This brand was created to show that vegan food need not boring. It can be tasty and nourishing, and good enough to serve to all guests, whatever their dietary preferences. The site also has very simple recipes that you can make, using their products.
Organic Kofu Sausages are also made with fermented kombucha-cultured tofu. Ideal for vegan hot dogs, served in buns with mustard and punchy pickled kraut. The Kofu Steak is ideal with salad and baked sweet potato fries, with ketchup.
Organic Breakfast Scramble makes a delicious morning cooked breakfast, using tofu and a subtle blend of spices and salt. Serve alongside freshly-toasted sourdough bread and smashed peas (a homegrown ethical alternative to avocado). Or use it to make vegan ‘egg-fried rice’.
Organic Kofu Fishfree Fillet is made from kombucha-cultured tofu. Delightful with a simple fresh salad or use to create vegan ‘fish’ and chips!
Dressings, Spreads and Sauces
Hot and Fiery Chilli Sauce is packed with flavour. As is Organic Worcestershire Sauce (free from fish anchovies). Use to make vegan sausage rolls (make your own pastry to avoid palm oil).
Sweet Mustard Dressing uses the finest rapeseed oil, cider vinegar, lemon juice and agave syrup, to drizzle on green salads or or roasted veggies. Or try the thick and creamy non-dairy Caesar dressing.
Red Pepper and Cashew Spread is rich in protein thanks to nuts. Lovely on crackers or use in pasta for sauce.
Toscana-Style spread replicates the flavours of Italy with a medley of organic vegetables. Good on bread or use a a dip for vegetables or breadsticks.
Lentil and Turmeric Spread is a spicy condiment that’s packed with protein. Perfect in sandwiches or on toast, or use as a dip for Middle Eastern meals.
Cashew-Chive Cheese-Free Spread is the best organic sandwichill filler, or use in pasta sauce. Use it to make this vegan feta pasta sauce.
Organic Green Pesto is perfect for pasta. Conventional pesto is not even vegetarian, as by law it contains a cheese with calf rennet.
Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Spreads
The company also makes two chocolate spreads (one in a ‘mylk chocolate’ flavour). Combined with hazelnuts, this is like organic vegan Nutella, lovely drizzled on non-dairy vanilla ice cream.
Try these no-bake chocolate bars (all you need is thick, some oat flour and peanut butter, garnish with pistachio nuts).
