I guess this is the OLD Moosewood Cookbook now...it has many excellent recipes for tasty vegetarian dishes. Our copy is about 20 years old, but looks like someone may have been using it for centuries--in our house that means we turn to it over and over for things we never get tired of eating.

This was one of the first cookbooks I bought when I graduated from college (if not the first). I still own it in fact. Back in the day, I was intimidated by cooking with meat, so I wanted a vegetarian cookbook and it seemed that everybody had this one. The recipes are simple enough to make, and the artwork and handwritten recipes make it a welcoming experience - exactly what I needed right out of college. It was the cookbook I learned to cook on. I fondly remember making Hungarian mushroom soup., crepes, lasagna, gado gado, gypsy soup and banana bread. In general, I prefer the North American/European recipes in the book. I find the Middle Eastern/Asian recipes are either bland or don't taste quite right. So, there are some things I avoid. But otherwise, it's a great book. And even though my cooking skills have progressed in the last 10 years or so, I still flip open the Moosewood cookbook from time and time and make an old favorite.
