Gazpacho

Gazpacho

This gazpacho is simple to make, as with any raw dish – it really is what you put in, so in particular choose the olive oil, vinegar, and tomato juice carefully. Excellent with olive bread, a white wine, and some manchego cheese.

Zingy Lemon Glitters

Zingy Lemon Glitters

Based on Isa Chandra Moskovitz’s “Citrus Glitters” I’ve added candied ginger and narrowed it down to just lemon zest. This is basically a vegan take on old fashioned sugar cookies, and could easily be adapted to any flavour you like.

Miso Nuts

Miso Nuts

A craving and some detective work lead to this recipe. Sweet, salty, bright with citrus and ginger, but with depth from miso and sesame oil. A moreish snack that feels healthy enough.

Chocolate Chia Pudding

Chia seeds are a great shortcut to pudding deserts, yogurt of any type with live cultures gives you a bonus point for health factor, but in the end, this is just tasty.

Roasting carrots before making the classic dip from Veganomicon. Two kinds of garlic – sweetly roasted, and spicy raw, light, good as a dip for veggies, a spread on crackers or sandwiches.
