haha! I love Cass’s advice. I never though of that benefit of a small kitchen.
And yes, Kelli, I think that this vegetarian cookbook is a wonderful book to start exploring vegetarian food. I really like it and “Vegetarian Cooking For Everyone” because they don’t just take pretty pictures of food. They really get in there and cover everything from muffins and pancakes to meatless dinners. I turn to them for everything. The vegetable sections are amazing. Martin loves the pizza ideas.

Wow! How cool is that?! Okay, I’ll try to stop complaining about my small kitchen!

Would you recommend that book for someone that doesn’t have a large food repertoire? I am working on becoming vegetarian but the biggest problem is that I need to stretch my tastes and learn new foods, but I still want to find some good cookbooks that can take me there slowly. ;)

Love that quote of his, and it’s so true! I’m really fascinated by the fact that a cookbook author manages in such a small space.

Cass’s comment about guests not pestering you in a tiny kitchen cracked me up. Bet that’s true! :-)

Hello Katie! Isn’t that something? We totally agree with that statement of his about the people that make these HUGE kitchens, then learn how to cook! Have a good weekend!

Having had miniscule kitchens in NYC apartments, and even in houses, I do know that cooking can be a dream in a tiny kitchen — or it can be a nightmare depending on how it’s laid out and set up. Mr Bittman’s seems workmanlike and logical — I like it.

Plus … guests don’t pester you in a tiny kitchen; you can growl and say “go AWAY” and people will obey.
