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 Tarka Dahl Soup

    This is lovely comforting dish. It takes some inspiration from French onion soup which classically uses beef stock and indeed, you could use a light beef stock instead of the miso & Marmite. I just wanted to keep it vegan. The tarka with nutty toasted mustard seeds and fragrant curry leaves adds...

    Recipe Miso Braised Banana Shallots, Pac Choi & Ginger

    Easy as can be and low calorie, this makes a tasty vegan side dish. Cooking the shallots slowly means they caramelise and the sweet juices mingle with the tangy miso and salty soy sauce. The ginger adds a lovely heat to the dish. A wisp of toasted sesame oil added at the end adds a hint of nut...

    Recipe Scalloped Potatoes with Miso

    Scalloped potatoes are very easy to make but take a rather long time to cook. To speed up cooking time you can briefly par-boil the sliced potatoes but I prefer to slow cook them from raw because I think they absorb more flavour. They make a very pretty side dish if made individually but can...

    Recipe Chessboard Miso Rice

    After my first failed attempt to make this, where I cooked the black rice and white rice together, I decided to make this like two separate preparations, and then mix them together at the end. The first time, I cooked everything in an Instant Pot, with the intention of making a sort of risotto...

    Recipe Thai Coconut Miso Soup

    I've made Thai coconut soups before, but always with shrimp and fish sauce. This is one removes those, and instead leans on the miso paste to provide the savoriness. The result is a very good coconut soup that is also completely vegan. Ingredients 1 tablespoon sesame oil 2 tablespoons ginger...

    Recipe Red Onion Tart with Parsley and Parmesan

    Caramelised onions have a wonderful sweet flavour which works well with the slightly fruity and nutty taste of a good Parmesan. The parsley adds a mild bitter and mineral note which brightens the flavour. This makes a great simple vegetarian lunch together with a green salad. To make it vegan...

    Recipe Persian Herb, Bean and Wheat Stew (Ash-e-Sholeh-Ghalamkar)

    This is one of those dishes that is not only flexible with the quantities for the ingredients, mixing and matching with whatever you've got available but looks like an awfully complicated recipe and the truth is ,it isn't . It's actually quite simple and is just a question of timing of you're...

    Recipe Cream of Leek, Squash and Saffron Soup

    I was on the hunt for squash based soups because the local village runs a pumpkin festival each year and in the spring give away free squash plants. We picked one up last spring and now have a lovely large squash that needs a suitable recipe. And given that the current challenge is saffron, I...

    Recipe Pear, Verjuice and Saffron Butter

    This is one of those strange ones I came across 4 or 5 years ago now. The use of the term butter for the preservation of fruit. I believe it's an American term rather than a British one and refers to a pureed version of the fruit that is traditionally then cooked down into a thicker pureé in an...

    Recipe Cauliflower & Onion Pakoras (Indian)

    These are vegan. I love them. I had to do my best to re-create them after ordering them a couple times at an Indian restaurant a little out of my way for regular visits. More local restaurants to me seem to lack this wonderful food! This recipe is also gluten-free if that is something you...

    Recipe Tabouleh

    Niki Segnit - author of the flavor thesaurus - had a recipe for tabouleh that went something like this: get a bunch of parsley, and start chopping. When you're done with that, get another bunch of parsley. When you feel like your arm is about to fall off, keep on chopping. Tabouleh will always...

    Recipe Tahin Pekmez

    This hardly warrants a recipe, but for completeness I've added one. Ingredients 2-3 tbsp tahini (hulled or unhulled work equally well) 1-3 tbsp grape molasses (traditionally grape molasses is used but any other molasses could be used provided it is sweet, so not pomegranate molasses)...
