Wonderful Recipes!
I was first introduced to this book by my mother. I copied a few recipes from her book and tried them out at home. They were so yummy and both my four year old and my husband liked them so much I had to purchase the book. It is a standard and a favorite in our house.
boring recipes and BS propaganda
Total waste of money. The recipes are boring, hardly any ingredients; might be okay for someone that has really never cooked international food or wants fast super-simple stuff. Worse, the introduction included a mindless rant against genetically engineered crops, how they will "cause starvation" (I'm still not clear on how disease resistant drought tolerant crop varieties will lead to starvation) and it is all part of a big conspiracy by the big companies. Very unscientific. Some discussion of the topic that included all sides might have been okay, though why this needs to be part of a cookbook is beyond me. This kind of stuff only hurts the image of vegetarians and vegans.
Cooking Around the World
"Global Vegetarian Cooking" is the simplified,almost kid-friendly version of Troth Wells' companion volume "The World in Your Kitchen." It has many of the same recipes as the latter, but with larger print, and big, beautiful color pictures.
"Global Vegetarian Cooking" has some caveats. It doesn't have as many recipes as "World." There are also British measurements and terms,such as "courgettes" for zucchini and "aubergines" for eggplants. It's a family-friendly cookbook, which is a big plus. The recipes aren't too exotic for the table. To her credit, Wells sticks to familiar things like Chinese stir fries,salsa,and guacamole. The recipes are user-friendly. They're also good if you're on a budget.
"Global Vegetarian Cooking" is a delicious trip around the world!
