Among the Best European Cookbooks Around — For Beginners and Experts

This classic vegan cookbook from Europe features European plant-based delights that everyone can enjoy. This book stands out among vegan cookbooks as it organizes its dishes by ingredient, rather than by cuisine or style of dish. For example, the cookbook dedicates a full 6 pages to artichokes (whether salads, soups and mains), while potatoes get 12 pages of dedication. It dishes out 6 pages each to bell peppers and onions. The book features over 25 different vegetables and categories — check out the Table of Contents above!

When this book was first published in the original German, the word “vegan,” was barely used (in German or in English). Today The Animal-Friendly Cookbook – On the Way to Nature is a classic among the many plant-based cookbooks, and still stands out as a pioneer in its class. Known across Europe for its delicious renditions of European classics, this is a must-have cookbook for any professional vegan household, plant-based beginner, or simply veg-curious kitchen. From risottos to stuffed bell peppers, fruit-filled desserts and leek soups, a wealth of recipes awaits (just check the index!): everyone can expect to find a few new favorites here.
