The Complete Italian Vegetarian Cookbook: 350 Essential Recipes for Inspired Everyday Eating

From: $24.75

This uniquely accessible collection draws together the best vegetarian recipes of Italy-350 in all. 'Pasta and pizza may be Italy's most eye-catching exports, but it is the country's varied and sensible use of vegetables that provides the best inspiration for American cooks,' writes Jack Bishop. 'Asparagus spears coated with a little olive oil and roasted to intensify their flavor; thick slices of country bread grilled over an open fire and topped with diced tomatoes and shredded basil from the garden; or a fragrant stew with fennel and peas-Italians enjoy these dishes because of what they do contain, not what they don't.' Many of the recipes were gathered by Bishop during extensive travels throughout Italy. Some are family favorites, adapted from those of his Italian grandmother. All deliver perfect results with a minimum of effort. Serving suggestions for each recipe make planning vegetarian meals easy.

Quite simply my favorite cookbook. I love all Jack Bishop's cookbooks, but this one has clearly gotten the most use. The recipes are wholesome, vegetarian, and delicious--all vegetarian food should be like this.

From: Amazon Posted: Apr 18, 2006 Type: User Review Very Nice book, stays true to authentic Italian recipes

To put this review into perspective for you, it is written by an amateur cook that has been seriously studying cooking on her own for 25 years with the last 10 years spent mostly on Italian cuisine. My favorite cookbook is "The Professional Chef"...
