1. Fudgy Beet Brownies

Roasted beets do some heavy lifting in these rich and dense brownies. They add texture, moisture and a tempting red velvet hue without any of the earthy beet flavors you might anticipate. These Fudgy Beet Brownies by Ashley Madden are unquestionably unique and the most delicious brownies I’ve ever made. The dark bitter chocolate and sweet coconut sugar balance each other perfectly; and the chickpea flour and walnut base offers such essential nutrients as protein and omega-3 fatty acids without compromising any of the fudgy goodness you expect from a great brownie. These are at their best when cooled, but are also super yummy served a little warm with vegan ice cream. Credit: Reprinted with permission from Plant-Based Delicious by Ashley Madden.

Junsai, harvested from ponds from May to September, are baby water lily buds called “water shield” in English. They Chilled Ume-Tofu Squares In Dashi by Nancy Singleton Hachisu have a natural gelatinous covering so add a cool, slippery element to summer dishes. They might be available at Japanese markets, otherwise just omit or substitute with blanched julienned green beans or cooked edamame. Salted sour “plums” (umeboshi, see page 350) have been prepared in Japan for a millennium, since the Heian period (794–1185) and are purported to have many health- improving qualities, including aiding digestion and combatting summer fatigue during the rainy season. The combination here makes a subtle, but lovely little bite. Extracted from JAPAN: The Vegetarian Cookbook © 2023 by Nancy Singleton Hachisu. Photography © 2023 by Aya Brackett.
