Jamie Oliver To Create Vegetarian Cookbook (Video)
Written by Vegetarian Star on September 15th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink, Videos.
Jamie Oliver has an exclusive interview with the Huffington Post where he revealed he plans to take all of his vegetarian recipes and put them into one collection.
Although Oliver insists every one of his cookbooks have always been at least 60% vegetarian, he’s giving veggies something they’ve always asked for in not having to wade through the recipes that aren’t pertinent. It will also prevent him from being assaulted by vegetables from the vegetarians who are tired of thumbing through the index to find what they need.
“Often I get cornered out by vegetarians who are going to knock me out with a cucumber. I’m like “dude, look in the back of the book. Open up the index and there’s all these little v’s.” And they’ll go “Oh, right, but we want out own book.” For many years I just felt like, “C’mon, stop being so sensitive.” But actually this year we’re going to bundle all of my vegetarian recipes and vegan recipes into one big massive, mammoth book and give ’em that book. Because it’s right. You know, in the old days there wasn’t so many vegetarians and now there’s many. Vegetarian as a general concept is a brilliant thing. We’ve got to stop eating so much meat. We are eating too much meat.”
You heard it first. If this vegetarian cookbook doesn’t make it to shelves soon, let’s all arm ourselves with celery bow and arrow and aim.
