Mark Bittman’s New Cookbook

Mark Bittman has just released his latest cookbook, a tribute to vegetarianism. Heidi Swanson over at 101 Cookbooks has done a nice write-up, profiling a recipe perfect for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday.

Heidi writes, “Mark Bittman wrote a giant, 996-page vegetarian cookbook….yes, that Mark Bittman. I know, I was a bit perplexed as well. And here’s the thing, it’s very good. That Autumn Millet Bake recipe you see up above, it’s a Bittman creation. The first three times I saw How to Cook Everything Vegetarian in my local bookstore, I didn’t even bother picking it up. I thought, ‘oh he just dusted off all the meatless recipes from his past books, columns, and television shows and stuck them in one volume. Yawn.’ I finally sat down with a review copy that was sent to me and I have to tell you, this book is fantastic – absolutely packed with great recipes, charts, illustrations, endless variations and ideas.”

I adore Mark Bittman’s cookbooks and writings over at The New York Times. View Heidi’s entire post here.
