I'm always pleased to hear of cook books that may be useful. You may have saved me the $20 price of this one. Vegan bakers have been using Earth Balance margarine for years as an excellent substitute for butter. I'm surprised it isn't available in Minnesota. Of course, I'm writing from Berkeley, Ca,"Gan Eden" for vegans. Another tip: You usually cannot substitute oil for butter in equal amounts. Fortunately, there is a web page that provides a quick easy table for calculating: http://www.amazingoliveoil.com/substitute-olive-oil-for-butter.html I can't tell from any of the reviews whether enough recipes are egg free or easily adapted using egg substitute so I'm passing until I see a copy in person. Thanks for the information. I am a kosher vegan baker. I’m always pleased to hear of cook books that may be useful. You may have saved me the $20 price of this one.
