The Great Illustrated Vegetarian Cookbook Of Italian & Mediterranean Cuisine

Dear readers and vegetarian cooking enthusiasts, I am Teresa Visentini, I am Italian, 62 years old, and since childhood I have been passionate about cooking by watching and learning from my grandmother, cooker/chef, about how to cook many recipes from the great tradition of Italian and Mediterranean cuisine. My grandmother had some restaurants in various regions of Italy, and I, after earning my culinary degree, then joined my grandmother and her staff in our activity of typical and regional Italian restaurants. In this book I propose you the best vegetarian recipes, easy and explained step by step with the help of photographs and the final results of the prepared dishes. These tasty recipes still resist the various fashions and I believe they still remain the best and healthy for our daily nutrition and for all occasions. This comprehensive vegetable cookbook has been written according to the best traditions of Italian cuisine. It is dedicated not only to those who, for different reasons, have chosen to exclude meat and fish from their diets, but also to those who, while not being vegetarian still want to expand their diet by introducing more appetizing vegetarian recipes, healthier read. The book is structured into following main chapters: · Appetizers · Side Sides · Vegetable and Vegetarian Main First Courses Dishes · Vegetable and Vegetarian Main Second Courses Dishes · Salads Thank you and happy cooking Teresa
