Beautiful! and Isa does it (again)!
First of all, this is one of the most beautiful cookbooks I have ever seen. It is just generally visually appealing. I always appreciate Isa's cookbooks because they contain recipes that are good, accessible standard type recipes. The recipes, for the most part, contain ingredients you can get in almost any grocery store. The recipes aren't dependent on things like vegan cheese, vegan cream cheese, vegan sour cream, etc, etc. They are just good regular recipes that your brother, grandmother, curmudgeonly uncle and slightly odd neighbor would enjoy. If you think vegan means no fat/oil, no sugar, no soy, no gluten, etc and are offended by the sight of even 1 recipe with the above in them, then you might want to look elsewhere. On the other hand, there are plenty of lower fat, limited sugar, soy free and gluten free recipes. From glancing and the desserts, they are pretty standard desserts using things you would expect such as sugar and flour. I have made about 15 recipes or so and they are all delicious. My top recommendations would be: Harira with Eggplant & Chickpeas Cheddary Broccoli Soup Chicky Tuna Salad Sandwiches Sunflower Mac Coconut Chana Saag Incan Smokey Stew Roasted Butternut Alfredo Sweet potato gnocchi with Seared Brussels Sprouts & Tarragon cream (time consuming but worth it) Overall, just another good solid book. Highly recommended.
