Fire and Ice

Description

Traveling chef Joshua Ploeg of Behead the Prophet, No Lord Shall Live/Mukilteo Fairies/Ravenna's Secret Cafe presents 80 new and delicious, gourmet vegan recipes. Joshua is the epitome of the post-punk ethic manifest into his passion; traveling the country on buses and trains he presents gourmet dinner parties for you and your friends presented out of his backpack, circumventing the corporate route of disseminating his food, recipes, and love. This collection in particular is primarily spicy recipes and beverages (fire and ice, eh?) - blazing tofu, curried pineapple cream cheese, chicken yassa, garlic linguine, pineapple gazpacho with dates, blackeyed pea salsa, curried banana sandwiches, spicy basil turnip and tofu, iced tea with mango syrup, numerous alcoholic drink recipes, and much much more! A fun little foray into the world of punk rock's gourmet chef!

Joshua Ploeg used to sing in punk bands (Select Sex, Mukilteo Fairies, Lords of Lightspeed, Behead the Prophet N.L.S.L., Warm Streams), and now cooks vegan seven course meals and tours in a fashion similar to the band tours of yore, mostly doing dinner parties. He's releassd several vegan cookbooks: This Ain't No Picnic, In Search of the Lost Taste, So Raw It's Downright Filthy, A Typografic Meal to Celebrate the 75th Anniversary of Libelle (Netherlands),Dutch Much, Twelve Knights In My Kingdom and Something Delicious This Way Comes: Spellbinding Vegan Cookery.
