This is a great cookbook! I love all of the pictures accompanying the recipes, everything looks delicious. Noodles are one of my favorite things to eat/cook so I’m excited to try just about every single recipe.

Synopsis (from Netgalley, the provider of the book for me to review.)
*********************************************************

The first plant-based, pan-Asian noodle cookbook, featuring classics made vegan and exciting innovations

When author Cheynese Khachame became vegan, she brought her passion for Asian cuisine along for the ride. As she veganized—and improvised—her favourite recipes, TikTok followers ate it up!

Now, in Oodles and Oodles of Vegan Noodles, Cheynese plant-ifies popular dishes from Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, and China and offers entirely new noodle recipes. From cold to hot, soups to sauces, this cookbook fulfills all your wildest cravings—cozy up with a bowl of Vietnamese Pho, spice up your lunch with Soba Salad with Spicy Peanut Sauce, or give classic carbonara a twist with Udon Carbonara Japanese Style.

With more than fifty delicious plant-based recipes and mouthwatering photos, Oodles and Oodles of Vegan Noodles is your one-stop shop for meals to slurp!

I don't do TikTok and I have a step-stepson (oh you figure that one out) who only eats REAL CHINESE FOOD .. along with his body weight in poutine (REAL CANADIAN FOOD) so this book made me smile...not that he would ever eat vegan food. I happen to love udon noodles ...made anyway, any temperature so this book appealed to me. The recipes are very versatile and will appeal to vegans and you can easily add in different proteins to make them vegetarian or outright carnivore to satisfy all the different eaters in your home. This is a great book for the person who spends way too much money on take out and delivery as well as those who love to cook!
#shortbutsweetreviews

This is a great cookbook for vegans or those who just want to eat more vegan more often (i.e., me). It's got basics covered as well as some really cool variations, and I appreciated the range of Asian noodles covered (and the fact that the author always pointed out the origin of each recipe). I have so many new summer recipe ideas now, and I can't wait to try others out once it's cooler.

As a sometimes vegan, always vegetarian I love this cookbook! It all looks so good and is easy to make dishes.

5 stars

I'm vegan and cook 99.9% of what I eat, so I couldn't WAIT to crack this vegan noodle bonanza. I was NOT disappointed!

The book starts with a traditional section: pantry staples. This may be particularly useful for folks who are not vegan and/or who tend toward a more homogenous diet since the dishes here reflect a number of cultures. Then, readers get meaty (I couldn't resist!) sections on cold and hot noodle dishes, among others. Each recipe begins with a quick intro to the dish and often culture from which it comes and then has a clearly delineated list of directions and ingredients. The recipes appear clear and easy to follow, and the photos that accompany them left me feeling hungry and also making alterations to my shopping list. I've already bookmarked several of these and will be starting with Hakka Noodles, which I'm certain will be a June gloom (and beyond!) favorite!

Vegan cookbooks often look promising and are then filled with weirdly sugary and fatty substitutes (we don't need fake meat to live our best lives in the kitchen, you know?!), and there is often lacking variety in the recipe collection. As the title suggests, this is a cookbook for vegan NOODLES, so while there is definitely a running theme, there are many different styles, cooking methods, and cultures from which to choose. I'm excited to add quite a few of these recipes to my summer kitchen extravaganza and especially to my dinner plate!

I recommend this one for folks who love noodles, vegan and non-vegan alike!
