Mar 31, Simone rated it it was amazing Shelves: , nonfiction. Thank you for Netgalley for a copy in exchange for an honest review. I am a nerd. I am a huge, capital 'N' Nerd and I love all things bookish, tv-series-ish, film-ish or anything else geeky-ish. That obviously includes the food. I mean, what is Harry Potter without the constant mention of treacle tart, really?

Or the twelfth Doctor without his fishfingers and custards? Which means that I could not be more excited that there is a book for people like me. To re-make, re-live and be part of t Thank you for Netgalley for a copy in exchange for an honest review. To re-make, re-live and be part of their favourite fantasy world through the fabulousness that is good food. And holy guacamoly is Cassandra doing a good job. If anyone here is not familar with her blog, why not? Please check it out right after this review.

And after you've ordered this cook book. First off, this book is just lovely to look at. It is designed in a simple style but makes my nerdy heart sing whenever there is a colourful silhouette of a snitch. I honestly grinned to myself more than once, thinking "yep, that's it! The pictures along want to make you be really good at cooking, I promise you. Lastly, I have seen that Cassandra does have tips on making the dishes veggie or even vegan at least some of them - at least on her blog, which I highly appreciate.

If I had to say something negative at all, then it would be that there are no iZombie recipes in this book. But that is not negative after all because this can be taken as my appeal to Cassandra to maybe create a whole iZombie cookbook! Every episode starts off with Liv cooking, after all pretty, pretty, pretty please? So all that's left to say is: get your cosplays and aprons ready and COOK!

May 23, mad mags added it Shelves: reviewed , cookbooks. Full disclosure: I received a free electronic copy of this book for review through Edelweiss. Let me start out by saying that, as a vegan, what drew me to The Geeky Chef Cookbook wasn't so much the recipes as the intersection of food and pop culture.

Two of my favorite things, made exponentially better when mashed up together! I wouldn't exactly call myself a chef, but I do love to play with my food, and I'm no stranger to veganizing and recipie-zing is that a word? Kolaches, and of course waffles galore.

One of these years, I'd love to do a His Dark Materials theme, but the pressure! It's so intense! I'd even settle for half as much. I feel like it's my chance to introduce some vegans and veg-curious peeps to this amazing alternate universe, and I don't want to screw it up. My point is: Pop culture and food? Totally my jam. Even though I thought it unlikely that I'd actually make anything from The Geeky Chef Cookbook - or at least precisely as directed - I suspected I might enjoy it anyway, maybe even come away with some new ideas and a list of recipes to veganize.

And it's a really cute cookbook! A little on the short side, maybe, with a little more than 60 recipes, but lots of fun nonetheless. The recipes are loosely organized into seven categories: non-alcoholic beverages; alcoholic beverages; snacks and appetizers; soups and stews; entrees; cakes and cupcakes; and desserts.

Many recipes include a photos; however, since I was reading this on a Kindle, it's difficult to really get a feel for the aesthetics of the physical book. I know that many cookbook aficionados prefer glossy pages and lush, mouthwatering photos; from where I sit, the book looks pretty text-heavy.

Each region adapted the most positive aspects of the different cultures that came to the country and joined them to their most prepared dishes long before evidence was found of the consolidation of their culinary practice.

Similarly, climate and geography have had an impact not only on the ingredients they use but also on the techniques they apply to cooking them. Therefore, internationally Spanish cuisine is considered one of the most varied gastronomies.

The Vegan diet consists of consuming vegetables, fruits, cereals, legumes, nuts, seeds and algae. It is recognized as the most ethical diet since it avoids all foods of animal origin, including those obtained without violence such as milk or eggs.

It is a lifestyle committed to nature. They take it to the extreme of not using any product derived from animals, for example, leather shoes; neither does any cosmetic that has animal ingredients in its composition.

To understand the vegan philosophy, you have to think of a way of life of maximum respect for the animal world. It is also a current that opposes speciesism, that is, discrimination according to species. In fact, this is considered the main cause of animal exploitation. A vegetarian menu is a powerful and enjoyable way to achieve good health. The main characteristic of vegetarian food, and a common element to the different types of diets considered vegetarian in existence, is the suppression of animal meat.

Many people choose not to eat animal meat and sometimes not even animal products such as milk or eggs. The reasons for this are very varied: from moral issues, because they consider that it is not ethical to feed on another living being, to coherence with a lifestyle where respect for the environment and ecology is a priority.

Within the vegetarian gastronomy there are different types of diets, some more strict and others with a higher level of flexibility. Depending on whether it is followed more or less strictly, we can distinguish between different categories of vegetarian diet. Baking is an art, that has been practiced for thousands of years and has been present in the evolution and transformation of our societies.

It is through this trade, that bread is obtained, which is considered synonymous with food in many cultures and is part of the diet and form of cultural and religious expression in many peoples of the world.

Bakery and its practice, as well as the techniques of manufacture and the ingredients used to make bread, are influenced by the culture, tradition and culinary characteristics of the peoples, which vary from one place to another, giving it its own unique condition.

The taste for sweet foods goes back to the history of sugar basically, however, the use of sweet ingredients in a food preparation does not always mean that it is a dessert. Humanity has created a world driven by their senses, where they found in an activity as essential as eating, to develop skills to do so more consciously, efficiently, professionally and artistically.

Pastry making is the specialty of the bakery that focuses on making all kinds of desserts, and not just cakes. A pastry chef in a restaurant is in charge of creating delicatessen defined by sweetness, to this we can add that the pastry chef is in charge of using and handling the chocolate, candy, confectionery and other culinary techniques for making desserts.

An important aspect of pastry making is decoration. Because cakes and pies are usually served at banquets and celebrations, they are sought to be distinctive in appearance. That is why great care is taken in the presentation of the products. Cocktail making is also considered by many as an art, this is because their preparation by the bartender , an expert in drinks and recipes, involves the use of special and showy techniques, which using the nature and characteristics of the elements mixed result in a unique cocktail that is also used for a showy presentation.
