The Grater Good is written by Flip, owner of iconic Grater Goods, a vegan bistro and delicatessen you’ve no doubt seen in our pages. It highlights food that is truly delicious and about indulgence yet happens to be good for you and the planet. Over 60 European-inspired, adaptable dishes range from Seitan sausages, cassoulets, and bread to super easy spreadable cheeses, pâté, crackers, delectable desserts, and plantbased baking and cooking. These recipes are edible activism, ethical hedonism. They’re mostly unfussy, unpretentious, and shareable. Flip encourages you to gather around tables, break bread, and leave a tonne of crumbs as the French do. koapress.co.nz
