Synopsis
For ten years Schumacher College at Dartington has been brewing up a unique pot pourri of human connections, raising ecological awareness, and stimulating taste buds. For many students and teachers, their stay at the College has opened their eyes to how delicious vegetarian cooking can be. Time and again they have gone away demanding the recipes - and suggesting a cookbook.
The cuisine at the College calls upon the best of Mediterranean, Californian, Indian and Mexican vegetarian cooking. It celebrates old favourites rich in cheese and eggs, and offers a variety of tempting new vegan dishes using ingredients such as pulses, tofu and tempeh. The ecological dimension of food production is discussed, together with issues concerning nutrition and special diets. Gaia's Kitchen offers a full repertoire of soups, main courses, salads, desserts, breads, cakes and biscuits. Alongside family-size quantities, the book includes community-size quantities, making it invaluable for teaching centres, communities and anyone who wants to prepare a vegetarian banquet for thirty or forty friends.
