Quantcast Vegetarian StarAmanda Cohen Sample Recipes From “Dirt Candy” Cookbook

Dirt Candy A Cookbook

Amanda Cohen‘s interview with the New York Daily News times perfectly with the release of her cookbook, Dirt Candy: A Cookbook: Flavor-Forward Food from the Upstart New York City Vegetarian Restaurant.

Cohen gave readers a preview of some of the recipes they’ll find in the cookbook bearing the same name as her New York vegetable restaurant like hush puppies with maple butter and kimchi doughnuts.

“I love cookbooks and have hundreds at home, but I wanted to make one that I would be so excited to buy, take home and read, and not just because it was from a certain restaurant,” Cohen said.

One of the things she prides herself on about the Dirt Candy cookbook is that the recipes can be made without any fancy vegetable from an exotic market that some may not be able to access.

“It can be intimidating when people say they only use heirloom vegetables or only shop at the farmers’ market,” she said. “It’s great that it can help people get into the kitchen, but it can also keep people out of the kitchen.”

Cohen’s recipes for Portobello Mousse, Smoked Cauliflower and Waffles, and Sweet Pea and Mint Nanaimo Bar and Sweet Pea and Mint Ice Cream will keep readers in the kitchen for awhile. Grab the recipes and read the entire interview with Cohen at New York Daily News.
