“The MICHELIN Guide Seoul │ Busan 2025 One MICHELIN-Star Vegan Restaurant Chef Presents: 100% Plant-Based Cuisine for Everyday Life”
The Vegan Pantry is the first recipe book by Chef Sung Siwoo of LÉGUME, a vegan restaurant that offers an exceptional gastronomic experience using only natural plant-based ingredients. Drawing from his culinary philosophy, practical expertise, and reflections as a vegan cuisine chef, the author seamlessly integrates these elements into every recipe. This book presents a carefully curated selection of popular, familiar dishes that are accessible at home, even to non-professionals, and enjoyable for everyone—not just vegetarians. It features a diverse array of plant-based dishes, from basic recipes to their creative applications, including salads, soups, pastas, main dishes, and desserts. A vegetable stock that concentrates the natural essence of vegetables, a nutrient-rich, flavor-packed vegetable curry made from strained vegetable solids, and a fascinating main dish that incorporates the curry—ingredients once nearly discarded are now transformed into something substantial. As you follow each recipe step by step, the book will spark endless inspiration, guiding you to expand your own plant-based culinary world. And so, plant-based cuisine will no longer be just a diet for special occasions; it will become a part of the joy in your everyday life.
