  In case I forget to add this to the recipe after the book is indexed - I tried the vegan fish sticks and they actually taste like fish sticks. I didn't believe it would work but lo and behold it did. (Because I lacked the patience to fry them, I baked them in a 450-degree oven . . . frying would taste better - also because I'm not actually vegan I just used the tartar sauce that was already in my fridge)

Notes about Recipes in this book

• Radish Caprese

  • mjes on May 23, 2018

    This is great fun - limited by the difficulty of spearing the radishes on a plate. Getting radishes as close to bocconcini size when the radishes are peeled so a quick peak won't tell you what's on your fork is delightful but if they are easily identifiable you've not really lost anything. Can't wait to try it with the optional watermelon.

• Salty mezcal and cheese

  • Acarroll on October 10, 2022

    I don't understand what was going on here. I thought this would be something elevated that would be greater than the sum of it's parts. Nope, it was a salty tequila shot chased with cheese. Super disappointing, especially because I ruined a really nice bottle of mezcal by dumping salt in it.

• Pepperoni-crusted cod with pineapple

  • Acarroll on October 15, 2022

    This was ok. The pepperoni and pineapple worked well together but this fish just seemed kind of weird.

• Better tomorrow vegan chili

  • Acarroll on December 19, 2022

    This was fine, but by no means my favorite vegan chili. The walnuts were oddly crunchy, even after cooking for more than double the recommended time and letting sit overnight.
