Kimchi (김치) is a popular Korean fermented dish that a lot have grown to love. I, personally, love eating kimchi as a side with (basically) anything. It is one of my favorite staples in the kitchen because possibilities of using this side dish for recipes are absolutely endless. Stews, fried rice, pancakes, stir…

Vegan Kare-Kare (Filipino Peanut Stew)
One of the earlier recipes that I made for The Earth Kitchen was about two years ago and my co-creators and I , at that time, were craving the ultimate Filipino comfort food goodness – it’s kare-kare or pronounced as kar-eh kar-eh. It is a Filipino peanut stew traditionally served with oxtail and,…
Buckwheat Chocolate Chip Brownie Cookies (Vegan)
If I am being completely honest, and me being the most plant-based person I can be at this moment in my life, the sound of buckwheat is interestingly-healthy-but-also-unappealing. I’ve always been a little hesitant working with whole grain flours because it takes a lot of patience; texture is very different and it had…
Crispy Asian Marinated Tofu (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I’ve had my fair shares of flavoring tofu for my home cooked meals. I think the challenge, for me, is how to properly marinate (or season) tofu in order for it to come to life in flavor. I love tofu, it is tasty, and I think it’s one of the best staples to…

Tofu Chocolate Mousse Pie (Egg & Dairy Free)
I know what you are thinking. You don’t need to say it. TOFU. I know. I know. I know. HEAR THIS LADY OUT. I’ve tested this recipe three times and have given out samples for my beloved non-vegan family and friends to try without any judgement and it all passed with flying colors….
Vegan Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Pasta
It is comfort food season! Though, everyday, is an eat-your-feelings like of day. One of my favorite dishes to eat is PASTA! Now, if you are not a fan of pasta – if I am being completely honest – we probably cannot be friends (just kidding, we can still be friends, but I…
Brunch Vegetable Fritters
If you ask me what my favorite meal of the day is, I’m going to have to go with brunch. I love the fact that I get to eat hearty breakfast meals during an early lunch hour – the best things in life are life hacks and, my friend, brunch is a life…
