Make your own meat and cheese without involving animals

Fake Meat Real Food for Vegan Appetites by Isa Chandra Moskowitz

February 5, 2023 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

It looks like the theme for vegan cooking for early 2023 is make your own meat substitutes. The newest entry to this group is Fake Meat by Isa Chandra Moskowitz. The author is basically the OG of modern approachable vegan cooking. She’s also my only cookbook automatic pre-order any and all new titles. Most previous Isa books are “vegan for beginners” in nature, in that they feature more readily available ingredients and normal cooking standard processes. This time, things gets a little more advanced. There’s […]

What’s a tortilla? And what to put in it?

Masa: Techniques, Recipes, and Reflections on a Timeless Staple by Jorge Gaviria

January 15, 2023 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

I’ve started trying to have a new cookbook at the beginning of the year and try to work my way through all or most of it; there’s a bit of a backlog on this and I’m finally getting into a Mexican vegan book I got (and reviewed) last year. Before starting into it, I saw Masa: Techniques, Recipes, and Reflections on a Timeless Staple on some ‘top books of …’ lists, and I figured that might be a good accompaniment to really get into some […]

Fake Meat without the Butcher Shop

The Herbivorous Butcher by Aubry Walch, Kale Walch

December 30, 2022 by CoffeeShopReader 1 Comment

I’m really glad I didn’t fly home this year based on the travel chaos caused by the weather; I drove. What I did get stuck with though was indoors for a few days during blizzard conditions and dangerous windchills; that meant that even though I was pretty close geographically to the Herbivorous Butcher, I didn’t get to go. At least I got to stop at one of my favorite independent bookshops on the way (Boswell Books in Milwaukee WI) and got the cookbook. The Herbivorous […]

Be your own country dessert providing grandma

250 Treasured Country Desserts by Andrea Chesman, Fran Raboff

October 29, 2022 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

Bingo 25: Cozy What’s cozier than grandma’s best homemade dessert? Not much, I’d say.  250 Treasured Country Desserts provides. This is one of those recipe collections that’s got the expected standards like molasses cookies, apple cake, jelly roll, lemon meringue pie (also lemon angel pie which looks like basically the same thing?), fruit buckle, and pudding. It’s also got some more interesting, newer to me items that I want to try like orange poppyseed cake (closely related to the lemon standard probably but a slightly […]

Irony for Breakfast after Your Run

Rise & Run: Recipes, Rituals, and Runs to Fuel Your Day by Shalane Flanagan, Elyse Kopecky

October 16, 2022 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

Bingo 21: Rec’d I run and so a good bit of my social media connections relate to that; about a month ago, a gal on my local women’s running group posted that her favorite cookbook series was on Kindle sale; a handful of the other ladies voiced their support/intent to purchase this title. I’d heard of it before, so I figured, why not? I have to admit, I hadn’t quite made the connection that Rise and Run: Recipes, Rituals, and Runs to Fuel Your Day […]

‘Grilled Cheese’ sounds more appealing the ‘Fried Cheese’ Sandwich

The Great Grilled Cheese Book by Eric Greenspan

September 29, 2022 by CoffeeShopReader 2 Comments

Bingo 17: Funky The Great Grilled Cheese Book contains some funk; funky cheese (I’m thinking the ‘blue cheese’ chapter, and kind of a relaxed funk (as in the music style) vibe in general. I know the author, Chef Eric Greenspan, from tv, and he seems like the chill sort of guy who would (and did) put together something that is more like guidelines as opposed to strict recipes. So, onto the cheese. Probably the coolest thing in the whole book is a recipe for diy […]

  • narfna on We are women without a voice…We are women out of time and place, without even the language of the country we reside in.Everything I hear about this makes me want to read it more. I've heard the audio is great, that's probably the route I'll go.
