Very Vegetarian: An Introduction To Vegan Cooking With More Than 300 Delicious Recipes-from Easy To Elegant
by Jannequin BennettThe number of people choosing meatless meals is on the increase. And a vegan vegetarian diet -- one without any animal products -- is an unusually healthy one because it is high in fiber, low in saturated fat, and very nutritious. "Too many vegan recipes have relied on exotic and difficult-to-find ingredients or tedious, time-consuming techniques," says Jannequin Bennett, executive chef of a restaurant in a AAA Five Diamond, Mobile Five Star hotel. "But Very Vegetarian has recipes made with common foodstuffs that are uncommonly delicious." Very Vegetarian is presented by and introduced by 9-time Olympic gold medal winner Carl Lewis, who says that a vegan diet of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole complex carbohydrates, high quality proteins, and natural fats is the best way to ensure a person's health and longevity. In addition to a wide range of more than 250 mouth-watering recipes, Very Vegetarian includes a helpful introduction about eating vegan and 16 pages of beautiful four-color photographs. The book will help the person who is beginning to choose meatless meals by providing nutritional information and recipes featuring familiar foods and techniques. For those who have more experience with a plant-based diet, the book offers recipes that will broaden their culinary horizons. Endorsed by the Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine.

Veselka is, quite simply, an institution.The Veselka Cookbook contains more than 150 recipes, covering everything from Ukrainian classics (potato pierogi, five kinds of borscht, grilled kielbasa, and poppy seed cake) to dozens of different sandwiches, to breakfast fare (including Veselka’s renowned pancakes), to the many elements of a traditional Ukrainian Christmas Eve feast.Veselka owner Tom Birchard shares stories about Veselka’s celebrity customers, the local artists who have adopted it as a second home, and the restaurant’s other lesser-known, but no less important, longtime fans, and he offers a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to serve five thousand gallons of borscht a year and to craft three thousand pierogi daily—all by hand.The Veselka Cookbook will delight anyone with an interest in Ukrainian culture, New York City’s vibrant downtown, and the pleasures of simple, good food.“It’s one thing to have delicious food, it’s another thing to have it available twenty-four hours a day.

Viaje al sabor 2
by Carlos ReyesUn recorrido sobre las manifestaciones culinarias más enraizadas en la cultura nacional, desde el tradicional comino hasta las parrilladas bailables que proliferaron en dictadura bajo el régimen de toque de queda. Carlos Reyes construye sus crónicas no solo a partir de la receta tradicional de distintas localidades de Chile, sino que busca esa sintonía con la cultura ciudadana que convierte la comida en una costumbre que reúne a la gente en torno a la mesa, y que habla también sobre cómo somos los chilenos. "En un país tan largo y por lo mismo con tantos climas, suele haber productos cuyas esencias marcan el carácter de cada territorio. Las unidades nacionales son más bien cosa de gustos comunes. Entre esos pliegues de la mentalidad colectiva se aloja el comino#", escribe Reyes, justamente acerca de ese aliño tan característico de la cocina chilena y que él retrata en un relato escrito en Ovalle, en lo más profundo del valle Limarí. Así, este crítico gastronómico nos cuenta cómo los soldados chilenos que pelearon en la Guerra del Pacífico trajeron el pisco a nuestro territorio, nos habla de ajiacos, cazuelas, nuevas costumbres como el sushi al paso y viejas costumbres como las heredadas de la cultura chinchorro.
Vibe: Unlock the Energetic Frequencies of Limitless Health, Love & Success
by Robyn OpenshawIn Vibe, bestselling author Robyn Openshaw reveals the difference between low vibration emotions (fear, anger, inertia) and high vibration emotions (love, inner peace, gratitude) and helps you dramatically impact your physical and mental well-being by raising your vibrational frequencies.The great Austrian scientist Nikola Tesla is a household name among today&’s scientific community, known for his finding that all matter has vibrational energy, or electrical frequency, and that we are all electrical beings, made up of rapidly vibrating cells. Most of us are vaguely familiar with this concept, but we don&’t realize the powerful implications this has for our choices every day—which foods to eat, how much water to drink, what we think about when we&’re in the car or the shower, what our risk of disease is, and how we feel at any given moment are all affected by the power of vibration. Everything in health and wellness should revolve around the basic concept that what we choose to eat and what we choose to do lowers or raises our vibration. And that makes all the difference. Vibe explores the foods, natural substances, and lifestyle practices that can raise our vibrations. Robyn Openshaw reveals evidence that shows how drinking green juice, using certain essential oils, and engaging in yoga and meditation raises the frequency of the human brain and other organs. Living in a &“high vibe&” state can make us resilient to illness, fatigue, burnout, and depression. Readers will learn all about the low vibration emotions (fear, anger, inertia) and the high vibration emotions (love, peace, gratitude) and how to achieve higher vibrations in everyday living. Openshaw explores how the smallest changes in our life—from what we eat to how we think—can radically improve our mood, overall health, and quality of life.

A Victorian Guide to Healthy Living
by Dr. Thomas AllinsonThe Victorian Dr. Thomas Allinson founded the famous Allinson bread firm in 1892 and wrote five volumes of medical essays outlining his beliefs that food was an important factor in health. His sage advice was an anathema to his Victorian peers and he was struck off in an age where medicines were made of mercury and arsenic. His outrageous beliefs included exercise being good for health, the need for a work-life balance for better efficiency and health, avoiding tea and coffee in the evening to promote better sleep and obesity being caused by eating too much. These misguided beliefs are so relevant to todays market and written in a wonderfully anachronistic but accessible manner. Best-selling author and food and health expert Anna Selby has edited his five books into one volume, incorporating chapters such as vegetarianism, exercise and the work-life balance, as well as a chapter containing some of his quirkier beliefs.
