Vegan cooking reaches to all areas of the kitchen, via different cuisines and cooking methods, as these four books show. Find plant-based recipes from British classics, to Hong Kong street foods, rethinking iconic dishes, and going plant-based with your slow cooker. Whether you are a confirmed vegan, or just getting started, there is endless variety to explore.
The right marinade, spice rub, or barbecue sauce can transform your grilled dishes, turning the ordinary into the extraordinarily good. Spice up your cooking with a classic Jerk Marinade for spare ribs, make your own Honey Bourbon BBQ Sauce, or try Korean-style Barbecued Beef Shortribs livened up with a soy, sesame, and ginger marinade.

‘This cookbook has been written to share the culinary journey of the Zoroastrians as they migrated from the Persian Empire to the shores of India. It summarises how Parsi food has been influenced by Persian cuisine but is distinctively different in its preparation. As the title suggests, it is just the route to an end—a beautiful way of being intertwined with different cultures while maintaining a clear identity of its own.’ Niloufer Mavalvala
Welcome back! We're now at one of the most anticipated parts of food photography, the edit. It’s where so many people think the magic happens. You’ll often hear the phrase “Oh, you can just fix that in the edit.” But I’m here to tell you: editing shouldn't be a crutch. It's not where the real magic happens. That starts in-camera. Editing is simply where we add the finishing touches. The sprinkle of sea salt. The drizzle of olive oil. A way to elevate the image, not disguise mistakes.
