Reviews"Award-winning food writer Georgina Hayden has filled this beautiful cookbook with 120 vegan recipes that are peppered with stories and tips and tricks. We plan to take a page from Hayden's own cooking approach, first stocking the fridge with fresh staples such as salad leaves, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and a bevy of fresh herbs like mint, coriander, parsley and dill. Then, making a few dishes on Sunday to have a satisfying array of mix-and-match components to nourish ourselves for the week ahead." - Food Network, 10 Best Vegan Cookbooks of 2022 "Exceptional . . . Conceived to adhere to nistisima , the Greek Orthodox church's fasting tradition, the dishes abstain from using any animal products, but feel far from restrictive. . . . The result is a stellar collection that will satisfy religious observers and agnostics alike." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Part lesson in religion and history, [ Nistisima ]combines plant-based eats, new twists on Mediterranean foods, and evocative photography. Za'atar buns, makdous (eggplants with walnuts and chili), and charred watermelon and pistachio salad will have kitchen enthusiasts readying their backyards for summer evening spreads, while heartier fare such as legume-based stews (think black-eyed peas, favas, and lentils) will warm bellies on cooler nights." -- Booklist "Mouthwatering recipes and beautiful storytelling - I want a seat at Georgie's table." -- Jamie Oliver "This book is the sunny window that everyone needs: open it to flood your kitchen with Mediterranean sun, delicious food and great stories. Georgina takes these ancient traditions and fits them to our modern kitchens with impeccable style and flare; surely lent has never tasted so good." -- Itamar Srulovic, Honey & Co "There's so much to love and to learn in Georgina's glorious Nistisima . It's really worth fasting to eat like this." -- Claudia Roden, "Award-winning food writer Georgina Hayden has filled this beautiful cookbook with 120 vegan recipes that are peppered with stories and tips and tricks.
