Jeanne Lemlin’s three books, Quick Vegetarian Pleasures, Main Course Vegetarian Pleasures, and Simple Vegetarian Pleasures, have set the standard for flavorful, accessible, and healthful meatless cooking. With Vegetarian Classics, she offers the essential vegetarian cookbook: a comprehensive collection of over 300 no-fail recipes, plus a glossary of key ingredients and helpful sidebars on tips and techniques. This book provides the very best renditions of such classic meatless dishes as Vegetarian Chili, Pasta Puttanesca, and Szechuan Braised Tofu and Eggplant, as well as updated recipes for new favorites like Broccoli and Smoked Cheese Calzone, Pad Thai, and Marzipan Peach Pie. More than a recipe book, Vegetarian Classics teaches readers how to bring their cooking to the next level by making stocks, bread crumbs, roasted peppers, and other ingredients from scratch. Whether readers are full-time vegetarians or simply cooks looking for easy, delicious recipes, Vegetarian Classics will elevate their every-night fare from ordinary to exceptional.
