Tofu is an essential ingredient in modern living.

This fabulous book opens with an informative introduction to tofu and the many tofu-related products available today with invaluable tips on identifying types and their properties. As well as providing nutritional information, there is a comprehensive techniques section covering actually making your own tofu if you have time, preparing purchased types and cooking with tofu in every possible way. With over 60 easy-to-cook recipes in this collection, there is something for every occasion, from starters, main course and even desserts for midweek meals, to quick snacks and finger food, and delicious ideas on a larger scale for celebrations and special events. To start your meal, try minestrone soup with tofu, or go for something a little more unusual such as Thai tempeh cakes with sweet dipping sauce. Main meals include vegetarian dishes such as roasted vegetable and tofu pasta and Mexican tortilla wraps, as well as non-vegetarian options such as pork and tofu croquettes, and salmon fillets with a lemony tofu sauce. The final chapter includes tempting desserts, from tofu cheesecake to carrot cake. Each mouthwatering recipe comes with step-by-step instructions covering every technique and stage of the cooking process. A glorious colour picture of every finished dish ensures that you know exactly what you are aiming to make, and great results are achieved every time.

Tofu Mania: Add Tofu to 120

Not specifically a vegetarian cookbook—most recipes replace some of the fat from eggs, meat, and dairy products and thereby lower their fat and cholesterol count. Inexpensive, high in protein, low in fat and rich in vitamins, iron and calcium, and free of cholesterol and lactose, tofu has long had a devoted following. But now this book makes cooking with tofu fun and tasty for everyone. Unlike tofu cookbooks that call for unfamiliar and hard-to-find ingredients, this book incorporates tofu into such familiar dishes as macaroni and cheese, pizza, mashed potatoes, chocolate cake, brownies and even whipped cream—without sacrificing great taste or texture. The 120 easy-to-prepare recipes cover breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as beverages, appetizers, dips, salads and desserts.
