Preface


Introduction


Since writing my first slow cooker book, I've become even more convinced of the value of this amazing appliance. Not only is it a great convenience, it fits so well with the way I like to cook that it constantly inspires me to think of new ways to incorporate its services into my life. Given our increased emphasis on nutrition, the time seemed right to do a book focused exclusively on vegetarian recipes. Today, many people -- even those who are not vegetarians -- are eating less meat. Not only is a diet high in vegetables, legumes, grains and fruit lower in calories and saturated fat, plant foods have many other health benefits, such as disease-fighting properties, which we are only now beginning to understand. Combining the advantages of eating more vegetables with the convenience of the slow cooker seemed like a great idea.

As in my previous books, I've tried to include a wide range of recipes that will appeal to many tastes and requirements -- from great family food to more sophisticated recipes for entertaining, including desserts. There are more than 60 "vegan-friendly" recipes in the book, which have been identified as such for easy access. And many recipes that contain eggs or dairy can be easily substituted with egg substitutes and/or non-diary ingredients that suit your taste.

As a committed slow cooker fan, it doesn't surprise me that the slow cooker, invented in the 1970s as a device for cooking beans, is enjoying a lively revival in the early years of the new millennium. Quite simply, it is one of the most effective time-management tools any cook can have. With its help, even the most time-pressed people can arrive home after abusy day to an old-fashioned home-cooked meal, ready to serve.

As enjoyable as it is to recreate many of the more traditional dishes that were a meaningful part of the past, such as Blue Plate Chili or Rigatoni and Cheese, in developing this book I've also had great fun experimenting with more exotic dishes that reflect the expanding horizons of home cooking in our global world. Creamy Braised Fennel, with an intriguing sauce flavored with lemon and saffron and Parsnip and Coconut Curry with Crispy Shallots are two favorites that represent Mediterranean and South-East Asian cultures, respectively I particularly enjoy using herbs and spices in such dishes as Caribbean Pepper Pot Soup, Black Bean Torta and Vegetable Curry with Pepper and Cilantro Tadka. And I love updating old standards such as French Onion Soup or transforming dishes such as Stroganoff into a vegetarian version.

There's more to using a slow cooker than putting food on the table. In my opinion, the meals it allows you to prepare nourish both body and soul. Made from fresh and wholesome ingredients, with levels of fat and salt controlled by the home cook, slow cooker dishes are certainly nutritious. But more than that, they offer a reassuring antidote to the stresses of our fast-paced, high-tech age. There are few experiences more pleasurable than arriving home to be greeted by the appetizing aroma of a simmering soup or stew, the kinds of dishes that the slow cooker excels at producing.

About six million slow cookers are sold every year. This makes it one of our most popular appliances, which isn't surprising since it is also one of the easiest to use. Once the food is in the slow cooker, you can usually forget about it until it's ready to serve. With the slow cooker's help, anyone can prepare delicious food with a minimum of attention and maximum certainty of success. I sincerely hope you will try these recipes and that you will enjoy them and make the slow cooker a regular part of your life.

    Excellent

    Excellent recipes. Most require quite a number of ingredients and quite a bit of prep time compared to typical meat-based slow cooker recipes, but this is probably inherent in the vegetarian approach. All fresh and high-quality ingredients--no onion soup mix here. Results are excellent. The variety of the recipes is very good. Strongly recommended.
