Vegetarian Cookbook Review
The Complete Italian Vegetarian Cookbook
by Jack Bishop

Not only is Italian cuisine my favorite, but I've always felt that it is one of the best for vegetarians. Pizza and pasta provide foundations for all kinds of meatless toppings and sauces, and the sky is pretty much the limit. But even I was surprised by the variety of recipes in The Complete Italian Vegetarian Cookbook: 350 essential recipes for inspired everyday eating.

I've been a huge fan of Jack Bishop ever since the first time I made his Tomato Cheese Tart (from A Year in a Vegetarian Kitchen), and The Complete Italian Vegetarian Cookbook didn't disappoint. I read the first hundred pages like a novel, my mouth watering more every minute over recipes like Potato Fritters with Parmesan, Roasted Yellow Pepper Soup, and Fettucine with Mascarpone, Toasted Walnuts and Basil. All told, there are 350 recipes, and I've yet to find one that isn't good.

One particularly nice feature is the inclusion of complementary dishes for each recipe. And there are also very useful tips on things like roasting peppers, baking pizza, cooking pasta, and making gnocchi.

If you love Italian food, don't miss The Complete Italian Vegetarian Cookbook. It will keep your tastebuds happy for years to come.
