Crazy Good Vegan

Book Description
Lloyd Rose is a wizard at using commonly found pantry ingredients and transforming them into flavor-packed plant-based meals. Where many plant-based chefs are calling for expensive and hard-to-find ingredients like black salt or kappa carrageenan to mimic flavors and textures of animal products, Lloyd keeps it simple. He combines a handful of key ingredients with smart cooking techniques to make food that just plain tastes good, doesn't break the bank and happens to be vegan. For instance, Lloyd's recipe for Louisana-style fried tofu nuggets has you rip the tofu into rough chunks (instead of slicing) before coating in a seasoned batter; the batter gets into all those crevices and makes for a superior texture with each savory bite. He elevates a simple tomato pasta dish with chopped sundried tomatoes marinated in oil, oat milk and red pepper flakes. The oat milk adds the perfect creamy touch with no funky aftertaste which can happen with almond or coconut milk; the marinated tomatoes add depth of flavor; and you get that spicy kick that has your taste buds doing a happy dance. Inspired by his mom's Jamaican heritage, Lloyd's dishes are bold and rooted in tradition. Plant-based home cooks who don't have the time and budget for complex recipes will go crazy for Lloyd's refreshing reminder that the best things in the kitchen are usually the simplest.

Book Description
Vegetarian recipes from a food blogger with “a talent for enticing and boldly flavored creations, in recipes that are colorful, thoughtful, and fresh” (Heidi Swanson, New York Times–bestselling author of Super Natural Cooking). In Herbivoracious: A Vegetarian Cookbook for People Who Love to Eat, food blogger Michael Natkin offers up 150 exciting recipes (most of which have not appeared on his blog) notable both for their big, bold, bright flavors and for their beautiful looks on the plate, the latter apparent in more than 80 four-color photos that grace the book. An indefatigable explorer of global cuisines, with particular interests in the Mediterranean and the Middle East and in East and Southeast Asia, Natkin has crafted, through years of experimenting in his kitchen and in loads of intensive give-and-take with his blog readers, dishes that truly are revelations in taste, texture, aroma, and presentation. You’ll find hearty main courses, ranging from a robust Caribbean Lentil-Stuffed Flatbread across the Atlantic to a comforting Sicilian Spaghetti with Pan-Roasted Cauliflower and around the Cape of Good Hope to a delectable Sichuan Dry-Fried Green Beans and Tofu. An abundance of soups, salads, sauces and condiments, sides, appetizers and small plates, desserts, and breakfasts round out the recipes. Natkin, a vegetarian himself, provides advice on how to craft vegetarian meals that amply deliver protein and other nutrients, and the imaginative menus he presents deliver balanced and complementary flavors, in surprising and utterly pleasing ways. The many dozens of vegan and gluten-free recipes are clearly noted, too, and an introductory chapter lays out the simple steps readers can take to outfit a globally inspired pantry of seasonings and sauces that make meatless food come alive.
