Alison Holst has been inspiring New Zealand
vegetarians in the kitchen for nearly 50 years, and she returns with another
fantastic collaboration with her son Simon. The Holst’s vegetarian cookbooks – Very Easy Vegetarian, Meals without Red Meat and Meals without Meat, which has sold over
250,000 copies – have been dependable kitchen companions to a wide range of
Kiwi cooks for years.
This
Ultimate Vegetarian Collection (being launched at Cook the Books this evening) is a
compilation of the best from all their books – in one chunky volume with over 400 recipes and tips in one volume. It will appeal to both vegetarians and meat eaters, and to those who want to cut down their meat consumption
and those who are looking for the perfect dish to make for their vegetarian
friends and family. The Holsts’ focus on economical and easy – but tasty –
meals is carried through in this collection.
With
over 400 hundred classic recipes, divided into 14 chapters, such as:
breakfasts, light lunches, beans, pulses and tofu, pies and pastries, and
desserts and sweets, there is something for everyone – even the meatiest meat
eater! The beginning of the book provides a useful nutritional and pantry
guide, and a glossary and comprehensive weights and measures guide is included
for quick reference. This superb vegetarian collection is a must-have in every
Kiwi home.
In 2011 Alison
completed her 100th book (30 co-authored with Simon), the sales of these total
in excess of 4.3 million copies (sales of our joint titles are over 1.7
million copies). She has also
contributed to various newspaper columns and TV shows over the years Alison Holst QSM CBE , New Zealand’s long-reigning culinary queen, has achieved both national
