Veganistan is a brand new volume from Sally Butcher following the
silk trail started by Veggiestan and Persepolis. After the success
of bestseller Veggiestan, Sally Butcher continues her gastronomic
journey along the Silk Road with Veganistan. In response to many
requests in her Peckham restaurant, Persepolis, Sally has created a
vegan cookbook celebrating plants and wholefoods with the luscious
flavours of the Middle East. A masterclass in inventive vegan
cooking, the chapters range from hot and cold mezze, fermentation
and pickling, and bread and grains to delicious desserts, divine
drinks, and vegan meat, dairy and egg substitutes. Stand-out
recipes include beetroot and sour cherry gazpacho, mushroom and
chestnut borek, seitan kebabs, Persepolitan sauerkraut, and quince
and cardamom trifle. Written in Sally's witty and reassuring voice,
Veganistan will bring something new to your kitchen and equip you
with the skills to make stunning vegan food for any occasion.
Contents: Simple Meze Salads and Cold Starters Soups, Snacks and
Hot Starters Bread, Rice and Grains From the Stewing Pot From the
Oven From the Frying Pan and Into the Fire Salted, Smoked,

Veggiestan, ‘the land of vegetables’ refers to the Middle
Eastern region that merits such a name; a region that is bubbling,
simmering and bursting with vegetarian traditions and recipes –
much like this book. Sally Butcher runs the acclaimed Persian food
store and restaurant Persepolis in Peckham, London. Her first book,
Persia in Peckham, was published to critical acclaim and
shortlisted for the 2008 Andrew Simon Award. It was selected by the
Sunday Times as their cookery book of the year. Since then Sally
has gone on to write Veggiestan, Snackistan, Salmagundi and
Persepolis. Perhaps best known for Veggiestan, one of the first
books to delve into cooking vegetarian Middle Eastern food, a topic
that has only grown in popularity since 2011, much of it down to
the visibility Ottolenghi has given the subject in recent years.

Join Sally Butcher, owner and chef of iconic Peckham-based cafe and grocery shop, Persepolis, as she shares her take on Middle Eastern street fare, snacks and meze. Increasingly, formal dining is being nudged aside in favour of meze-style spreads, and street food has come of age. Meze picks out the Middle East's most exciting street food and snacks including a range of kebabs, nuts, nibbles and sweet halwah, to bring together for family and friends. From Aubergine-wrapped Chicken, and Rabbit and Fig Kebabs, to Lebanese Street Pizza Bread and Sudanese Mashed Broad Beans. With drinks to serve alongside such as Iced Turkish Delight Coffee or Kashmiri Tamarind Cooler, without forgetting puddings for a sweet finish, you too can create the home shawarma experience and the definitive Middle Eastern meze. Packed with recipes from across the region and Sally's trademark wit and informed anecdotes, this is a burst of intoxicating flavours for all Middle Eastern food enthusiasts.
The part-time vegetarian who was identified in Sally’s first
book, Veggiestan, has become a thing. Great swathes of the
population are now eschewing meat for the best part of the week in
favour of healthier, vegetable–based alternatives. The appetite
for new ways to brighten your broccoli, add sparkle to your spinach
and titillate your tomatillos has never been greater. Since opening
her vegetarian café within her shop Persepolis, Sally has seen an
explosion of interest in her Middle Eastern-influenced vegetarian
dishes. Inspired by the food Sally serves up daily to her hungry
customers, this sequel to Veggiestan, ventures a little further
from the Middle Eastern shores, deserts and mountain ranges to
other continents and beyond... The book still mostly draws on
Sally’s experience in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine,
but once again she looks to all parts of the globe for vegetarian
recipes (and stories). Persepolis brings you the most outstanding
(and fun) ways of feeding without meat or fish, stopping along the
way for a chat with the residents and a bit of sightseeing. 150 new
recipes, including more vegan recipes/alternatives, offer a
fantastic variety of ideas for the vegetarian cook.
Persepolis is a foodie's paradise. Sally Butcher and her husband
Jamshid have created a food store from heaven, gathering all that's
best from Iran and the Middle East. Chef and food writer Tom
Norrington Davies remarks that 'Persepolis is my corner shop. But
even if it wasn't, I'd happily cross town and country to get there.
Otherwise, I'd miss the heady scent of their herbs and spices every
time I opened my kitchen cupboards. Persepolis is an emporium in
the true sense of the word. It feels exotic and local all at once,
and this is, in no small part, thanks to Sally Butcher. She is
always happy to give advice on everything from chick peas to
hookahs with the same warm mix of humour, expertise and enthusiasm.
And if the samovar is on you get all the above with a cuppa.
Persepolis is the sort of place no neighbourhood should be
without.' This book distils all that is remarkable about this shop
and the style of cooking that it supports. Sally herself is
English, but she has had to learn the ways of her customers and her
husband's family. She is a matchless interpreter of Persian food
and cookery, as well as of modern Iran and the tremendous changes
that have been going on in that society since the revolution. This
book should be seen as a way for British readers to enter into the
Persian experience; to understand how the cuisine has developed;
and to appreciate how the cookery (and the society) is reacting to
the modern world. The recipes are full and informative, covering
every aspect of Persian cookery from soups and stews to drinks and
sweetmeats. This will be a book to remember; and a book that will
be applauded and endorsed by some of the most respected of our
modern food writers and chefs.
Salmagundi is a 17th-century English word denoting a salad dish
comprising, well, everything. The nearest modern equivalent is
Fiambre, a Guatemalan salad containing in excess of twenty
ingredients. This comprehensive new book from acclaimed author
Sally Butcher looks at salad bowls across the world in 150 recipes.
The recipes feature a number of archaic, traditional and staple
dishes – and a whole lot of funky new stuff as well. Divided into
fourteen chapters (Herbs and Leaves; Vegetables; Beans; Roots;
Grains and Pasta, Rice, Cheese, Fish, Meat, Dips, Fruity Salads,
Salads for Pudding, The Dressing Room, The Prop Cupboard), no stone
is left unturned in pursuit of the ultimate salad recipe. Recipes
are flagged where relevant with tags such as 'super-healthy' or
'skinny-minny' or 'main course' to make it more user-friendly.
Seasoned with Sally's trademark mixture of folklore and anecdotes,
and with photography from renowned food photographer Yuki Sugiura,
this is an essential update for the foodie bookshelf.
