Description

This second volume in Mollie Katzen's classic cooking series features over 200 vegetarian recipes and a bounty of kitchen guidance from one of America's dearest cookbook authors. Mollie first revised ENCHANTED BROCCOLI in 1995, adding lighter, easier-to-prepare versions of her signature recipes, plus a selection of new dishes and techniques. As with MOOSEWOOD, this new edition of ENCHANTED BROCCOLI is a companion volume to Mollie's new TV series, and features 16 pages of color food photography, plus 5 new recipes and a new section on making fresh pasta at home.

Chatty, "hand written" style 'tho sometimes a little 'busy' on a page. I like the section indexes and the formulas for quiches in general, vegetable combos, mixes of various muffins and desserts
LibraryThing member refashionista
Count me disenchanted with the Enchanted Broccoli Forest. I find the recipes in here needlessly strange and the sort of vegetarian food people snicker at when poking fun at vegetarianism. Someone needs to point out to Katzen that it really is okay to make vegetarian food that is "normal" food --

more appealing to the palate of the masses.

very inspiring for a newly vegetarian family

We lived very communally for a period and relied heavily on Mollie K's first cookbook. This one is pretty good, but somehow doesn't spark quite the same joy as the original Moosewood cookbook. Enough favourites and ideas in Enchanted broccoli keeps it on our kitchen cookbook shelf.

Local notes

Chapters include: Soups, Salads, Breads, Sauces, Dips and Spreads, Entrees, Desserts, Menu Planning Notes, Improvisation Notes, and Bean and Grain Cooking Charts. Many different ethnic and cooking styles are represented.

Beautifully handwritten text and delightfully illustrated (more of an attraction than the recipes actually, which can be quite hard work).
