ok, more theory than recipes

This book has some interesting recipes and discussion, but it is filled with lots of pictures, theory and concepts. I was only looking for a cookbook, hence the 3 stars.

Great information and recipes

This book is a great introduction to the various foods that are eaten according to Macrobiotic principles, in plain English. Each of the basic foods is described, along with handling and preparation information. I am looking forward to trying some of the desserts! I was worried that this style of eating would be very limiting and dull but this book dispels that idea with the variety of meals it presents.

Informative, not preachy

Unlike most cookbooks for vegetarians or health concious folks the American Macrobiotic Cookbook is full of good information, as well as delicious recipes. The illustrations are complimentary to the style of writing and it's an all around good introduction to macrobiotic cooking.

Dispelling the mystery that surrounds macrobiotic cooking, this resource shows how a macrobiotic diet--based upon local fresh vegetables and other easy-to-find ingredients--can include everything from French Onion Soup and Green Corn Tamale to Lemon-Lime Pudding Pie and Ginger Cookies. 94 illustrations.
