New Vegetarian Tofu Recipes

Rating:
Summary: Not-So-Easy Recipe Book
Review: I had been hoping for an easy-to-read, easy-to-make recipe book for all the useful things I have heard can be done with Tofu. This short book spent two chapters discussing soya milk and tofu, and giving complicated methods for making your own. I would prefer to buy the soya milk and tofu already made, and use it to create delicious dishes. The remaining part of the book featured recipes for things I would probably never eat, such as "Potato Yam Yam" and "Soya Oats Porridge". Other recipes called for such mysterious ingredients as "samphire", "courgettes" (I guess I'm not a gourmet but I never heard of these) and tahini paste (I've been looking for that to no avail for several months after reading an "easy" hummus recipe). This book is written by British gourmet chefs and definitely not for me! The best part or the book is that it is short and easy to read, so I will concede a 2-star rating. Since I did not find even one recipe I wanted to try, I am returning the book. Don't waste your time on this one.
