Praise for Vegan Fire & Spice
“Want a hot, spicy trip around the world? Save the money on airfare and instead splurge on Robin Robertson’s latest work, Vegan Fire & Spice. Already a prolific cookbook author, Robertson tackles some fairly uncharted territory for us vegans, culinarily speaking. From classic dishes like Spicy Rotini Primavera to the truly exotic Vietnamese “fish” Sauce, the heat index can be adjusted to personal taste. Forget the armchair; stovetop traveling is far spicier.” (VegNews Magazine March-April, 2008)
“Whether you like your food mildly seasoned or boldly spiced, Vegan Fire & Spice will be a go-to book for great-tasting and healthful global vegan recipes.” (Neal Barnard, M.D., president of Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and author of Food for Life)
