For the first time in Phaidon’s iconic collection of culinary bibles, a book is organised not around the borders of a specific country, but around a universal culinary philosophy.

This monumental compendium brings together over 450 recipes from more than 150 countries — all of which the author has visited in person — designed for vegans, vegetarians or any food lover keen to reduce their meat consumption without compromising on flavour.

With a clear focus on practicality, all the recipes use accessible ingredients that are easy to find in any everyday larder. Following an insightful introduction and a comprehensive guide to stocking the perfect vegan larder, the book features chapters dedicated to starters, salads, soups, main courses, grains and pulses, pasta and noodles, and desserts.

As the icing on the cake, the book features exclusive set menus designed by renowned international chefs, including a standout offering from the Céleri restaurant in Barcelona, led by chef Xavier Pellicer. An essential culinary reference for discovering the infinite diversity and creativity of plant-based cuisine across the globe.
