[.ca] Macrobiotic Brown Rice Cookbook (ISBN 0892814470)

Not Macrobiotic enough:
If your a vegetarain this book is good, But as far as macrobiotic?..........no way!!! Recipes nearly all contain GARLIC, & other ingredients such as coconut milk........I was pushed hard to find a macrobiotic recipe that was not too YIN...... I actually had an old edition of this book. Back then, the recipes were filled with spices too.

I love this book:
I'm a vegetarian, not macrobiotic, so perhaps the other person's criticism was valid, but I love this book. There are some very simple but delicious dishes in this book. This is the one I turn to when I don't want to cook something too complicated, but I want somthing healthy and delicious. The soup recipes are some of my favorites from any book, especially the one with corn (add shredded carrot for color, yum). And I also like the writing, not just the recipes. (The resaon I am looking at the book here at all is because I want to get a copy for a friend of mine as a present.)

I love their recipes!:
This book is great! The miso soup recipe is wonderful, and I'm hooked on the Risi i Bisi!!! It was recommended to me by a friend who modified her diet after being diagnosed with cancer. Being vegetarian, I explored it myself and now it's a staple in my kitchen. Recipes are relatively easy and very tasty.

Brown Rice Simplified:
This book is simple to read and understand. The recipies are easy to follow. This is a great little book to have handy in your kitchen. The foundation of a macrobiotic diet is well cooked brown rice. This book will give you ideas, and will help to bring your brown rice cooking to perfection.
