This is our vegan take on a classic Italian chicken piccata recipe. We’re using plant chicken breasts cooked in a rich buttery sauce made with lemon and capers.

It would be not unreasonable to assume that wine is vegan. Grapes are fruit and the fermentation process of turning their sugars into alcohol requires no animal products, so why can’t those following a plant-based diet enjoy a carefree glass of Merlot with dinner? Well unfortunately in the pursuit of the perfect glass of vino, wine makers the world over have strayed from more natural processes. The good news for all of you rose-drinking, white wine-swilling, vino enthusiasts is that there is a multitude of “alternative fining agents, and these are used increasingly by winemakers all over the world. Bentonite (a type of clay) is one of the most popular.”
