Post Punk Kitchen Forum

So, I have a lot of vegan cookbooks (approximately 30), and I tend to go back to the same ones over and over. (I also tend to buy cookbooks in batches, and then cook exclusively from one of the new cookbooks). But I want to try out some that have just been collecting dust, so if you've cooked from these, could you recommend a couple of recipes to start with?

- Vegan Soul Kitchen
- Caribbean Vegan
- Indian Vegan Kitchen
- Vegan on the Cheap
- Party Vegan
- Vegan Yum Yum

Most of these have their own dedicated thread. Maybe use the search function and you can browse through each thread?

vegan yum yum was a staple in our house for a long while (i go through cook book phases)
we love the chickpea salad, the black bean soup, the chili lime tofu... oh and the nearly raw tahini noodles. i've made more and liked everything but those get made the most

Caribbean Vegan is excellent; Taymer is very, very talented. Please make the doubles with bara, two chutneys, and maybe sauce chien. Also make the vegan ham--the flavor profile is spot on. You can make ham cutters (sandwiches) and/or use the ham in her split pea soup (also delicious) and other recipes, ie I have added shaved vegan ham to scalloped potatoes. I also really like the hearts of palm scramble and the tofish. I think every vegan who likes food should have this book! Mo recently reviewed the book here. I have lots more I want to make from this cookbook and from her blog.

It really makes sense to go to the dedicated threads for these cookbooks. It's so much more convenient to have all the recs for one book in one place!

I'm not going to lock the thread because I don't want it to seem mean or anything, but let's go with Kelvia's advice.

Dedicated threads. Right. Why didn't it occur to me to search for them? (Hangs head in shame).

It's all good, really. No worries! It just makes it easier for other people to find stuff in the future.

I'll close this one up now that you know I'm not a vindictive mod.
