Katharina Seiser: Always vegan

Katharina Seiser is not only an esteemed journalist and experienced culinarian but also a courageous woman. At the beginning of last year, she swore off all the beloved delicacies for a few weeks and dared the self-experiment: How does vegan taste? Much more interestingly still: How does vegan taste, if one does without all the spare and exchange products, which confuse and irritate me also again and again very much.

In the end, this three-week phase not only resulted in a detailed newspaper article, it also gave rise to the Animal Friday website. A project that aggregates a collection of vegan recipes from numerous food bloggers once a week. In the meantime, just under 500.

Above all, however, it was during this time that the idea for a new cookbook was born, Katharina’s sixth, by the way. A cookbook that focuses on original vegan dishes. The range extends from domestic Austrian cuisine to Lebanon, Turkey, Italy, France and, of course, Asia. Dishes that have always been traditionally prepared vegan and without processed foods, and not changed due to current fashions and recomposed for the zeitgeist.

Recipe for apricot roester

The approximately 70 recipes are (as already with Austria Vegetarian, Germany Vegetarian and Italy Vegetarian) divided according to the five seasons: spring, summer, autumn, winter and anytime. The thoroughly analytical approach with which Katharina Seiser dedicated herself to the subject is owed to the eleven taste portraits, which provide a brief introduction to sensory analysis and composition.

A fascinating title that also offers the non-vegetarian (and -vegan) a good overview of the wide spectrum of plant-based nutrition. And a lot of good tips, if the vegan friends do spontaneously come to dinner.
