Product Details


Product Description

Amazon.ca

It's a daunting resolution for anyone who loves food to renounce engrained eating habits and embrace an animal-free diet. How It All Vegan! co-authors Tanya Barnard and Sarah Kramer were themselves "lazy vegetarians" who eventually made the leap from lactose to legumes. Their charmingly personal compilation of animal-free recipes is mainly a transitional cookbook, chock full of flavourful, creature-friendly recipes such as lentil "burgers," "Cajun Jerky," and "cheese" perogies, all designed to encourage the adoption of a vegan diet. Chapters feature 1950s "daddy-o" advertising stills, with subjects ranging from "Veganism 101"--its directions spotlight what to do "If Mum Gets Worried"--to instructions for animal-free health, beauty, and household products. With appendices and indices elucidating "Vegan No-Nos" (honey is "for bees, made by bees") and Imperial/Metric conversions, How It All Vegan! is certainly sweeping in its gentle persuasion. Ultimately, though, it comes down to the reader. Are Barnard and Kramer preaching to the converted--those that covet flax oil on that baked potato, two psyllium husks over easy? Yeah, maybe. But any non-vegan reader open to the graceful appeal of How It All Vegan! may just decide that hummus is where their heart is. --Tony Mason


From Booklist

Vegans avoid not simply meat, but all animal products including dairy. This diet can be problematic unless it's carefully controlled to be sure that all necessary protein components are present. Barnard and Kramer recount their own roads to veganism, one as a matter of personal choice, the other as a way out of chronic disease. The authors suggest substitutes for animal products and recommend ways to ensure that one consumes sufficient proteins and vitamins while following a vegan regime. Recipes present few surprises, relying on tofu and other soy products as textural components and substitutes for meats and dairy products. Keeping in mind that many cosmetics are based on animal products or tested on animals, the authors offer some helpful recipes for these beauty enhancers as well. Mark Knoblauch

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT Where It All Vegan, Nov 24 2001
By David S. Dever (leander, tx United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Listen up! I'm a mother of three young children, all of a sudden veganized six months ago and had to start from scratch. I've purchased most of the vegan cookbooks and am now thinking of writting my own, quite frankly because I feel most of these books need new ground. This particular one gave me many, many unhappy memories with unsuccessful results. Even after many tries of a few of their recepies, they kept turning out a --disaster, and wasted ingredients and time. I believe their recepies are ok-- with a little adjustment. They seem to keep forgeting something from a few important ones (like whipped cream without tofu, and pumpkin pie without tofu). They sound good and ALMOST work. Like I said, if you can adjust it, it might work, if not, you're out of luck. In addition, the authors are quite young and child-less, at printing. They have a section about kidddie food, but don't give it much credence. The doggie biscuit, however, is very good. Give it a try- but the vegan Bible it is NOT! This aint where it all vegan.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best cookbook I've seen by far - vegan or otherwise, Jan 6 2008
I have never been very skilled in the kitchen. I have picked up any number of cookbooks, and been immediately overwhelmed by the crazy-long lists of ingredients, oddball ingredients I knew I'd never use again, skipped steps where they just assume you know how to poach things or similar, and complex and involved directions. For more years than I care to admit (I'm in my 30's), this has caused me to put the book down and once again postpone learning to cook. And the times when I tried anyway I have cooked up some serious disasters. I can't even express how embarrassing this all is.

After going vegan, I thought I was first going to have to learn how to do all the cooking processes I never learned, and then learn how to modify everything to make it vegan. So I knew I should do it but dreaded the process even more.

This book is full of simple but delicious recipes. It assumes nothing and gives you detailed instructions starting with the very basics. The ingredients are mostly common stuff like baking powder, apple sauce, and similar... the only exception I can think of being nutritional yeast, which is still a common ingredient when it comes to vegan dishes and easily found at most health food stores. There's a wide variety of recipes in there but I found that if I stocked up on some core ingredients, I had a base from which I could make a good portion of the dishes on a whim, without making a special trip to the market for needed items.

For the first time in my life, I am making yummy food at home, from scratch, without assistance! I am proving to myself and others that I can cook after all. And I've learned that you don't need prior cooking knowledge - you can learn to cook vegan to begin with, and then you won't have to un-learn anything else.

This book has helped me immensely, and really changed the way I think about cooking and being vegan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yummers!, Jan 6 2007
By Skinartia (Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada) - See all my reviews
I now have the whole trilogy of Sarah Kramer's books (and consequently the duo that Tanya Barnard co-wrote) and this one is the cookbook of the three that I always go back to. The chili recipe is to die for! If you only want to get one of the trilogy (though I recommend you get them all!), this is the one you should get.
