Eight years ago, in response to popular demand, we published the first volume of “Pure Taste, Pure Mind”. This first cookbook met with great response and was reprinted several times. Venerable Master Miao Lien often said that in order to encourage others to be vegetarian, we need to make vegetarian dishes that taste better than meat. That is how the original idea to publish a cookbook full of delicious vegetarian recipes came about. And just as the 20th anniversary of the temple was coming around, we started working hard on the second volume of “Pure Taste, Pure Mind” to share with everyone.
As the first volume was based on Chinese cuisine, the second one is based on dishes originating from a variety of cultures, making it even more fitting with Canadian multiculturalism. However, cooking, photography, design and translation are not the main professions of the members of our volunteer team, which posed some difficulty. Fortunately, two professional Western chefs joined us to provide French, British, Italian, American and Mediterranean-style dishes. We continued to add other dishes such as Japanese sushi and ramen, Thai curry, Vietnamese hot and sour soup and many others, successfully completing this second volume. In order to facilitate our Chinese readers, we have provided photos of the less common ingredients.
