Vegetarian cookbook

The hot summers that were once reserved for the south have also felt at home here in recent years. Sweltering heat, abundant sunshine, and warm nights awaken the desire for crisp salads and sparkling drinks under the parasol, aromatic grilled vegetables, and light snacks for between meals. Anything that cooks in a snap and doesn't require long roasting in the oven or simmering on the stove is welcome – vegetarian and vegan meals that are pleasantly filling without making you sluggish.

Agnes Prus and Yelda Yilmaz think outside the box and draw inspiration from the cuisines of sun-drenched countries, where they know which ingredients and dishes are a treat in midsummer. This cookbook celebrates the seasonal splendor and offers the best recipes for hot summer days.
