Vegan Vegan - Zineb Hattab & Joan Roca

Award-winning chef Zineb Hattab presents a master class in bold, flavorful, plant-based cooking

Chef Zineb 'Zizi' Hattab has earned global acclaim for her Michelin-starred vegan restaurant, KLE, in Zurich. In her debut cookbook, she turns her attention to home cooking, revealing how to create deeply satisfying plant-based meals using technique and imagination.

Vegan Vegan! offers a practical framework for building flavor with intention. With Hattab’s guidance, home cooks will learn how to incorporate umami, layer acidity, manipulate texture, draw aroma from spices and herbs, and understand the cues that guide seasoned chefs.

The book’s eclectic recipes put these skills to good use, offering ample options for everyday meals and special occasions. More than 100 dishes include savory Ramp Gnocchi; Sobrasada with Pine Nuts; billowy Glazed Sweet Potato Milk Buns; decadent Almond Baklava; comforting Plum Tart with Cottage Cheese and Cardamom Syrup; and a luscious Chocolate Coffee Loaf Cake. Dietary symbols throughout the book – gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, 5 ingredients or fewer, and 30 minutes or less – allow easy navigation according to dietary needs and preferences.

Vegan Vegan! also includes recipes for 30 pantry staples, such as plant-based mayos, sauces, condiments, spice blends, and aromatic foundations. These kitchen essentials are designed to create depth, balance, and structure without relying on animal products.

With a foreword by acclaimed chef Joan Roca, this is a must-have for vegans, vegetarians, and anyone interested in sustainable, plant-based eating, Vegan Vegan! is an invitation to cook boldly, joyfully, and often.
