I spent some fruitless time yesterday searching for sites that had

something like gourmet vegetarian. I'd like to find recipes that were

more than the usual everyday recipes and format them for the group. I

tried the keyword vegetarian with - restaurant, recipe, gourmet and chef

with no noticable luck.

 

Anyone have any ideas?

More info on my search for Gourmet Vegetarian. I have requested all of

the Deberoh Madison books from my libray and will hand type (or figure

out my OCR) recipes from her truely wonderful books. That will take time

though.

 

I guess I'm looking for some really inovative recipes that are

vegetarian. I was hoping that there was something fresh online.

Formating to MC can be easer.

 

My inspiration for this topic is a restaurant in my area (Spokane, WA)

called " Mizumas. " It is so wonderful. The food is truly gourmet. My

familey went to dinner not knowing exactly what to expect and spent

litereally 5 hours eating (and talking.) A memorable experiance.

 

They used specialty gourmet ingredients (cheeses, nuts, herbs, imported

fruits, ect) along with very fresh vegetables.

Melody-

 

I understand a great gourmet veg cookbook is the Millennium Cookbook (pricey

though). It is named for a veg restaurant in San Francisco. I haven't seen

it, but on VegList people rave about it. It is on my " to get " list...

PS. If anyone has this book, please, please post some recipes. Thankx.

Melody and friends,

 

Just sipping my first cup o coffee, rubbing my eyes. You looking for

gourmet veg cookbook, eh? I don't know any in Spokane, but I know of one

restaurant that is pretty innovative and seems to lean lots towards

vegetarian; has a new cookbook and the place is in Seattle area. (The

owner used to be one of the owners of Streamliner Diner (they all sold to

new owners in 91), but this new place is much more gourmet -- well, by my

standards anyway Shittake-Orange Blossom Soup is adventerous.) Name of

cookbook? Kingston Hotel Cafe Cookbook. I think there are no beef

recipes, 2 chicken, quite a few seafood, but most of the others appear to

be vegetarian and lots of unusual combinations.

 

Samples:

Curried Oyster Scramble iwth Papaya-Mango Salsa

Thai Spiced Snow Pea and Prawn Soup w/ Red Rice

Chilled Peach Soup w/ Gingerroot and White Wine

Lemony Sorrel and Spinach Sauce

Potato, Sorrel, and Nettle soup

Avocado-Pumpkin Seed Salsa

Spicy Ancho Chile and Fresh Mozzarella Tamales

Potato-Tarragon Pancakes

Fettuccine w/ walnuts, asiago and spinach

Shakow Quince Soup

Comice Pear and Montrachet Omelet

Pear-Ginger Soup

Summer Ricotta Ravioli in Curried Peach Sauce

Mexican Fish Cakes w/ Avocado-Pumpkin Seed Salsa

Angel Hair Pasta w/Leeks, Asparagus, and Portobello Mushrooms

Braided Salmon and Halibut with Brandied Wild Blackberry Sauce

Four Mushroom Risotto

Gresh Soba noodles w/ Burdock Root, Ginger and Wild Greens

Curred Green Apple Soup w/ Coriander and Yogurt

Roasted Apple and Ginger Bisque

Lemony Polenta w/ Mascarpone and Berries

Split Soup of Beet-Lemon and Butternut-Orange

Lentil, Swiss Chard and Lemon Soup

Summer Strawberry Salsa

Holiday Scramble w/ Persimmon and Spinach

Fresh Raspberry Omelet w/ Orange Blossom Cream Cheese

Fresh Fig and Montrachet Omelet w/Fig Puree

 

How's that? :) Will keep my eyes open.... Now, I need somemore coffee.

Melody:

I just thought of another website for " gourmet vegetarian " recipes.

They are definitely not all vegetarian, but they do have a good selection

(put in " vegetarian " , " meatless " and other things in the search feature):

http://epicurious.com/

These are recipes from Gourmet, Bon Appetit, etc.
