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.

    Hearts of Palm

    Have you ever eaten hearts of palm? They are one of my favourite vegetables - I've only ever found them in tins in the UK. Like this: I'm not sure if they can be obtained as a fresh ingredient. I'd be interested to hear how people use them.

    Recipe Moroccan Stew

    First, I'd like to address the green elephant in the kitchen: I know that asparagus isn't something that's typically a part of Moroccan cuisine. But, it worked so well with the other flavors in this stew that I kept it. Once you mix all the ingredients in, it's hard to see the carrots, preserved...

    We used to have a gas cooker (rings and oven) which made this slightly easier, but now only have electric. There are still ways around the issues for charring the aubergines, you just have to get creative. You can use a blow torch, you can use a barbeque, you can use a camping stove, or you...

    Recipe Homemade Tahini

    With experimentation, I have established that if you are after a really smooth tahini, you need to be using white sesame seeds. Unhulled, brown sesame seeds will give you a slightly grainer, more bitter tahini as will black sesame seeds (obviously these will give you a black tahini). So bare...
