Hi! I’m Miyoko, a culinary activist, cookbook author, entrepreneur, and animal sanctuary founder out to change the world with plants and vegan community. On my channel, you find me whipping up my own recipes and having conversations with friends and fellow activists.

I hope to inspire you to get creative in the kitchen, share a meal with friends and neighbors, and live the vegan good life.

My newest cookbook, The Vegan Creamery, is finally available!
Truly, I think I’ve hit on some new techniques in my book I’ve never seen anywhere (yes—including watermelon seeds!). I could start another company based on this …or I could share it with the world, hoping that thousands of people will be inspired by my ideas and reclaim their kitchens, or even start small businesses based on them. These recipes are my gift to you, because anyone can be a cheesemaker.

Big shout out to everyone that helped me launch this book: @sallyekus @emilycaneer @geniusgenesis @penguinrandomhouse @jvnlainc

PRE-ORDER AVAILABLE NOW. My latest book, covering everything from milk to butter to yogurt to cheese to ice cream and more, exlporing a range of new ingredients and techniques, launches September 16, and you can pre-order starting now!

A limited number of signed copies are available from Omnivore Books, omnivorebooks.myshopify.com/products/pre-order-the…

or you can pre-order from any major bookseller (I recommend Bookshop.org) www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/752115/the-vegan-….

This book goes where no plant-dairy book has gone before with new methods, techniques, and a range of ingredients that bring nutrition and flavor to your kitchen. It builds on Artisan Vegan Cheese, my old book that is often credited for kickstarting the vegan cheese revolution, but goes so much further. Creamy ice creams that aren’t coconut based with no added oils, 3 ingredient butters, milks that are fortified to deliver nutrition as well as flavor and functionality, and of course, a new range of cheeses that aren’t just based on cashews — it’s all here! Pre-order your copy today!

There won’t be a new episode tomorrow since we’re taking this week off. However, we’ll have a new video up next Sunday, 2/2.

In the meantime, what does self-care look like for you these days? Here’s a previous episode featuring my favorite comfort meal to give you an idea of what it looks like for me.

See you next week!

Nothing's wrong with good ol' mashed potatoes but this Thanksgiving, elevate your offerings and give my recipe for decadent Vegan Potatoes Au Gratin or Pommes Anna a try.

See for yourself how simple these potato dishes are to make!

With the holidays approaching, I want to share an older video of one of my most popular dishes, the UnTurkey. A perfect centerpiece to any of your holiday gatherings.

The recipe looks daunting but is really not. If you make it, make a large batch of the light yeast flavoring for year-round use as a vegan broth substitute or seasoning for other dishes. It’s highly versatile — I always have it around, not just for holidays.

Give my Pumpkin Bread Pudding a try this Halloween or Thanksgiving. It's a comforting and warm alternative to pumpkin pie that happens to be oil-free!
