I’ve recently adopted a vegetarian diet and have been enjoying vegan cooking. As much as online recipes are useful there’s still nothing quite like a physical cookbook. I have a small collection of recipe books but most are very much centered on the use of animal products and so they are of fairly limited use to me now. I’ve been looking at the Food Not Bombs books as well as some of the America’s Test Kitchen books but I’m curious as to what this community can recommend.

Edit: Thank you for all of the responses! I now have a lot to look into and I apologize for not really being able to respond to all of you individually.

    Not strictly vegan, but vegetarian-focused and thus a lot of the recipes are either vegan or can be easily adapted to be vegan: the Moosewood cookbooks. I have the Moosewood Restaurant Cooks at Home by the Moosewood Collective, but there’s also The Moosewood Cookbook by Mollie Katzen, not sure how much difference there is between the two. Moosewood was one of the OG’s in putting vegetarian cuisine on the map, and they’ve grown to be a highly influential institution for vegetarian and vegan chefs.
