Recipe: Tropical Chocolate and Amaranth Cake
This recipe is the unnatural spawn of three different recipes – one in Veganomicon, for a low-fat vegan chocolate cake, one in 366 Delicious Ways To Cook Rice, Beans and Grains (which, incidentally, is an incredibly useful cookbook if you…
Recipe: Roast Garlic and White Bean Chilli
Photographic evidence of Cross-Dressing Ken’s latest cake adventures will be up later this evening, but I just need to get this recipe down before I forget what I did! This is another vegan chilli recipe, but this time it’s gluten…

Back before I started obsessing over sourdough, I reviewed Apples for Jam by Tessa Kiros. I’ve been wondering which recipe to choose from her book to share with you as an example of her work. Should I pick the gorgeous…
