] Date Posted: 26/09/06 22:12 Just wondered if anyone here has a vegetarian or vegan diet and in particular if any books influenced this or are useful to you? In terms of influence I remember as a teenager reading The Deep Range by Arthur C. Clarke and it made a lasting impression. In terms of books for making stuff I found the vegan cookbook by Wakeman and Baskerville WONDERFUL and came across it in 1990.....

Date Posted: 27/09/06 10:25 Good thread this Zenwind, cos although I'm not fully vegan, I regularly eat vegan food and am looking out for really good recipe books. Have a few on my wish list at Amazon, but would be interesting to see if anyone here has any recommendations. Mind you one of my fav meals is a made up one - basically chopped onion, pepper and courgette, tin of tomatoes, tin of mixed beans (organic of course!)and coconut milk, served with rice. We usually add some curry powder as well to jazz it up a bit. Rowan :) [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 27/09/06 13:49 Well I'm not vegan now but was at one time. The book that got me started is "Back to Eden" by Jethro Kloss. Mostly it is a guide to herbal medicine but in it he also talks about vegetarian diet and gives recipes too. I liked the one for coconut butter. It was fun but time consuming to make. Happy journey.

Date Posted: 12/12/06 19:34 Thanks for those links WW, very usefull. I still think 'vegsoc' sounds like something out of Orwells 1984 though. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
