<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>A joyful 250-recipe manifesto from the author of<i> </i>the best-selling <i>Moosewood Cookbook</i>.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>With <i>The Moosewood Cookbook, </i>Mollie Katzen changed the way a generation cooked and brought vegetarian cuisine into the mainstream. In <i>The Heart of the Plate</i>, she completely reinvents the vegetarian repertoire, unveiling a collection of beautiful, healthful, and unfussy dishes -- her "absolutely most loved." Her new cuisine is light, sharp, simple, and modular; her inimitable voice is as personal, helpful, clear, and funny as ever. Whether it's a salad of kale and angel hair pasta with orange chili oil or a seasonal autumn lasagna, these dishes are celebrations of vegetables. They feature layered dishes that juxtapose colors and textures: orange rice with black beans, or tiny buttermilk corn cakes on a Peruvian potato stew. Suppers from the oven, like vegetable pizza and mushroom popover pie, are comforting but never stodgy. Burgers and savory pancakes -- from eggplant Parmesan burgers to zucchini ricotta cloud cakes -- make weeknight dinners fresh and exciting. "Optional Enhancements" allow cooks to customize every recipe.<i> The</i> <i>Heart of the Plate</i> is vibrantly illustrated with photographs and original watercolors by the author herself.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Praise for <i>The Heart of the Plate</i><br> A big, fat book of lovely veggie recipes.
