The author of the bestselling "From a Monastery Kitchen" returns
with a new collection of 170 soup recipes--at least one for every
vegetable native to North America. From basic veloutes and
consommes to thick and chunky soups, and from simple clear broths
to creamy soups and more complex potages, "Twelve Months of
Monastery Soups" appeals to every taste.
Brother Victor established a lasting place in the cookbook world
with his From a Monastery Kitchen and 12 Months of Monastery Soups,
which have sold 1.5 million and 2.5 million copies respectively
worldwide. The Pure Joy of Monastery Cooking takes Brother Victor s
work a step further with his first fully illustrated cookbook. The
meatless recipes collected here capture the essence of culinary and
spiritual simplicity as lived at Our Lady of the Resurrection
Monastery. And simplicity is here integrated with the virtues of
frugality and prudence in a complete cookbook covering appetizers,
soups, salads, entrees, crepes, breads, sauces, and desserts.
Brother Victor s authentic message of simple elegance provides the
perfect culinary approach for today s world. The focus on local
ingredients, home cooking, and fine dining is an antidote to the
overhyped, overprocessed, and overproduced environment in which we
live and eat. Brother Victor s authenticity shines through in his
writing and in the gorgeous photographs taken in the pastoral
garden of the monastery where he developed these recipes. Every
cook and kitchen will delight in these 200+ recipes from Leeks
Vinaigrette (notable in light of Brother Victor s renowned
vinegars), to an extensive collection of egg and omelet dishes;
crepes and pancakes; vegetarian casseroles; pasta, rice, and
couscous dishes; vegetable courses; and desserts.
