Yet eight years ago, he became a dad, got sober, and quietly began to train his gift for creating exhilarating food on meat-free, dairy-free dishes. Soon, much of the Mission menu was vegan--not that anyone noticed. They were too busy eating it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat's the kind of food you'll find in \u003cem\u003eMission Vegan\u003c\/em\u003e: fun, original, wildly flavorful dishes that'll thrill devotees of Danny's lamb ma po tofu, lifelong vegans, and everyone in between. His approach reflects the same \"uniquely American\" perspective--a blend of his particular upbringing and his boundless curiosity and enthusiasm--that has made him one of the country's most influential chefs. It all adds up to a book where pasta pomodoro shares a chapter with chewy Korean buckwheat noodles topped with neon-pink dragonfruit ice; where one fried rice is inspired by veggie sushi hand rolls and another is a mash-up of his favorite Thai takeout and Jose Andres' Spanish tortilla; and where kimchi is made kaleidoscopically with habanero, with pineapple, and with the seasoning packets from instant ramen. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd while these are all dishes that have appeared, or could appear, on Mission's menu, the recipes are all geared for the home cook, delivering restaurant-quality impact without restaurant-level effort. Keeping the emphasis on the fun of cooking and experimenting in the kitchen, \u003cem\u003eMission Vegan \u003c\/em\u003erepresents a journey-in-progress, a chef's mission to find inspiration, joy, and flavor in food, no matter where life takes you. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ecco Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50650483097874,"sku":"9780063012981","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_36d26574-77a8-44b8-b286-99f95237424c.jpg?v=1733290124","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/mission-vegan-wildly-delicious-food-for-everyone-9780063012981","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
