6 NOTES ON USING THE RECIPIES This recipe book is totally vegan and I think all the recipes have been tried and adjusted. They are delicious and should satisfy vegetarians and omnivores equally. I rarely use the term ”vegan” because it is a vegan cookbook. When listing the ingredients Tbs = tablespoons and tsp = teaspoons. I think this is easier to distinguish, but in the text I have used the full words. Olive oil used to be a big no-no for frying, but lately it is said to be the best oil for frying as it has a relatively high smoke point. I still like to fry in canola oil, but leave it up to you which to choose or whether to combine them. Most recipes in cookbooks say “1 tablespoon oil”. I rarely think that is enough, and although I’ve kept the terminology I mean “pour in enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan.” When you are frying and after a few minutes if there doesn’t seem to be enough oil you can spray some water into the pot to rehydrate it, without adding more oil. I don’t use canned oil spray because of its environmental effect. Instead I have a silicone brush that I use with the appropriate oil to oil the bottom of a pan.
