One taste and you'll say, "This can't be tofu!" But it is.... Nutritionists, doctors, and food authorities everywhere are telling us to eat more tofu. It's an excellent source of high-quality protein and calcium. It contains no cholesterol and is very low in calories and saturated fat. So why don't we eat more tofu? Because for too long tofu has been used as a substitute for other ingredients. Why turn tofu into a beef substitute in a burger, or pass it off as "cheese" in lasagna, when it is delicious on its own? Now, in This Can't Be Tofu!, award-winning and bestselling author of Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone Deborah Madison shows how to make tofu taste great and be the star attraction in 75 stir-fries, sautés, and other dishes. Pan-Seared Tofu with Garlic, Ginger, and Chives, Vietnamese Spring Rolls, Curried Tofu Triangles with Peas, and Pineapple and Tofu Fried Rice are just some of the innovative recipes in this inspired collection.

This is a cookbook designed for readers who assume they can't cook because they've never tried. Cooking is a big, scary world filled with weird terms. What exactly is a skillet? What's the difference between a steak and a fillet? If the directions say 350 degrees for 60 minutes, can I do 700 degrees for 30? If you've ever asked one of these questions, this book is for you. Not only does it contain 70 recipes for everything from breakfast to desert, but also several pages of definitions, ingredient substitutions, conversion factors (not as scary as it sounds), and a list of the 15 tools you need to get started making delicious meals. The recipes assume no prior knowledge. Things, like hard-boiling an egg, are explained right in the recipes. Every recipe is easy to follow so its easy to cook. That's why I say: If you can read, you can cook
