I saw a middle-eastern cookbook and was reminded of how vegetarian food is pretty solid everywhere outside of many parts of the Anglosphere. Even then, the stuff is there but it's not really given the thought it deserves.
I have a very, very old italian recipe book that my mom used when she was younger. I'm talking about 1980 edition. The book is about 200 recipes, 200 different names and a lot of different types of pasta. The last page, there's this one, single recipe, simply called "The vegetarian recipe" and that's all. Made me laugh and think that today would never be allowed to be printed this way.
