Super easy to follow recipes with the ingredients listed on the right and directions on the left. There are pictures of the dishes as well. At first I was a bit confused what image when with what recipe in the ebook version; however, if it was in viewed like a normal book it would make sense. I never realized how many different Vegan noodle dishes there were until I tried out this cookbook and all the dishes look and sound amazing. Only a few recipes have ingredients that may be a bit harder to find like bamboo shoots.

My only recommendation would have been to maybe have a little bit more spacing between lines in the directions to make it a bit easier to on the eyes when reading the recipe and trying to cook for some of the ones that have more steps.

I absolutely love being able to make a variety of different Asian style noodle dishes (included hot, sautéed, and cold dishes), as well as having recipes on how to make to soup stock, kimchi, sauces, etc. in the basic section of it. At the beginning there is descriptions of different noodles, spices, condiments, produce, and utensils that would be used throughout the cookbook.

A gorgeously visual collection of recipes that left me inspired and excited to try out new recipes in the kitchen.

As someone with a busy work schedule, it was nice to have delicious and approachable recipes to page through. I would highly recommend.

Thank you to NetGalley and to the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I was really excited for this book. I love noodles and it makes me a little sad when I see all these delicious looking recipes online and I get a little sad because they have meat. This book is perfect. There are tons of great recipes in this book. Enough to keep me busy for a long time.

If you love asian noodles and you're vegan, this is the book for you. So many noodle dishes that are normally not an option! Recipes seem mostly easy to follow and fairly simple, though there are a few that take more time/steps.

This is a great book, especially for people like myself that know very little about noodles. There is a great introduction to the various type of noodles, and so many recipes that are very yummy and made with vegans in mind. Easy to read, easy instructions to follow and great photographs of the dishes. A real must for anyone that wants to delve into these tasty meals.
Thanks you NetGalley and the publishers for the DRC

This book sadly feels more like a vegetable and noodles cookbook than vegan...

I received a free copy of this book from Netgalley (thank you!), and this is my honest review.

How fun to have a cookbook full of noodle recipes just from the perspective of someone who enjoys noodles from Asia. I thought the recipes were easy to follow. I just don't have all the ingredients readily available in my pantry. This would be a great activity if you had a themed friends dinner party.

I have always wanted to learn how to make Asian noodles from scratch. I am gluten-free and there are several recipes in this book that I can adapt to meet my dietary needs. I am looking forward to trying several of these recipes!

Small and mighty is what you can call this book! The recipes use authentic yet accessible ingredients, the directions are easy to follow, and the photographs are beautiful. An included list of pantry ingredients and tools are simple and informative. The best part, though, is the scale of the noodle recipes included in this cookbook. For people who live alone, or in small families, they are perfect. Readers can make one or two servings and not be bored after eating the leftovers for days on end. Top on the list to try are the Biang Biang and the Pad Thai.

Awesome noodle book for vegans and non-vegans alike! Full of delicious recipes, this has something for everyone! Lovely photos, and with a expansive chapter in the beginning of the book on pantry staples, this book is all you need to make noodles for days!

I can't wait to make some of these recipes! Thank you Netgalley and The Experiment for the ARC!

A lovely vegetarian cookbook, ideal for people who love Asian recipies and have trouble adapting their vegetarian diet to still include some of those flavours we love.
I adore noodles, especially the various Chinese and Vietnamese ways of preparing them, as well as the amazing Japanese dunking noodles recipes... so I couldn't resist a cookbook with that title.
But, I'm very divided because there are a lot of great things here, for example, recipes for key ingredients: a vegetarian alternative to oyster sauce and fish sauce. Also the Korean recipies were new to me. I have attempted playing around with the sweet potato starch ones and thick cylindrical ones with disappointing results so it's good to have some guidance. But I feel like a few recipes were a little too similar, and things I had hoped to see were not there, like the wide range of dunking noodles, but that might just more of a statement to my own tastes.

I love noodles but I don't get to eat them very often. I can't go to most Asian restaurants because of the husband's food allergies. I was excited to find a plant-based noodle book so I could make them at home.

Most of the ingredients in this book are easily found in well-stocked grocery stores.

The photography in the book is outstanding. Everything looks so good. There are several recipes that I could make without any modifications for allergies. Others could be modified easily.

There are several standard soup bases that have recipes here along with vegan substitutions for oyster and fish sauces. Those are nice recipes to have on hand if you need them.

I'll definitely be saving a few of these recipes to make if we want some Asian food. The only issue is that most of the dishes have many ingredients and are not quick to make. These would be recipes to make on days when you have a lot of time to devote to making dinner.

Amazing recipes for all kinds of ramen! This is the first time ive seen ramen vegan recipes that actually had so many options. How to make your own noodles, broth, sides, and toppings. I would definitely buy this for all my friends.

Lots and lots of cold noodle recipes. I loved that there is a lot of photos so you can see the difference between the different ingredients and noodle types.

Can’t wait to cook something from this awesome collection! I so appreciate the variety of noodles here—so many of which I haven’t cooked with before. I’ll definitely be making the chili crunch sauce, along with the vegan fish sauce alternative. Although I’m vegetarian, I feel like all types of eaters could appreciate these recipes and adjust to fit their preferences as needed!
