Many people are learning about the political ramifications of what they eat, but don't know how to change their habits or expand their kitchen repertoire to include meatless dishes. This compendium offers a straightforward overview of the political issues surrounding food, and a culinary toolkit to put principles into practice. Without resorting to faux meat, fake cheese, or obscure ingredients, the recipes focus on fresh, local, minimally processed ingredients that sustain farmers, animals, and the entire food chain. Instead of a rigid set of recipes to be replicated, it offers tips for improvisation, creative thinking in the kitchen, practical suggestions for cooking on a budget, and quick and delicious vegan and vegetarian meal options for anyone who wants to eat fast, tasty, nutritious food every day.</P></DIV> 6588929 1 9 2009 Cook Food: A Manualfesto for Easy, Healthy, Local Eating total:24|5:15|4:6|3:2|2:1|1:0| 24 107 129 11 3 0 false false Wed Oct 07 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 29 14:08:47 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 29 14:09:30 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Oct 07 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 07 08:06:00 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 07 08:17:36 -0700 2009 review at Pandagon got me curious/excited about this book, so I ordered a copy for a friend who is looking to learn to cook.
