Using only standard kitchen equipment and readily available fruits and vegetables, the author reveals a completely new way to produce deep, rich flavors that convincingly reproduce meat and fish dishes from around the world. See how eggplant can be turned into ground beef; how zucchini can taste like bacon; how carrots can replace pork, and even okra prepared the right way can simulate lobster! The transformation of pomegranate into corned beef is something that you have to taste to believe. This is not just another vegetarian cookbook. The methods here are unlike anything ever published before, based on the author's advanced education in food chemistry and decades of experience in the food industry. If you want to increase fiber, fruits and vegetables in your diet, but just can't give up meat, this is the solution you've been waiting for. This is not just a collection recipes, but also the methodology for how to transform recipes of your own choosing into vegetarian cuisine.
