''Laurel's Kitchen'' is a vegetarian cookbook, first published in 1976, that contributed to the increasing awareness of vegetarian eating in the US.〔 Its authors were Laurel Robertson, Carol Flinders, and Bronwen Godfrey, and its subtitle was ''a handbook for vegetarian cookery & nutrition''. A second edition, ''The New Laurel's Kitchen'', was published in 1986. It had the same subtitle and the same first two authors, and Brian Ruppenthal was the new third author. The book has sold over a million copies.〔The back cover of the 1986 edition states "over a million copies sold" (see link ()).〕 The same authors have published related ''Laurel's Kitchen'' books on breadmaking and caregiving. ==Influence== The book has been mentioned in many magazines. For example: : *In 1994, the ''Vegetarian Times'', a leading magazine for vegetarians, surveyed the most admired cookbooks among a "panel of cookbook authors, food editors, and chefs." ''The New Laurel's Kitchen'' was the "clear winner" for "best cookbook for beginners" (p. 107).〔Sharon Bloyd-Peshkin (1994, November). (Cookbooks You Can't Live Without ). ''Vegetarian Times'', pp. 106-108, accessed 8 Nov 2009.〕 : *In 1978, ''Yoga Journal'' contained two reviews of ''Laurel's Kitchen'', by different authors.〔Freda E. Elliott (pp. 52, 64); Suza Norton Hebenstreit (pp. 53-55) (both 1978, March/April, under same title). ( Vegetarian Cookery at Laurel's Kitchen ), issue 19.〕 ''Laurel's Kitchen'' has also been discussed in scholarly work, as well as in reviews of scholarly work. For example: : *A book by Megan Elias (2008), published by the University of Pennsylvania Press, devoted 9 pages to analyzing the book and its place in American culture, contending that "''Laurel's Kitchen'' was as much a lifestyle guide as it was a cookbook" (p. 153).〔''Megan J. Elias (2008). (Stir it up: home economics in American culture )''. Philadelphia, PA: University of Pennsylvania Press. ISBN 0-8122-4079-0. (NB: ''Laurel's Kitchen'' is discussed in pp. 152-160)〕 : *A scholarly review stated that Elias "gives the renowned countercultural cookbook ''Laurel’s Kitchen'' its proper due in American history.... she sees Laurel Robertson and her comrades Carol Flinders and Bronwyn Godfrey struggling, in an intelligent and heartfelt way, against the manipulations of the market, which devalued nutritious food, meaningful domestic labor, and communal connections" (p. 417).〔Elizabeth Hearne & Robert D. Johnston (2009). (Raising the Roof: Science, Feminism, and Home Economics ). ''Reviews in American History'', v37 n3, pp413-419. .〕 : *A scholarly book by Mary Drake McFeely (2001) also spent several pages discussing ''Laurel's Kitchen'', which it described as "the Fannie Farmer of vegetarian cooking" (p. 142).〔Mary Drake McFeely (2001). (Can She Bake a Cherry Pie?: American Women and the Kitchen in the Twentieth Century ). Amherst, MA: University of Massachusetts Press.
