Excited to read this book while keeping your critiques in mind! And love the vegan baking insight: applesauce as egg replacement has always struck me as more likely to turn people off than start a real learning experience!
I’m curious as to what you’ll make of it! And I’m glad you agree, I feel like there’s less blanket advice about egg replacers overall but it still irks me when I see it
agreed about applesauce! it's good with fat (pork chops) but i don't like imagining it as a fat replacement. i think it's partially just a personal thing as my main vegan has an apple allergy.
If it helps, The Serviceberry was originally just a stand-alone essay published in Emergence Magazine: https://emergencemagazine.org/essay/the-serviceberry/ I know she added to it to produce the book but there's only so much ground one can cover in the essay version of a novella. Hopefully she will be back with a deeper book because I would love some of the things you mentioned to also be addressed/covered, too! (here via someone sharing your link on Notes!)
