Fantastic shelf resource -- one potentially non-vegetarian ingredient though

This is by no means criticism of the book. I have found it to be a fantastic reference and a place to go for new creative ideas. The organization of the book makes it very easy to get creative with base receipes, which is a godsend.

My note of caution is that the recipes list Worcestershire sauce as an ingredient. Vegetarians (or those cooking for vegetarians) need to be aware that standard Worcestershire contains anchovies -- so look for a fish-free or vegetarian labeled variety.

Where was this book when I first became vegetarian over 17 years ago! It will be my wedding gift when my two children get married.

a necessity for the vegetarian kitchen

Having been a vegetarian for over twenty years, I have perused and purchased many a cookbook. This is one of the few I would call indispensable. The book lives up to its title. Every single thing I have made from it thus far is delicious. Vegetarians sometimes run the risk of resorting to the same meal choices. Bittman's book solves the problem of vegetarian boredom. He also suggests vegan options, and emphasizes world cuisine.

Better than expected!

I have several other classic vegetarian cookbooks and this one is a fantastic addition. Bittman's writing style makes everything accessible and everything is demystified. I particularly like his treatments of proteins - tofu, tempeh, etc. I've had this cookbook for 2 weeks and have already made 5 new recipes. Every page is valuable.

Great for new cooks!

I've had this book for about nine months now and I still use it almost everyday. I never really enjoyed cooking, but when I quit eating meat, I felt like it was time to finally learn. I tried several different cookbooks, but this was the one that finally got me cooking and loving it! Best cookbook ever!
