I think most of us are familiar with cultured cashew cheese. Sometimes I make my own using homemade rejuvelac. But the whole process of making basic vegan cream cheese takes up to a week. What if I want to spread something on my bagel right now? This time I didn’t want to rely on cashews…

Vegan Gibanica (Serbian Cheese Pie)
Before starting the experiment with this vegan Gibanica, I couldn’t even imagine that it will turn out so good! I tried to transform tofu into cheese many times before, but it was never so impressive. It takes only few simple ingredients and a little bit of classic vegan cheese seasoning to make this gorgeous pie. Layers…
Vegan Bosnian Burek with Ground Seitan
I might be banned in Balkan countries after sharing this vegan Burek recipe, but for the sake of this blog’s name I just have to do it. I tried different types of seitan and rolling techniques, and what I did here is perfect. The filling came out juicy and meaty with lots of different flavors….
Vegan Chickpea Soufflé
Today I’m trying to make something unachievable. More precisely, vegan chickpea soufflé. After big success with my Fluffy Vegan Omelette, this task seems easier than usually. I tried to make chickpea flour omelette with whipped aquafaba before, but I just couldn’t make it right. But what if I cook it in the oven?
Vegan Lvivsky Syrnyk (Ukrainian Cheesecake)
Lvivsky Syrnyk is Ukrainian type of cheesecake made of cottage cheese, eggs, sugar and vanilla. As I replaced cottage cheese with firm tofu many times before, I though it should work great in this recipe too. Usually Lvivsky Syrnyk has denser and a bit grainy consistency than a normal one, yet my vegan version of…

Seitan Roast with Pink Peppercorn Glaze
Usually when I make seitan I aim to achieve firm and chewy texture, as opposite to all foods that I usually consume. But this time I wanted to create something different. Seitan roast that I’m sharing with you here is soft, but not spongy or mushy. It has incredible flavor and is absolutely irresistible! With…
Vegan Chicken Pineapple Salad
As I mentioned before Soviet New Year’s feast can’t happen without a variety of mayo salads on a table. That’s why I feel obligated to post veganized recipes of it even though I rarely eat such food myself. But this vegan chicken pineapple salad is a mix of Soviet and Western culture and I think…
Vegan Soviet No-Crab Salad
This is the time of the year when mayo is the top selling product in post-Soviet grocery stores. And today I’m gonna make vegan no-crab salad. With lots of mayo of course. Funny, but original recipe doesn’t even call for real crab meat. Main ingredient of this gourmet Soviet dish is highly processed fish by-product…
Vegan Stuffed No-Turkey Roll
Christmas is almost here and if you’re in a mood of making a special dinner try my vegan stuffed no-turkey roll. Yes, it requires quite a bit of time and effort but it’s so much worth it! I went heavy on mushrooms in this recipe. They are literally everywhere: in stuffing, in seitan base and…
