Status Updates From Big Vegan Flavor: Technique...

I think for beginner vegans, this is a decent entry. It's a bit cumbersome in general as it's a huge and very heavy book. A lot of very similar recipes with the same flavor profiles. Honestly, you could forgo this book and just watch her Youtube videos or read her blogs for recipes. This book doesn't feel all that necessary and it's not organized very well.

So many recipes are so similar with the same flavor profiles or ingredients you have to make before or aren't readily available or you'd never use outside this book. Some of the brunch recipes are rather common vegan ones so nothing surprising. If you don't like Indian food at all, you won' like this at all.

Hmm, the more we get into the book, the more complex the recipes get, which is fine, but it's like, refer to X, Y, Z page for this recipe so you have all the pre-ingredients already made... Pass.

Grains and veggie chapters👌

Tofu section is the best so far. I’ve tried all of these recipes and easy to make after you’ve made it a few times cuz some have a lot of steps and ingredients.

Hmm, I don't think I'd make much of this first part of this book tbh. They also have the same flavor profiles (i.e., same spices) that I'm not a fan of. I'm not sure if this is heavily influenced by Indian flavors or not.
