Learning to make fish & chips out of aubergine? Yes please! Whipping up a brisket sandwich out of mushrooms? Sign me up! This book even has a snappy title, which is somehow uplifting and passive aggressive at the same time. Hi, I’m Richard. I strongly suspect we already have one big thing in common: an interest in vegan food. Oh boy, we’re going to get along! I also wrote this book because I am an unapologetic nerd. This book is also a collection of my lab-notes. What kind of a vegan-mad scientist would I be if I kept all these rad ideas to myself? Sharing is caring, bestie!

‘fake meat’ recipes (but not that fake)
Fake Meat is a book of recipes designed to satisfy the tastes of die-hard carnivores. But this is not about fake plastic-wrapped fake meats. Because the author is one of the world’s best-selling vegan cookbook authors, who is a household name in the US, and has used profits from her books to open vegan restaurants.
Isa is also a very funny (Jewish) writer, so you’ll enjoy reading her books, as much as cooking from them. Recipes include smoked beet Cuban sandwiches & buttermylk fried ‘chick’n.
