When families come together for holidays and celebrations throughout the year, the need to accommodate vegans often arises. This book presents special-occasion favorites from acclaimed vegan restaurants Candle Cafe and Candle 79 tailored for the home table, including mains, sides, and wine and cocktail pairings. Rather than ho-hum meat-free alternatives, this book"s menus and recipes are a festive indulgence. With dishes like Sweet Potato Latkes with Almond Creme Fraiche for Passover and Pumpkin Seed Crusted Tempeh with Oven Roasted Ginger-Maple Sweet Potato & Orange-Cranberry Relish for Thanksgiving, home cooks will be able to wow vegans and omnivores alike.
