best book I've bought for soy recipes

very well written and the recipes are very tasty. I'm trying to replace meat in my diet and there are many recipes that taste just like meat, such as meatless tacos p.191 made with soy crumbles, tofu stir fry p.258.
I actually use this cookbook more than any other. It goes way beyond just addding tofu to vegetables to create gourmet healthy meals.
I also highly reccomend The Soy Zone book by B. Sears to explain why soy is so important a factor in living healthier.

A great book for anyone interested in learning about soy!

While I'm sure that hard-core vegetarians and other food purists will complain about this book, which contains a few recipes containing eggs, dairy products, as well as meat and fish, this is a superb book for anyone wishing to learn more about soy foods. This book is especially useful for cooks, like me, who eat meat, but who are interested in exploring ways to add economical and nutritious soy foods to their families' diets. With careful descriptions and explanations of a broad range of soy foods, from miso to tofu to tempeh and everything in between, this book offers recipes for many meals and occasions, using easy-to-understand and easy-to-follow instructions. Substitutions are often suggested, and most of the recipes can be created from ingredients readily obtainable in most supermarkets. The recipes are both imaginative and tasty. I'd recommend this book wholeheartedly to anyone who loves to cook and is interested in alternative sources of protein.
