Description
THE classic vegetarian cookbook, reissued for a new generation.
Cranks was a chain of English wholefood vegetarian restaurants from 1961 until the early ‘90s. It was founded and owned by David and Kay Canter and Daphne Swann, and its flagship restaurant was at Marshall Street in the West End of London. Europe’s most famous name in gourmet vegetarian dining, Cranks established an outstanding reputation for quality and style in its restaurants.
With helpful notes on techniques, and numerous delicious recipes for soups, starters, salads, dressings, sauces and savouries, not to mention sections devoted to baking, puddings, cereals, preserves, sweetmeats and drinks, the founders of Cranks have put together a book that stands for all that is best in wholefood cuisine. Their aim is to give people the opportunity to experiment with vegetarian food to experience the benefits of a more balanced diet.
