Ep143. Why vegan cooking is anything but dull, with School Night Vegan

Today's action-packed episode is all about the food! In part 1, we take you on a little trip to London to sample a 'tree-course meal' with Treedom and Plates London before stopping by at 123V – a new vegan restaurant from Michelin-star chef Alexis Gauthier.  We try the sushi, made from vegan salmon and crab, a Korean kimchi burger and chickpea fries.We also sample some incredibly creamy vegan cheese from Julienne Bruno that you can buy online or find at Harrods. Stay tuned for part 2 when Holly chats to the amazingly talented Richard Makin, otherwise known as School Night Vegan. He explains how he went from running an ice cream truck to being a successful vegan food blogger with over 200,000 followers and a new book – Anything You Can Cook, I Can Cook Vegan. We cover food nostalgia, the myth that veganism is limiting and how to be a mad scientist in the kitchen and shift the goalposts to produce creative and incredibly delicious vegan recipes. And yes, we even talk about how to make a vegan fried egg. Share your journey with us! • Become a patron at patreon.com/simplyvegan and access video interviews, live chats with Holly and Molly and free downloads• Visit veganfoodandliving.com and try our delicious recipes• Tag us in your social posts, @veganfoodandliving• Share this episode with a friend• Try an issue of Vegan Food and Living magazine for just 99pMusic by Purple Planet Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
