Salted plum soda, plus an espresso twist - Messy Vegan Cook
One of my favourited iced drinks, especially if I've been out and about, a bit sweaty, in need of a pick-me-up, is this salted plum soda. Or, if it's the morning after one of those rare warm nights, the salted plum americano variation hits the spot.
Bean Curd Recipe Roundup: Tofu Recipes - Messy Vegan Cook
As much as I wish (don't we all!) I had enough time to work in the kitchen and produce a new recipe each day to share, the whole work and earn money thing sort of gets in the way. But there are so many great recipes I come across on a daily basis, some of...Read More

So here's the deal: I want a good way to keep all these delicious MoFo recipes sorted and organised in a method that doesn't involve ridiculous stacks of unruly papers which I'll never find again until my partner points out to me that he actually dealt with my crap and filed them away somewhere reasonable....Read More

There's something about slow cooked bell peppers that makes a dish special, and as soon as these hit my mouthhole here my initial doubt faded. Zesty and smooth, this is a pasta dish for capsicum fans. Doused with some...Read More
On Human Anatomy and Cookie Making - Messy Vegan Cook
Every Christmas as a child and into adulthood my mother and I had an annual anise cookie baking marathon. She'd roll the dough and make the cut-outs. I'd decorate with the plethora of sprinkles and dyed sugar crystals that sat in the back of the cupboard for the rest of the year. Several years ago,...Read More
The other side of people, or my teary-eyed Chatuchak visit - Messy Vegan Cook
In the magical land of Thailand, where every little girl has a pony and rainbows are a form of currency, a vegetarian festival exists for nine days of every year. Contrary to what tourist websites and boards will tell you, this isn't just local to Phuket, but is celebrated across the country. Street vendors swap...Read More
