Summary: Zensational!
Comment: This is a great book! The recipes are delicious and easy to follow. After buying the book I immediately made the Broccoli Rabe with Ginger, Honey and Lemon. Delicious! You don't necessarily have to be a vegetarian to enjoy these wonderfully tasty and easy to prepare meals. Included with the recipes are beautifully descriptive and evocative commentaries about life at the Zen monastery where the authors practice. These descriptions add a unique dimension to this "gem" of a cookbook. A perfect addition to my kitchen library and a great gift book!

Summary: A wonderful book
Comment: Don't let the tone of the 1 star review mislead you. After cooking with this book for about 3 month and have tried about 1/4 of the recipes from this book, I think I can say, with a certain conviction, that this is a wonderful book. My personal favorites are "Sauteed kale with Soft Tofu", "Roasted Butternut Squash" and "Sauteed Beets and Hijiki", not all all luxurious but, rather, simple and fullfilling food. I also enjoy the excerpts written by Myochi; wonderful glimpses into aspects of Zen practice. In comparison to "A Taste of Heaven and Earth" by Bettina Vitell, also a former Tenzo, this book is much simpler in range but having also cooked with Vitell's book, I think 3 Bowls is the winner for me.

Summary: One that gets used the most
Comment: I was fortunate enough to take a cooking class from Seppo Ed Farrey and it was a marvelous experience. I bought this cookbook right after class. From something as simply delicious as Rosemary Cider to something as delightful as Lemon Cilantro Vegetable Soup I can always find something to soothe and satisfy in this book. I have given it as a gift to friends and family and all enjoy it. Seppo Ed Farrey is an excellent teacher who is very sincere about mindful cooking. This will always be one of the basics in my kitchen.
