review 1: Really want this recipe book. I've never purchased a recipe book, as only a few recipes are worth making. But, I highlighted almost half the recipes in the book to try. So I really need to buy this on kindle and get a kindle fire for my kitchen. Super excited the author has other books like this one. Lifesaver for someone like me who has just changed their lifestyle and is looking for new ways to prepare those foods or fighting boredom with the few ways I do know.
review 2: This is my kind of book. Food fast, even though the 30 minutes or less often refers to prep time. I really appreciate the author’s attitude that recipes are guidelines and that she recommends flexibility while preparing food. I like the international flavor of the recipes. I like the intro... moreductions to each section and the blurbs at each recipe. Some good, general time saving tips are offered.I’m not fond of the frequency with which sugar is included as ingredients in the savory dishes. A glossary in the back would have been helpful. I know most “vegan” food terms by now but what are panko crumbs? Anyone? I’m sure some of you know, but I do not. There are only two photos of the food; they’re on the back cover of the book.contents:acknowledgmentsintroductiongetting started starters and snacksstovetop supperspasta expresssoups in short orderspeedy sandwichessnappy saladsasy make-ahead bakessauces and condiments(almost) effortless dessertsmetric conversions and equivalentsindexThere are some basic recipes included in the getting started section.
