Recipes from an Ecological Kitchen: Healthy Meals for You and the Planet Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If I could only keep one of my cookbooks, this would probably be the one. A wonderful cookbook for vegetarians, vegans and others who want to eat less animal products. Delicious and practical. This book got me hooked on using a pressure cooker (though you can still make the recipes without one) and I now use the pressure cooker all the time! Since its original publication RECIPES FROM AN ECOLOGICAL KITCHEN has been reprinted and is currently available in paperback under the title LORNA SASS' COMPLETE VEGETARIAN KITCHEN. I envy those who are about to discover this cookbook for the first time.

Shuck Beans, Stack Cakes, and Honest Fried Chicken: The Heart and Soul of Southern Country Kitchens Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There are so many Southern cookbooks out now, but this one is a keeper. Some of the books available are written either by those who haven't 'walked the walk' or who have tried updating or otherwise modifying the food we grew up with and loved.
No so Ms. Lundy. She gives us the real thing, take it or leave it, with recipes from her own cooking experience. No, not all of these recipes are 'health food' in today's atmosphere of cooking-political correctness. However, these recipes need no apology. As Julia Child has always said, eat everything wisely and in moderation and you won't go wrong. I'd classify much of this book as comfort food, and besides, stress is killing more of our baby-boomer generation than food ever could!
Interspersed with her recipes are delightful recollections, many of well known personalities.
Buy this book and enjoy her writing as well as her recipes!

Here is the first regional American cookbook to offer a true taste of the Mountain South. This unique cookbook gathers together more than 180 authentic down-home southern recipes -- full-flavored, no-nonsense dishes more and more Americans are returning to -- and leavens them with memories of food, family, and friendship from some of country music's most beloved performers. "Take a chicken and you kill it/And you put it in a skillet/And you fry it 'til it's golden-brown./That's southern cooking and it tastes mighty nice." -- "Kentucky Means Paradise" by Merle Travis "Straight from the heart and soul of southern cooking. It's a banquet, with background music." -- John Egerton, author of Southern Food; "Simple, honest cooking of the Mountain South. . . . A fresh, entertaining approach to food." -- Atlanta Constitution; "Reeks with authenticity." -- Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
