Book Reviews of Vegetarian Sushi (Essential Kitchen Series)
Book Review: Beautiful, Informative Book
Summary: 5 Stars
Some of the reviewers of this book marked it down because it contains recipes that require fish products. In my opinion this is very unfair. Not all vegetarians are vegans, and some do in fact eat fish as well as eggs and cheese. Rating this book low because it contains recipes for foods you don't eat would be like me rating Joy of Cooking only one star because it has recipes for pork, squirrel, and bear meat, none of which I eat. Neither do I eat shellfish, which is one reason why I was so happy to find this book. Japanese cooking makes extensive use of all manner of sea creatures which would not be something I would eat, so I must either overlook or adapt many recipes in most cookbooks dealing with Japanese cuisine. With this one I can use every one!
If you are vegan, then yes, there are some recipes in here you could not use, such as the omelet sushi options. As for the essential Japanese stock/seasoning dashi, which contains bonito, a fish, the author recommends leaving out the bonito and doubling the seaweed component as a fish-free alternative. I do imagine this would make a change in the flavor, but probably not a fatal one. When one has dietary restrictions, one is used to such adaptations. But however strictly you practice your vegetarianism, there is something in here for you.
If you are not a vegetarian, the author includes suggestions for seafood variations, both fish and shellfish, so you are bound to find something you would like to try.
This book is beautiful and has many wonderful ideas and options for many types of sushi. It has ingredient lists, equipment lists, and even lovely garnishing ideas, as well as instructions on making perfect rice for sushi. The color photos are inspiring, the instructions are clear and detailed. I recommend it.
