vegan

Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of any product created by or obtained from any living creature.
Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of animal products, particularly in diet, and an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of animals. A follower of the diet or the philosophy is known as a vegan. Distinctions may be made between several categories of veganism. Dietary vegans refrain from consuming animal products, not only meat but also eggs, dairy products and other animal-derived substances. The term ethical vegan is often applied to those who not only follow a vegan diet but extend the philosophy into other areas of their lives, and oppose the use of animals for any purpose. Another term is environmental veganism, which refers to the avoidance of animal products on the premise that the industrial farming of animals is environmentally damaging and unsustainable. Interest in veganism increased in the 2010s, especially in the latter half. More vegan stores opened and vegan options became increasingly available in supermarkets and restaurants in many countries.

    Recipe Vegan "Butter Chicken"

    OK so yes, the version I make is dairy-free and meat-free butter chicken sauce, which kind of defeats the name, but you'll know roughly what to expect. It does have a good list of ingredients because I like flavour and I like to make things from scratch. So if you want an easy life, please just...

This recipe uses less than a full...

    Recipe Black eyed bean salad

    Ground coriander seed, coriander leaves (cilantro) and clementine add a delicate aromatic flavour to this simple salad. You could substitute a different type of bean but I think the firm texture and nutty, earthy flavour of black eyed beans works well here. Ingredients 1 400g can black eyed...

    Recipe Vegan Coriander Pesto

    Recipe Vegetarian Marinated Tofu and Edamame Stir Fry

    We are all familiar with the 4 basic food tastes - bitter, sweet, sour and salty. The Japanese have added a fifth that they call Umami. Umami translates, if I may coin a word, to savoryness. Foods that have umami share some chemicals and receptors in common. These foods are things like meat...
