Joshua Ploeg – författare

The first cookbook to feature creative and delicious vegan recipes that match the quality and presentation of a five-star restaurant whilst never straying from self-parody and humour about punk rock culture and history. While exploring and improving the favourite foods of historic punk rockers through exclusive interviews, Picnic treats home chefs to the delectibles they could - and perhaps should - have been eating instead. Also included are 80 new recipes featuring Joshua Ploeg's magical food and flavour combinations that are out of this world!

Poor Morrissey. He's just so... so... hungry. And meat is murder, so that narrows his options by a lot. Until now, at least! With the arrival of the Defensive Eating with Morrissey cookbook, our dear Moz no longer needs to suffer such terrible hunger, such ruthless indecision or the emotional impact of a major blood sugar crash at the worst possible moment. These 100+ vegan recipes make enough unbelievably delicious, poetic food for him to eat his fill and have plenty left over for later. Sweetness, he's even saved enough for you.

Joshua Ploeg is the travelling chef. A vegan alchemist whose recipes are filled with winged horses and white doves - metaphorically of course. These are vegan recipes. Sometimes strange, experimental, a little crazy; flavours explode in each unique dish which is a journey in its own right. Ploeg passionately shows that successfully complex flavour combinations can extend far beyond snail porridge - no meat is needed here. Recipes include Straw Mushroom and Black Sesame Rolls with Spicy Mustard Sauce and Sweet Black Vinegar Soy Sauce; Lemongrass Basil Ice Cream and a Miso Mary.
