I've preferred veggie burgers for over 25 years, I've had some amazing ones and many not so tasty burgers. For unknown reasons they remain one of the few food items I'm more likely to purchase prepared so all I need to do is heat it. Olsson's book, Veggie Burger Atelier, provides me with the tools I need to learn to create my own amazing veggie burgers. It's all about understanding how combinations of the four basic elements: texture, flavor, firmness, and juiciness can create the ultimate burger, or not. The photos are clear, bright, and make every burger look appetizing. Ingredient measures are listed in both imperial and metric, a small detail I appreciate. Recipe inspiration spans the globe and considers that it may not be possible to find special ingredients. In addition to many vegetarian instructions there are often vegan recommendations and recipes to bring a similar flavor and texture experience. This book shows off the ease of making and versatility of veggie burgers.

I love this book! It's full of great information on vegetarian cookery and, of course, how to make a great veggie burger, including all the sides, toppings, condiments and breads you need to go with the burger patties.

The introduction and information at the beginning about how to put together your burger is really useful. You are not only given recipes in this book but also a basis to make your own recipes and how to swap out ingredients successfully.

I'm always looking for new recipes that I can try out and test on my meat eating friends and family. This book gave me a lot of ideas to future meal planning!

If you're looking for a book on veggie burgers, then this is the one for you. Chocked full of delicious recipes from simple to more detailed, any burger you pick will be the right choice. Great for any library looking to build on their non-meat based cookbooks.

What beautiful pictures and delicious recipes. "Veggie Burger Atelier" is a very well-produced book and the content will win over those who are on the fence about eating and enjoying vegan burgers. I also appreciate the gluten-free options. Just thinking about this book is making my mouth water - I will definitely recommend it to all my vegan friends.

Yummy! At last something for vegetarians. I have tried a couple of recipes but am looking forward to trying many more. A great book.

As a vegan and life long vegetarian I am always happy to see new plant based cookbooks for my kitchen . This cookbook is so exceptional as its meticulous in detail and content. The recipes here are easy to make,, far superior to any other veggie burgers you may know and extraordinary photographed. These are also very healthy and all are good for you. I was surprised by the wonderful variety here using more plant based ingredients then I had previously considered for my veggie burgers. This is a cookbook to buy for your kitchen and refer to often. I have made many of the recipes and they are all a big hit in my household. Very highly recommended !

This was a great read, numerous options for all types of burgers. Simple, complex, and easy to follow directions. Perfect timing for the spring and summer time for when you have some fussy eaters and want to try new things. Not your normal seitan and black bean recipes, there’s a good variety here.

The older I get the more I just can't tolerate most meats, both the damage farming does to the environment and the way eating a lot of meat just makes me really ill to my stomach. So a book dedicated to the delicious joy that is veggie burgers was right up my alley! I really enjoyed his cookbook and plan on adding it to my personal collection.

Such an interesting book. Very yummy recipes, well explained and easy to follow.
I really enjoyed reading and want to try some.
Strongly recommended.
Many thanks to Netgalley and Quarto Publishing

Totally love this book. It’s, fresh and filled with inspiration to eat better veggie burgers. We have tried several already with friends who loved them.

Planning to give a book to a friend who hates burgers, this will change their mind for sure.

Yummy, delicious food. Do try the recipes.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this book.

Wow this book is really magical, I'm not vegetarian but this book really has some yummy looking and tasting burgers. Both the Greek zucchini burger and the broadbean burger are lovely, but not only does this book provide recipes for burgers, but it also has condiments and buns - love to try out the green or black bun.
The photos are superb, the recipes very easy to follow (or not if you want to modify on the run). Yes they take a bit of planning and time but the end result is outstanding.
There are southern, and northern European versions as well as Asian and the Americans flavours. No excuse not to have veggie burger, and if you are a vegetarian this is burger heaven.

I'm not a vegetarian, but was curious to see what types of recipes would be in this book for replacement burgers. A bit too fancy-shmancy for my particular taste, but the recipes were extremely diverse and interesting. Would recommend for people who are adventurous in the kitchen and open to trying new foods and recipes.

Olsson states that there are four essential elements that make a successful veggie burger: texture, flavor, firmness, and juiciness. In her new release, she follows these basic guidelines and showcases a mouthwatering array of burgers that are sure to delight the taste-buds of even the most skeptical carnivore.

Recipe Highlights:
The Northener made up of mostly parsnips, smoked tofu and black beans smells as good as it tastes and will transport eaters to the North Sea with its unique Scandinavian flavor profile. The Dutch Seaport Burger is ideal for a cookout on a warm afternoon with its combination of cauliflower and kale. And if it's a hearty burger you crave, be sure to try the Lachmacun Burger made with mushrooms, lentils and sun-dried tomatoes that is sure to satisfy.

And since a burger wouldn't be complete without a tasty side and dips, Ollsson includes a variety of refreshing sides and condiments to accompany these recipes. My favorites were the Lime Zhug that originates from Yemen, the curry ketchup and the apple and fennel slaw.

While Ollsson created her own delicious recipes, she encourages the home cook to experiment with ingredients and flavors to find their own favorite match-ups by including a cheat sheet glossary at the end for easy reference.

A great selection of recipes. Very easy to follow and great results from having tried a few. Also love the addition of recipes for extras such as sauces.

Every single burger on this book looks scrumptious. I thank NetGalley for the ARC, but I had to buy a copy. The book not only includes the recipe for the patties, but also to bake your own burger buns, and make delicious accompaniments like ketchup and slaw.

Oh my goodness... This is one of the most mouth-watering cook books ever for me.
It really knocks down the boring sloppy veggie burger and brings a lot of flavours and interesting delicious combinations I've never seen anywhere before. For example, The Lachmacun burger! Can't wait to try it.
It's divided into continental sections where you can enjoy flavours of different part of the worlds. Veggie patties are not the easiest to prepare and beware that you'll need a lot of ingredients to make these ones, but it's really a great addition to any healthy-eating person's kitchen shelf and I bet you'll surprise your dinner guests who'll keep asking you: what's in it?

Super ideas for sprucing up veggie burgers, with so many different condiment choices and buns. Valuable book, with super suggestions for flavor, firmness, juiciness, and texture. Recommended, even for us meat eaters, who choose to turn more and more meals meatless!

Loveeeeeed this veggie cookbook!! So many plant based meals that aren't all too mimic the taste of meat instead is just delicious different flavours. Honestly, I haven't tried the burger recipes yet because I have been strapped for time but I have learnt how to crisp shallots, pickle onions (which is weirdly my new late night salad snack), make olive tapenade and sweet potato chips and they have all turned out fantastic! Can't wait to try making the actual burgers.

The layout of the book was well done, the photos are mouthwatering and the recipes have been easy to follow. Recommend this book to anyone with a love of burgers and looking for tasty veggie recipes.

Well, this title is pretty self-explanatory! Veggie Burger Atelier is a cookbook especially for veggie burgers, but Nina Olsson gives you all the extras as well with recipes for burger buns, various sauces, and some other complementary recipes.

In the book, the recipes are divided according to regions. For me, this is both what I like most about the book and what I least like at the same time. Its positive because its refreshing, and it immediately brings up a feeling of wanderlust for that specific region, and that in turn makes my craving for the burgers even bigger. I didn't like it because all of the complimentary recipes were added to these chapters as well, rather than getting their own separate space, which I personally would have found handier.

The recipes itself seem very doable for both inexperienced and experienced cooks, but I do think that people who are not vegetarian 100% time could need some time to get familiar with all the ingredients… Nevertheless, this book makes me HUNGRY. The photos are gorgeous and that increases your appetite even more. Now, how am I going to decide which burger I will be making first? I’m still undecided between the Smörgas burger (because 100% yum) and the Dutch Seaport Burger (because seaweed, and well the obvious reason that I would be just the perfect test subject for it, given that I am Dutch).

I received a digital review copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are entirely my own. My review is susceptible to changes in the final copy of this work.

All taken together, I rate this book 3,5 out of 5 stars.
