Recipes like Dirty Cauliflower, Barbecued Carrots with Slow-Cooked White Beans, Millet Roux Mushroom Gumbo, and Citrus & Garlic-Herb-Braised Fennel are enticing enough without meat substitutes, instead relying on fresh ingredients, vibrant spices, and clever techniques to build flavor and texture.

We are all responsible for our health and I will guide you through these recipes step by step to ease the stress. I’m so excited to be sharing my culinary journey with you, enjoy.
The Gentle Cookbook
by Amandine Kmieckowiak
About
The gentle cook book is a recipe book, where the recipes are gentle, to everyone; the animals, the human body, and the planet. Being a chef has allowed me to innovate and create my own recipes. After many requests, I have decided to share some of the secrets of my creations. I want to show through this book that food can be delicious and nutritious at the same time. It doesn’t have to be complicated to cook. Of course it can be, but it is by being gentle to ourselves that we manage everything, even enjoying cooking.
