The #1 bestseller that presents seasonal, sustainable, and delicious recipes from Dr. Andrew Weil's popular True Food Kitchen restaurants.

When Andrew Weil and Sam Fox opened True Food Kitchen, they did so with a two-fold mission: every dish served must not only be delicious but must also promote the diner's well-being. True Food supports this mission with freshly imagined recipes that are both inviting and easy to make.

Showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients and simple preparations with robust, satisfying flavors, the book includes more than 125 original recipes from Dr. Weil and chef Michael Stebner, including Spring Salad with Aged Provolone, Curried Cauliflower Soup, Corn-Ricotta Ravioli, Spicy Shrimp and Asian Noodles, Bison Umami Burgers, Chocolate Icebox Tart, and Pomegranate Martini.

Peppered throughout are essays on topics ranging from farmer's markets to proper proportions to the benefits of an anti-inflammatory diet. True Food offers home cooks of all levels the chance to transform meals into satisfying, wholesome fare.

Disappointed that restaurant recipes are not included

Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2017

Verified Purchase

True Food Kitchen in Walnut Creek is my favorite restaurant so I was excited to buy this cookbook. The recipes are interesting and inspiring, but I was disappointed that all of my favorites from the restaurant menu are not included. It really shouldn't have the restaurant's name on it if the recipes are not from the restaurant.

True Foods, needs a little help before 2nd edition

Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2013

Verified Purchase

Andrew Weil is a healthy life-style guru, and I have purchased several of his books. It's clear to me that several of the reviewers have been given complimentary copies of the book to review and they simply proceeded to write a book report without having made any of the recipes. Often times, as in this case, the recipes for a restaurant quantities are not accurately translated for home use. For a seasoned pro, this may not be a problem. However, if you plan on giving this gift to a beginning cook, they may have problems with it. I have made 12 recipes so far, and the wonderful part about most of them is the abundant use of fresh whole foods, and the frugal use of fats, salt and sugar.

If I had edited the book in advance, I would have advised that a "crustless quiche" is more commonly known as frittata on page 25. I would suggest you omit the baking soda in the Carrot-Parsnip-Zucchini Bread on page 26,and add 1 Tablespoon of baking powder instead. One medium carrot and one medium parsnip and one small zucchini does not mean anything. I used 4 cups total shredded vegetables. That works. Also,you must line your bread pans with paper if you are using olive oil instead of butter to keep the bread from sticking. Or use non-stick pans.

The Fattoush Salad on page 70 is a winner and will appeal to almost everyone. The Moroccan Chicken Salad on page 87 is the best low fat version of chicken salad you will ever find. You will never guess that it has so little mayonnaise! The Sweet Potato-Poblano Soup is wonderful but 3 quarts of water to 5 vegetables has got to be an error. If you double the amount of vegetables you will be fine, otherwise you will end up with a lot of extra broth and nothing like the photograph!

The Bison Chili on page 110 is excellent, with a flavor profile enhanced by a wide array of herbs, spices, and chocolate! The Miso-Marinated Black Cod on page 132 was not worth all the trouble when the fresh fish would have tasted better if it were naked! I would only mask the fish if it were not perfectly fresh.

The Chicken Enchiladas on page 145 were fabulous. The fresh tomatillo salsa is easy and incredibly delicious. You may want to double the recipe and make a blender full. The recipe neglected to tell you what to do with the corn after you browned it, but assumes you will figure it out. Contrary to the recipe you will need 3/4 cup of salsa, not 1/4 for the bottom of the pan, which should be 9 X 12 since they didn't specify. And you will have plenty of filling for 12 6" tortillas, not just 6 as the recipe reads.

The photography is beautiful but doesn't always relate to the recipe. Why show steel cut oats next to a recipe for granola that calls for old-fashioned rolled oats?

"True Foods", is evidence that Andrew Weil's recipes have evolved to the point where there is absolutely no sacrificing flavor for health. True Food will introduce you to new techniques, new food combinations, and new ingredients. That's a big accomplishment for any cookbook!

Beautiful Book, But Recipes are Too Complicated for Me

Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2019

Verified Purchase

I love Dr. Weil's advice on health and wellness and this is a gorgeous book...however, it is definitely for people that have fantastic cooking skills and have lots of time in the kitchen...I do not. Several recipes list ingredients not readily available in my area. Maybe good for occasional dinner parties, but not everyday cooking for me.

Very Disappointing For Me

Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2019

Verified Purchase

I was hoping this cookbook would contain some recipes that are actually served in our True Foods Kitchen locally. Not a one. Had I read the reviews more thoroughly, I would have discovered that fact as well as some ingredients may not be available locally (easily). I am also not a fan of bison and there were a couple of recipes in there using this meat. All in all, a total disappointment. I think there is one recipe I might cook in this cookbook. Alas...the restaurant is wonderful, this cookbook not so much.

Amazing and Phenomenal. Healthy but palatable recipes for the food snob.

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2013

Verified Purchase

I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to write this one.

Reading through the small handful of negative reviews, I couldn't help but feel like a snob. Seriously though; what sort of food palates do those negative reviewers have? How could anyone with any good aesthetic sense think that this cookbook is below anything but phenomenal? When asking for a review or opinion, you must always consider the source. Everyone has an opinion, but the validity of said opinion must be considered.

I must admit that I'm a bit of a cookbook junkie. After every binge of cookbook buying sprees, I swear that I will not buy another one. With this latest purchase I may actually keep that promise. I came across a review of this cookbook along with a few others on a NYC wellness site, while innocently looking for juicing ideas. This was one of 4 cookbooks I purchased. The problem with Amazon is the premise that "you can always return them". Alas, I am keeping 3 out of 4 amongst this latest set of buys. I have to say True Food is not only the best of the bunch, it has immediately become one of my top 5 favorite cookbooks of all time.

I love reference books, & have been known to hold onto cookbooks even if I only like 20% of the recipes. This is one of the super rare instances where I would have to say 85% of all the recipes appeal to me, and the 15% that don't, I can tweak the ingredients to my palate (ie. instead of soba noodles for the asian recipes I would substitute naeng myon) or changing or adding the proteins featured or perhaps tweaking with vinegars, juices, honey or spices. The core of all the recipes though are solid. I did notice a mistake on page 85 while reading the Quinoa tabbouleh recipe, as the picture next to it clearly had no quinoa in sight and had strawberries,bulgur wheat and walnuts; ingredients obviously not featured in the facing recipe. Freaked out momentarily thinking that the recipe was left out, but looked in the index under strawberries and found the recipe on page 22. Funny thing was that I had initially dismissed this recipe, but after seeing the picture, added it to my "must makes".

As far as menu planning goes, this cookbook is amazing in it's cohesiveness. Usually the "basics" section of most cookbooks use their "basics" in only one or maybe two recipes. I was happy to see that the mushroom broth and dashi were used in several recipes, making menu planning a breeze. There's nothing worse than making a quart of a basic and wasting it because of the lack of usage in recipes. Bravo to the writers for doing this. Seems obvious, but surprisingly a common problem amongst even the best of cookbooks.

The recipes are equally influenced by asian, italian and mediterranean/california cuisine. It reminds me of a small restaurant in SF circa 90's called Ori-Italia, but with a very healthy twist (ie. sans the french butter influence)
Also, as an avid reader of cookbook and recipe publications for over 20 years, I have to say this is the best balance of healthy eating and gourmet that I have EVER seen. Although I own a few Raw Food and vegan cookbooks, this book has actual palatable recipes that make you believe that healthy yet delicious food is possible. All I can say is, I may actually not buy another cookbook, until these authors come out with another one! Wish they had a restaurant in NYC, but this book will have to suffice I suppose.

Idk why there are all these negative reviews claiming there are no recipes from the restaurant. There are a bunch, dare I say most of them are from the restaurant. Glad I bought the book regardless of those bad reviews. Those reviewers must not go to the restaurant often or try various dishes on the ever changing menu. Get this book it's a great addition to any cookbook collection.

Pour avoir mangé en Octobre au restaurant de Walnut Creek, je peux témoigner de l'excellence des mets. Dr Weil a su développer une approche alimentaire nutritive au plus haut point, en compagnie d'un chef et associé. Un excellent livre avec plein de nouveautés gustatives. La salade de Kale est sublime ainsi que les boulettes de bison en soupe! Je le recommande fortement!
