Book Reviews of Lorna Sass' Short-Cut Vegetarian: Great Taste in No Time
Book Review: everything the title says...and more!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've only had this cookbooka few months and it's already got that worn, loved look to it. I love reading the sidebars for the practical insight and the short-cuts are amazing--the tips on baked potatoes alone made it worth the purchase.
I recommend the White Bean Gazpacho, the Fettucine with Spinach Pesto, and any of the dips/spreads. All recipes are fundamental and easy to modify. (I mistakenly substituted Tahini for Tamari in the Lemony Maple-Mustard Dressing (numerous times) but have received tons of compliments (and admiration) for the dip with pretzels and veggies.)
I love Lorna's style. Here's the "and more" part...if you email her your questions, she emails you back. What great Customer Service!
Summary of Lorna Sass' Short-Cut Vegetarian: Great Taste in No Time
One of America's foremost vegetarian cooks reveals amazing shortcuts to dishes that are short on prep and long on flavor!Instant classics. That's just what vegetarians in a hurry will find in the more than 100 amazingly quick, full-flavored recipes, like Moroccan Carrot Slaw and Thai-Inspired Red Bean Stew, in Lorna Sass' Short-Cut Vegetarian. Sheer culinary magic can be created from a pantry stocked with carefully selected prepared and instant foods, such as homemade curry powder, roasted red peppers, spicy salsas and mustard sauces, and roasted garlic oil. A splash of orange juice, a touch of cinnamon, and a few sliced leeks transform handy frozen spinach and a can of highest-quality lentils into an exotic Orange-Scented Lentil Ragout to satisfy the most sophisticated palate -- in minutes.
Vegetarian magician Lorna Sass pulls another carrot out of the culinary hat with this book. (Of course it's a carrot--this is a vegan cookbook!) This short and snappy book will wow you with Mushroom Barley Soup that cooks in 15 minutes, an almost instant Chickpea Curry, an inspired Vegetable Paella, Tortilla "Sushi," and more. In addition to the recipes, Sass names specific products useful for making speedy, tasty meals and recommends ingredients to keep in the pantry and freezer so there's always something to work with in the house. To prove that quick, good eating doesn't depend on recipes alone, Sass offers time-saving principles: adapt them and you'll quickly move from needing recipes to easily creating your own.
