Rating: Summary: So far soooo good! Review: I have only made a few of the simpler recipes from this cookbook as I just got it recently. The simple chana dal with chanterelles became an instant staple: easy, incredibly fresh-flavored, and healthy. Chanterelles being $25 a pound, I've used fresh shiitake for all subsequent preparations of this recipe. (Chanterelles super, but not worth the money for a hearty every-day dish. Even right now I'm eating a bowl of the dal, with cheaper mushrooms.)The pistachio lace tuiles were delicious, rich, crispy; I made a double batch because I had all the ingredients on hand (you probably won't, but since I have the previous Millennium cookbook, brown rice syrup was already in my pantry). The real hit with friends was the Coconut Sorbet. So simple...but my friend S---- ran outside after one bite and started yelling for D--- to come inside and "try this ice cream NOW!". This cookbook is NOT for beginners. Try out The Voluptuous Vegan if you want to get started with simpler but still-delicious vegan food. I'm not a vegan...but I love the food in this cookbook.
