Roast serves 8 The little black dress of the serving platter. Always a classic. Always in style. For Vegansgiving, but really also for any holiday, this studded bundle of fun is the centerpiece of your dreams. It’s a meaty blend of chickpeas and seitan, with a basic-but-in-a-good-way stuffing inside. The flavors are delicious but subtle;...

Makes 8 tacos Here I go again with my fave bean & squash duo, adzuki beans and butternut squash. I just love this combo – the sweet nuttiness of adzuki pairs perfectly with the earthy, warm ambrosia of butternut. They’re pals! And so it follows that I’d bring that combo to Taco Tuesday. Here, the...

Too lazy/busy/efficient to make lasagna? Want bolognese but don’t want to bust out the meat? I got you! This is definitely a weeknight meal, ideal for those times when you want lasagna, but not enough to actually make lasagna. A one pot wonder that is packed with the meaty goodness of lentils. They release their natural juices into the broth, lending it plenty of body. Everything comes together like a deconstructed lasagna with all the ingredients we love: noodles, olives, ricotta, tomato of course, and kale. Don’t forget the fresh basil.

Makes 16 wings

This recipe is from the Wings chapter of Fake Meat, and it’s the OG of vegan wingz. Let’s take a trip to the golden era of veganism, the 1990s. We were lousy with veggie burgers and scrambled tofu. Packages of vegan cheese didn’t even bother to advertise “IT MELTS” because we all knew it didn’t. And no one, but no one, even considered that a wing could be vegan. Except Kate’s Joint in Alphabet City. I could write a whole think-piece on the place, but let’s just focus on the buffalo wings. Fat rectangles of chewy tofu, coated in an her ..read more

If you think Bouef Bourguignon you might automatically think Julia Child. But is Julia Child smiling down on us for this one? Probably not. But damn it’s still delicious. All the wine-kissed smoky satisfaction that you want in Bouef Bouruignon.
It’s from the Beef Stew chapter of Fake Meat and it’s the recipe that finally got me to embrace jackfruit! All it took was a cast iron grill to change everything. Jackfruit is grilled and charred to rep the beef, along with its trusty sidekick, porcini mushrooms. Lentils add meaty body and smoke ..read more

My new cookbook is available for preorder! It’s out January 10th. Read all about it here.
Fake Meat uses every vegan ingredient available to recreate classic meaty dishes at home. This was truly a labor of love. I created the recipes during lockdown, while everyone else was making sourdough. It was an interesting challenge, since ingredients weren’t always easy to come by, so I had the opportunity to get really creative. There’s plenty of tofu and seitan, but also fun ways to use cauliflower, mushrooms and artichokes to create flaky, juicy, meatiness. And fishiness. And chicky-ness. I even fo ..read more

Baking season is upon us! And before we dive into pumpkin spice, let’s make a sweet stop at chili season.
Cayenne and chocolate is a tale as old as time. Or at least as old as Mayan civilization. These cupcakes will make you the talk of the chili festival. A little cayenne in the batter and a simple chocolate glaze are refined and elegant. Top with some spicy pecans, though, to really get everyone in the mood.
These are just a little spicy so as not to scare off anyone who absolutely can’t handle heat, but if you’re looking to really do some damage, just double the cayenne in both ..read more

First let’s get this pronounced correctly because you’re saying it wrong: “CA-PRAY-ZAY.” Great. Moving on, I must tell you that the tomatoes are the most important element. So if it’s just not the season and you can’t find big, juicy, just-off-the vine ‘matos, then don’t bother. Now that those things are cleared up, let’s get CA-RAY-ZAY. Fresh basil, sweet balsamic reduction, olive oil and flaky sea salt make for the simplest but most sublime summer salad. Traditionally, mozzarella is the cheese of choice, but ricotta is not unheard of and almond ricotta is a nice introduction ..read more

Fried rice is a meal you can have every night of the week and never tire of. I’ve proven this point time and time again; it was my go to when ordering takeout for most of my life in Brooklyn. But the home cook has to get it right: keep the heat high enough to sear each ingredient. A wok is the ideal vessel, but a large cast iron is fine, too. There’s something so seductive about smoky meatiness with tropical juiciness and this fried rice satisfies with the combo of porq and mango. The flavor is zhuzhed up with ginger, lime and star anise for the most winningest formula. Getting the f ..read more

makes 1 dozen balls
“You eat with your eyes first.” Well, your eyes are about to feast. Yes, these mozzarella balls are creamy, tangy, and rich. But they are also absolutely beautiful, floating in brine, looking straight out of an Italian deli. “But how can I, who has never achieved anything in my life, make these?” you might wonder. And the answer isn’t years of study in a cheese cave. It’s an ice cream scoop, a high-speed blender, and some ice water. This method was perfected by Miyoko Schinner, of Miyoko’s cheese fame.
