Pasta With Mushrooms and Cashew Cream
Recipe developer DeVonn Francis first came across nutritional yeast at a restaurant job, when chef Gerardo Gonzalez used the nutty yellow flakes to make homemade vegan Dorito dust. It’s an inexpensive, shelf-stable ingredient that lends a distinct cheesiness when you don’t want or have the real thing. To create the Continue Reading

In this brothy beans recipe, caramelizing fennel, shallots, and lemon builds a base layer that is sweet, tangy, and bright.
