Recipes You Never Thought Could Taste So Good.
In a panic, have you ever just added cubes of tofu to a stir-fry when you discovered one of your dinner guests was a vegetarian? 'The Soy Alternative' aims to illustrate that soy is not just for vegetarians, nor is tofu the only soy-based product available. These days, soy can be incorporated into a myriad of everyday meals.
This book is an introduction explaining the benefits and origins of soy beans and soy bean products. It includes a glossary illustrating some unusual soy-based (and non-soy-based) ingredients used throughout the book. It also includes three special features on how certain soy products (flour, milk, tofu) are produced from soy beans.
There is an informative feature on Genetically Modified foods (specifically soy beans), presenting the benefits and the problems.
The recipes are divided into chapters to make it easy for the reader to make their selection: Breakfast, Lunch, Vegetarian main meals, Meaty main meals, Desserts and Baking. Each recipe feature is illustrated with a beautiful, original photograph.
