The ultimate one-stop vegetarian cookbook-from the author of the classic How to Cook Everything

Hailed as "a more hip Joy of Cooking" by the Washington Post, Mark Bittman's award-winning book How to Cook Everything has become the bible for a new generation of home cooks, and the series has more than 1 million copies in print. Now, with How to Cook Everything: Vegetarian, Bittman has written the definitive guide to meatless meals-a book that will appeal to everyone who wants to cook simple but delicious meatless dishes, from health-conscious omnivores to passionate vegetarians.

How to Cook Everything: Vegetarian includes more than 2,000 recipes and variations-far more than any other vegetarian cookbook. As always, Bittman's recipes are refreshingly straightforward, resolutely unfussy, and unfailingly delicious-producing dishes that home cooks can prepare with ease and serve with confidence. The book covers the whole spectrum of meatless cooking-including salads, soups, eggs and dairy, vegetables and fruit, pasta, grains, legumes, tofu and other meat substitutes, breads, condiments, desserts, and beverages. Special icons identify recipes that can be made in 30 minutes or less and in advance, as well as those that are vegan. Illustrated throughout with handsome line illustrations and brimming with Bittman's lucid, opinionated advice on everything from selecting vegetables to preparing pad Thai, How to Cook Everything: Vegetarian truly makes meatless cooking more accessible than ever.

The Best Overview

I use this cookbook almost every single night as a starting point. Rather than recipes where I feel like I need to buy special ingredients or have great planning skills, this book is more of a muse than anything. It teaches you variations in a way that helps open up the kitchen. These days I pick up an ingredient first, and then find out what amazing dish Bittman has in store.

Had to have my own copy

I borrowed this book from the library, and after paying my overdue fine, decided to purchase my own copy. Bittman's recipes are easy to follow and have inspired me to create my own. Our family is now eating a greater variety of vegetables and grains. The grain recipes are especially good.

my new "go to" book

We're not strictly vegetarian but this is my new "go to" book. The recipes are easy to follow and easy to adjust/improvise. Our new thing when discussing dinner is "Let's see what Mark has to say." I use it several times a week and, being a former restaurant owner, I have a lot of cookbooks.

Disappointed

This cookbook contains 0 photos of a completed dish, but it didn't really matter because it is so basic with such simplistic foods that most people wouldn't need to see what garlic bread looks like after it's cooked. I was hoping for more meal planning of healthier and alternative foods and not how to poach an egg or bake a potato. If you never cooked before and have little knowledge of most fruits and vegetables, I would recommend this book. However, if you're looking for a cookbook to help plan healthy meals using recipes more sophisticated than a lettuce, tomato and olive oil salad, I would suggest you keep your $24. I wish I had!

Easy to follow, clear directions, great food!

I bought How to Cook Everything Vegetarian earlier this summer after joinign a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share in a local farm and being inundated with vegetables, some of which I'd never eaten. I mean, fennel? What does one do with that? Well, Bittman to the rescue. Now I know what it is, how to prepare it for cooking and eating, and have recipes to use it in.
