I'm not vegan, but interested in making some kick-ass seitan. I was looking for [b:Cooking With Seitan 1701182 Cooking with Seitan The Complete Vegetarian Barbara Jacobs http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1187107395s/1701182.jpg 1698226] in the library and stumbled across this. This book is one of the most amazing cookbooks I've read. The Seitanic Jambalaya and the Lower-fat Deep Chocolate Bundt cake were huge hits. I don't feel like I'm missing out on something (read: cheese) when I eat these recipes. The other great thing is that, of the recipes I've made, all of the items are available at Whole Foods. PS- the seitan in this book ends up being great in the recipes but my hands-down favorite recipes for making seitan come from [b:La Dolce Vegan 48313 La Dolce Vegan! Vegan Livin' Made Easy Sarah Kramer http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170353362s/48313.jpg 47266]!

A good book with accurate but basic information. The lack of pictures was a letdown.

It's a nice book for beginners on the subject, but definitely not the “ultimate vegan cookbook”.
