Publisher Comments:

No, there is no chicken stock in this soup. What you'll find here is page after glorious page of the loveliest, most delicious soups and stews - each and every one entirely vegetarian. Brimming with international flavors, Paulette Mitchell's easy-to-follow recipes are paired with unique accompaniments, garnishes, and toppings that add tremendous visual appeal. Witness hearty Pumpkin Stew baked and served in a pumpkin shell; classic onion soup updated with crunchy goat cheese toasts; and Spicy Sweet Potato Ancho Bisque swirled with bright Roasted Red Pepper Cream. From Mediterranean Saffron Stew to Greek Spinach and Orzo Soup, these colorful dishes are simple enough for every day, yet sophisticated enough for elegant dinner parties. Instructions for making tasty vegetable stock from scratch, a selection of delicious vegan soups, and a helpful 'tips' section make this gorgeous cookbook an important addition to any kitchen where good food and good health are on the menu.

I prefer to keep vegetarian and vegetable cookbooks as separate items. In these recipes you can find goat cheese and ancho (anchovis?) which aren't really very vegetarian items. I'm not a purist, but I like to keep things in their own places - it helps you to get into the right feeling when reading or using a cookbook - and when serving the dishes to your friends.

Presumably this book is full of wildly delicious recipes, but the few I've already tried are such hits that I have not moved past them yet. Highly recommended. I get compliments every time I make something from this book, and the recipes are very easy to make vegan if you're into that kind of thing.
