Excellent for veg's and non-veg's alike

I bought this cookbook as a gift for my vegetarian friend (she enjoys several recipes out of the version I have, "How to Cook Everything") - but I found myself wanting a copy after leafing through it before I wrapped it! He's updated several recipes found in the original "How to Cook Everything" and added some truly delicious takes to replace the standard "meat and potatoes" sections of his other book. Can't wait to get my own copy.

The Vegetarian Book I Was Looking For

I have had this book for a couple of weeks and I have already cooked from it several times. I have marked a ton of recipes that I want to try. The first recipe I tried was the "Stuck Pot Rice". I followed his instructions to the letter and it came out nearly perfect which is unusual... it WAS a little greasy but still delicious and very different. I also have Deborah Madison's Vegetarian Cooking For Everyone and while I like her book, this one is more suited to my taste and so it will probably get more use. I think most people would probably prefer one book over the other. I think Madison's book would appeal more to a strict vegetarian than Bittman's, and Bittman's book would probably appeal more to those who eat eggs and dairy. I think if you have one book and don't care for it, you should definitely check out the other one. Personally, I am not a vegetarian. I just want to limit my consumption of meat, and for me this book fit the bill. I also tend to get bored of the same old ways of preparing my favorite vegetables so it's great to flip through this book for new ideas. Overall, I think it's great. I recommend it.

How to Cook Everything Vegetarian

The absolutely best cookbook I have ever owned. It is wonderful for not just vegetarians, but anyone who is wanting to cook or just get started. Highly recommended.

vegetarian, but not necessarily healthy

I bought this book hoping to find lots of healthy, fat/sodium-conscious recipes. Unfortunately, many of the recipes rely on fats (butter, cream, cheese, oil) to enhance the flavor of the veggies. There are many great tips/tricks and recipes in the book, but I'll be returning it and looking for a cookbook with a lower-fat, lower-sodium slant on vegetarian cuisine.
