First of all, I would like to say that I am not biased against this book because I am vegan. I was vegetarian for 2 years before going vegan, so that has nothing to do with it.
Having said that, I would like to express my opinions.
First, it offends me to no end that the author uses fish in the Puttanesca sauce. She also uses the term “strict, not even fish vegetarian”, which is ignorant. Vegetarians DO NOT EAT FISH! By definition, vegetarianism is abstaining from eating the flesh of any animals or eating anything that results from the death of an animal. FISH IS MEAT! Period!
Secondly, I can’t put my support behind any book claiming over and over to be healthful that includes dairy and eggs in almost every recipe. From a health standpoint, you can include eggs and dairy in a well balanced diet and still be okay. But not in the LARGE amounts used in these recipes.
Frankly, I detest this book.

SPECIAL NOTE TO HARDIN TERRELL OF HOMER AK. I TOO GOT SUCKED IN BY THE “NEW RECIPES FROM MOOSEWOOD RESTAURANT”. FORGETABLE! BUT DONT GIVE UP THE REAL “NEW MOOSEWOOD COOKBOOK” IS OUT THERE – TRY AGAIN ITS WORTH IT. MY FIRST COPY OF THE ORIGINAL BOOK WAS BORROWED, AND STOLEN BY A “FRIEND”. I WAS DELIGHTED WHEN I SAW IT ADVERTISED AND ORDERED IT, BUT GOT THE MINI-BOOK INSTEAD. I’M STUBBORN SO I REORDERED AND THE REAL “NEW MOSEWOOD COOKBOOK” ARRIVED TODAY. IT’S NOT THE ONE I USED TO OWN, BUT IT IS SUPER, AND IT WILL PROVIDE SUPPER TONIGHT. I’M ABLE TO SUBSTITUTE SOYMILK FOR MILK AND SOY CHEESE FOR CHEESE SO IT IS A WONDERFUL ADDITION TO MY VEGAN COOKBOOKS. GOOD LUCK HARDIN, TRY AGAIN YOU TOO CAN BECOME A COOKBOOK ADDICT

It took longer than promised for me to receive my order. I called customer service. They sent me out another order for two day delivery at no charge to me. Both orders arrived 2 days later. I’ve ordered from Amazon a lot. This is the first time that I didn’t receive my order BEFORE they said it would be here. I was already impressed by Amazon, but now I really am.

I agree with the Oakland, Ca. review! The Bay Area has completely refined fresh, wholesome cuisine and this book is no match for any of the food that is readily available in this part of the country. I was a major fan of Mollie Katzen until I moved out here and became acquainted with the Bay Area cuisine. The Moosewood recipes tend to be bland and many of the ingredients just don’t jive with each other.
