreciate Kornfeld's innovation. She isn't afraid to use herbs and spices, and she knows the capabilities of her ingredients. In a simple Rich Stock recipe, for instance, she calls for celery root, and explains in a note that you can substitute celery, but that the root gives a much deeper flavor. Kornfeld's food is voluptuous in presentation, too: Smoky Chestnut and Sweet Potato Soup calls for a dash of rum, and it's served with toasted, chopped hazelnuts and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg; Hominy, Tomatillo, and Squash Stew is topped with Ginger and Lime Cream made from tofu; and a Fennel, Orange, and Pomegranate Salad is so beautiful and the flavor so complex, you'll swear you're eating four-star cuisine. The book is a little difficult to navigate, as it's divided into "meals." So if all you're looking for is a side dish, you'll need to set some time aside to peruse the whole book. Every recipe starts with a few words of wisdom, usually information on the ingredients or a description of the final product. The final chapter is on desserts, and here Kornfeld really gets voluptuous. The recipes include Cranberry Orange Tart, Chocolate Pudding Tart, and Lemon Pudding Cake with Blueberry Glaze--there's no depriving anyone of anything here! Vegans will appreciate the creative and inventive approach, but this cookbook is also useful for nonvegans. Everyone knows someone who's trying to avoid meat, dairy, or eggs, and with loads of ideas for light meals and interesting side dishes, we can entertain our friends and eat healthy at the same time. --Leora Y.

Millennium Cookbook: Extraordinary Vegetarian Cuisine Average Customer Review: Paperback (01 October, 1998) list price: $19.95 -- our price: $13.57 (price subject to change: see help) US | Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France Editorial Review Millennium, arguably the best vegetarian restaurant in San Francisco, finally shares its secrets. If you've never been to Millennium, forget the stereotype of a vegetarian restaurant serving bean sprouts, brown rice, and seaweed. Millennium, a true gourmet restaurant, presents elegant, innovative, inspired cuisine that happens to be as healthy as it is delicious. This book entices the accomplished cook to explore exquisite dishes that will surprise and delight any dinner party--even if your guests are not vegetarians. Try appetizers like Cabbage and Shiitake-Filled Spring Rolls with Plum Sauce, or Grilled Portobellos with Herb-Tofu Aioli and Red Onion Marmalade. Experience the Indian-inspired Baked Madras-Glazed Tofu with Saffron Basmati Pilaf and Peach-Lime Chutney, or the Curry-Crusted Tempeh with Pomegranate Sauce. You won't want to skip dessert: Chocolate-Almond Midnight will indulge even the most finicky chocoholic. Some of the dishes are simple to prepare, but most are intricate and time consuming and include subrecipes, making this book best for artistic cooks who revel in new, inventive recipes. For example, the recipe for luscious Moroccan Filo Crescents with Curried Golden Tomato Sauce (only 21 percent fat, despite the filo) takes more than a page, and references three other recipes. All recipes are vegan--no meat, eggs, or dairy--and most are very low in fat. Nutritional breakdown is provided for each recipe, and the food photos are gorgeous. The Millennium Cookbook is an impeccable gift for the inspired cook in your life. --Joan Price ... Read more Reviews (18)
These are far from hum-drum recipes - the chefs at Millennium are very daring with their ingredient combinations and when cooking from this book you end up with wonderful meals that are full of very complex and rich flavours.

Microplane Fine Grater Average Customer Review: Kitchen list price: $14.95 US | Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France Editorial Review For finely minced garlic or ginger this is the perfect grater. The cutters are especially sharp, which guarantees easy grating. But this also means you'll need to exercise extra caution--no one likes grated knuckles. For ease in resting the grater on the counter while in use, there's a hard acrylic frame around the metal. The frame also prevents scratches to your countertop. The large handle allows for a firm grip, and the slightly curved grating surface makes it easy to use with oddly shaped chunks of ginger or garlic cloves. It's also an excellent choice for microshreds of citrus zest. --Jill Lightner ... Read more Features Reviews (14)
Highly recommended if you wash dishes by hand, otherwise stick to the molded handle without the acrylic, (which disintegrated in the dishwasher). ... Read more Asin: B00004S7VK |

Pyrex 6-Piece Rectangular Storage Deluxe Set Average Customer Review: Kitchen list price: $19.99 US | Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France Editorial Review Safe in the oven, microwave, refrigerator, freezer, and dishwasher, Pyrex is a special glass that withstands the shock of going from hot to cold, or vice versa, without breaking. This set consists of 1-7/8-cup, 5-cup, and 3-quart rectangular dishes, all with plastic covers. The covers have big handles for easy removal; an interlocking design so you can stack the dishes; and vents that evacuate excess air when the dishes are used for storage and let steam escape when the dishes are used in a microwave oven. (While the dishes are safe in any oven, the covers can only be used in a microwave.) Perfect for cooking, serving, and storage, the dishes are nonreactive (useful for acidic marinades) as well as stain- and odor-proof, and come with a two-year warranty against breakage from oven heat. --Fred Brack ...

Fleetwood Mac: Greatest Hits Average Customer Review: Audio CD (25 October, 1990) list price: $18.98 -- our price: $13.99 (price subject to change: see help) US | Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France Editorial Review These are the greatest hits of the version of Big Mac that produced Hits with a capital H! While pre-Stevie Nicks-Lindsey Buckingham versions of the group charted in the U.K. five times between 1968 and 1973, the post-blues-rock edition of the band reached unprecedented commercial heights beginning with "Rhiannon," a No. 5 smash in the spring of 1976. It's on this 16-track solid-gold set, along with the rest of the hits up through 1988's "Everywhere." A long version of "Sara" and some bonus tracks are included for extra value. --Steven Stolder ...

150 Vegan Favorites: Fresh, Easy, and Incredibly Delicious Recipes You Can Enjoy Every Day Average Customer Review: Paperback (25 March, 1998) list price: $14.95 -- our price: $10.17 (price subject to change: see help) US | Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France Reviews (30)
This author does sometimes tend to the spicy - i.e. Jay's Mondo Chili includes chili powder, cumin, paprika, AND Tabasco! And he does use a lot of different types of chilis in his recipes (New Mexico, poblano, jalapeno, serrano), some of which I don't know where to find. Overall, however, I do find this book has survived the test of time in that several years after I bought it, I still turn to it to try something new, or to re-make a previously enjoyed dish.
