I have that Cranks cookbook! It was one of my first, too. And I made that vegan cheeze! And Red Dragon is one of our favourites, in Sarah Brown’s book, too! We have so much in common!
Congratulations on the 20 year anniversary! Here’s to the next 20! And the 20 after that!

Dare you to try it out!

I’m thinking even garlic wont be able to make marg and soya flour tasty.

thank you

looking through the cranks book and see it has 3 cheese recipes using soya flour and marg!! sava sounds like the one I made but this one has garlic in too, which might be a slight improvement…

oh yes, the soya flour – I sought it out specially for the recipe! I like Sarah Brown – red dragon pie is from her I think

Congratulations on 20 years.

It was a Sarah Brown cookbook I got as my first vegetarian cookbook and i remember looking through it and wondering what most of the ingredients were! I still go back to the book and marvel at how many more things i eat now. (Before I went veggie, then vegan, i wouldn’t eat any vegetables except carrots and peas!).

I also remember that vegan cookbook that made ‘cheese’ out of marg, soya flour and marmite! eurgh! There were lots of unpleasant recipes in the book and it almost put me off being vegan. Plus it was recommended by the Vegan Society at the time so i thought it would be good.Some things definately change for the better and vegan cookbooks have been one of them.
