   @uxmark I am glad that you like it and, even more so, that you use it.

   I had a quick look at the deets online - lots of vegetable dishes included but few "vegetarian" ones ie that include some vegetarian protein. 😢 I could only find 13, at a quick browse, mostly tofu.

   Still, wok cooking is awesome. Quick meals, one pan, very tasty.

     @LifeTimeCooking @uxmark I’d say this book is great for technique and inspiration, but also that in general Chinese wok cooking isn’t vegetarian friendly unless one searches for vegetarian Buddhist Chinese cookbooks. We really don’t have much beyond tofu (and even then many of our tofu dishes are not veg). The Vegan Chinese cookbook and all of Hannah Che’s work including her newsletter would be good

     @LifeTimeCooking @uxmark Kenji’s the wok is the first English language book to capture 80% of wok cooking skills and technique, and I always recommend it for that reason
