About This Book

A practical vegetarian cookery manual combines an ethical introduction arguing for abstaining from animal flesh with hands-on household guidance and organized recipes for meatless fare. It offers kitchen and dining-room advice, suggestive comments, and recipe sections covering soups, vegetables and combinations, nut dishes, rice and macaroni, croquettes, timbales and patties, sauces, eggs, cheese, salads, savouries, sandwiches, pastry, breads and desserts, followed by menus and an index. The recipes avoid mimicking meat and emphasize palatable preparation of unadulterated plant-based ingredients, with tips on cooking technique, serving, and menu planning to sustain compassionate, practical vegetarian living.

CREAMED ENDIVE

Cut the outside leaves from heads of endive, and wash the endive thoroughly; then drain and put in boiling salted water for fifteen minutes. Drain again and cover with cold water for a few minutes, then chop and put in a saucepan with some butter, allowing 1 tablespoon for each head of endive, cover and let cook slowly for ten minutes, salt well, moisten with cream and sprinkle with paprika, and serve on toast or garnished with triangular pieces of toast.
