Abrams Fake Meat

I own a lot of cookbooks. This is in my top 5, easily. Peanut Lime Tempeh Wings, Rogan Josh curry, Roast Turki sandwiches, Sheet Pan Tandoori Chick'n, and more can be found in this book. The directions are easy to follow, as they always are in Isa's books. I make the Rogan Josh at least once a month for work lunches because the flavors stay so good in the fridge over time. The Chick'n Cacciatore is fancy and full of vegetables and easier than you might think. The Sausage Oatmeal Pancakes are a staple for me. There's an entire chapter on nondairy cheeses. There's even a Beef Wellington-esque recipe for Madame Beefington, which is time and ingredient intensive but delicious and worth the effort if you want to impress yourself.While many of the recipes use some form of seitan that's meant to taste like a particular protein like beef or turkey, there are also plenty of recipes in here that use tofu, tempeh, and other foods like mushrooms to get the right texture and taste without the time and effort that seitan takes. There are a few ingredients that are a bit out there, like beet powder, but I don't mind. Beet powder is mostly for color anyway.I have most of Isa's cookbooks and this one might be my favorite. This is so good!

When Isa Chandra Moskowitz drops a new book, I grab it without bothering to read a single review, not even so much as flipping through it to check it over first, she's that good! I learned to make seitan for the very first time soon after becoming vegan 12 years ago with her recipe from her website, and immediately bought every book he had written after tasting it. She's truly an icon of the vegan community.

Beautiful book. Lovely recipes with lots of photos.

Conosco l'autrice ed ho già acquistato altri suoi libri. Ricette molto buone, talvolta impegnative.... Per chi vuole sperimentare.

Lots of useful recipes
