Vegetarian Cooking for You pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2026

INTRODUCTION<br >Today there is a growing interest in organically grown vegetables<br >and whole foods， with the result that more and more people are<br >discovering that the range of vegetarian dishes can be both<br >imaginative and full of variety.<br > Tile aim of this book is to inspire all adventurous cooks -<br >vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike - to experiment and try out<br >new ingredients. A vegetarian diet can provide all the essential<br >nutrients we require for good health， including fats， essential<br >minerals and vitamins. Meat is considered by many people to be a<br >vital part of a balanced diet， and it is essential that strict vegetarians<br >plan their diet carefully to ensure that they obtain an adequate supply<br >of amino acids and iron. It is important， therefore， that all ingredients<br >are flesh， wholesome and in perfect condition.<br > It is a good idea to seek out reliable suppliers where you can be<br >sure of finding natural， unprocessed ingredients. Shopping in<br >specialist stores is often more enjoyable and usually well worth the<br >extra expense; the flavour in the food is just one of the bonuses.<br > In these weight- and calorie-conscious times， salads are becoming<br >increasingly popular. Raw vegetables are especially good for you as<br >they provide essential roughage and none of the nutrients are lost<br >during cooking. Some vegetables， such as courgettes (zucchini)，<br >cauliflower and leeks， are more appetizing if first blanched in boiling<br >water， then drained and rinsed in cold water while still crisp.<br > No salad is complete without a homemade dressing， and there are<br >endless possibilities for combining ingredients like herb oils， fruit<br >juices， mustards and spices. For a light creamy dressing， try adding<br >fresh herbs and seasonings to natural yogurt.<br > To add interest to a vegetarian meal， think carefully about the<br >ways in which you can vary the flavours and contrast textures. A<br >thick bean soup， served with a crisp fresh salad and crusty<br >wholewheat bread， for example， can make a complete and satisfying<br >meal. Alternatively， serve a variety of individual vegetable dishes<br >with different sauces as the main course， keeping in mind the way in<br >which Chinese and Indian meals are presented. Make the most of<br >herbs， freshly picked from the garden or from a pot on the kitchen<br >windowsill， and discover how to season foods with blends of<br >aromatic spices. It is these different and subtle flavours which<br >transform everyday ingredicnts into delicious and memorable meals.<br > It is hoped that everyone， whcihcr a committed vegetarian or not，<br >will enjoy planning， preparing and sampling this collection of<br >exciting vegetarian dishes.<br >
