    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book July 31 2002
    By A Customer
    Format:Paperback
    I am not actually a vegan, but I try to limit dairy.. I like this book it does not include meat analogs which I do not like. Everything we have tried so far is delicious and tasty. I would highly recommend this book at an "everyday" cookbook. I don't own a pressure cooker, but she give you directions for both!
    Great book, highly recommended

    5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite Cookbook! May 9 2000
    By Vegan Foodie
    Format:Paperback
    If I could only keep one of my cookbooks, this would probably be the one. A wonderful cookbook for anyone, especially (but not only) vegetarians, vegans and those who wants to eat less animal products. Delicious and practical.

    This book got me hooked on using a pressure cooker (though you don't need one to use it) and I now use the pressure cooker all the time! I liked this book so much I even wrote to the author to ask what pressure cooker to get, and the Magafesa, which she recommended, is a delight to use, entirely safe, and super-fast. But you don't need to own a pressure cooker to benefit from this mouthwatering recipes here.

    This book was orginally published in hardcover as RECIPES FROM AN ECOLOGICAL KITCHEN so if you are searching for that book you have just found it. I truly envy those who are about to discover this wonderful cookbook for the first time.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable! Feb 24 2009
    By Giovanni
    Format:Paperback
    Everything we have made from this book has turned out amazingly well. The pressure cooker versions of each recipe feature staggeringly short cooking times but we've found that the stovetop instructions are also quick and pretty easy to follow. The recipes feature a wide variety of ingredients and do not depend on soy products as so many vegetarian cookbooks do - I am not a vegetarian so I find that meat "alternatives" are usually gross, here ingredients are allowed to shine for what they are, not merely as substitutions. The index and overall design make it easy to navigate and the text is just the right size. Our cupboard of dried beans has been sitting there for years because I couldn't find reliable, thorough info about soaking and cooking times - with this book we're finally ready to start getting to them ... the included charts are perfect! Sass has struck a delicate balance between familiar and new territory - most of the ingredients were already in our cupboards but have never been combined like this. This is absolutely the best book that I have seen on the subject, it quickly took pride of place on our shelf beside The Joy of Cooking and The Spice and Herb Bible; it's become indispensable!
