Hi, I'm Julius Fiedler, but who's Hermann?

In Germany, Hermann is not only an elegant name, but a ‘Freundschaftskuchen’ (friendship cake). In essence, it is a sweet, yeasted starter dough, which continues to grow over time to a point where you give the natural surplus to your friends to use in a cake. It is basically an edible chain letter. But more importantly, it is the philosophy to pass something on, a cake but also a skill, that might last forever.

During the COVID pandemic, I hosted online sourdough baking classes under the name Baking Hermann. Afterwards, I assisted Jamie Oliver as a food stylist for over a year and now I film and share my own food content. I currently focus on natural plant-based food that is inspired by vegan cultures. 🌾

Potaje de Garbanzos - a traditional Lent dish from Spain. Lent may well be over now, but it’s these kinds of dishes that inspire me year-round.

Türkiye’s national dish is VEGAN?! I visited Istanbul and tasted Kuru Fasulye, a slow-cooked bean stew. At the same place, they also served an incredible dessert, Kabak Tatlısı. Check out my latest short to see how both are made 👏

This is a traditional street food sandwich from Livorno, Tuscany. A crispy chickpea pancake and grilled marinated aubergines packed between slices of focaccia. Unreal! 🇮🇹

Armenian stuffed flatbreads 🔥 these are known to be made with up to 20 different greens, but it’s a fun way to use whatever you have available.

Mujaddara 😍 a Levantine staple made with lentils, rice, spices and plenty of caramelized onions. It’s one the recipes in my book Naturally Vegan, where I’m pairing it with a vibrant farmer’s salad.
