This 3-ingredient Kinako Latte is a great alternative to hot chocolate as it’s rich and comforting without being too sweet, and a fab caffeine-free option if you’re tired of herbal tea. Kinako, which means “yellow flour” in Japanese, is roasted soybean flour (so it’s gluten-free), and is widely used in Japanese cuisine. Kinako is traditionally used in…

Gluten-Free Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Cake
I can’t get over how delicious this Gluten-Free Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Cake is – it tastes reminiscent of Nutella, it’s rich and indulgent, and perfectly soft and fudgy.

Miso Aubergine Dip (Vegan + GF)
This Miso Aubergine Dip is insanely moreish, surprisingly satisfying and really healthy! The flavour of this dip was inspired by one of my favourite Japanese dishes called nasu dengaku (grilled aubergine topped with a salty-sweet miso sauce). It’s super yummy but the traditional method for making it involves whisking egg yolks over a bain-marie, which is neither vegan-friendly…
