I am VERY excited to be sharing a new vegan cookbook with y’all! Last year, I had the pleasure of doing the food photography for NYC Vegan, by the Vegan Mos AKA Michael Suchman and Ethan Ciment. And now, as of May 9th, it is out in the world!! I shot around 45 recipes from the book, so I feel like I can judge it pretty well. 😉 Today, I’ll share more about this fun cookbook and one of my favorite recipes from it, Street Fair Corn!

 [wprm-recipe-jump]  

Upon first glance at the cover, you’ll immediately be drawn to the saucy, sloppy, Tempeh Reuben. I have to admit, I had to shoot this thing a couple of times to get the look just right, but it was worth it! The Reuben is accompanied by the quintessential Brooklyn Egg Cream, a sparkling chocolate drink. You’ll find NY-style bagels, Manhattan Glam Chowder, Classic NYC Pizza, and New York Cheesecake. They’re not messing around when it comes to the classics!

For the chapters we have:

• The Flavors of New York City
• The Basics
• Breakfast at Tiffany’s
• Power Lunch
• Start Spreading the News
• Supper Club
• Farmer’s Market
• On the Side (where you’ll find the Street Fair Corn)
• How Sweet it is
• and Being Vegan in New York City

Personally, I love all of the personal anecdotes they have in their recipe descriptions. Like tributes to grandparents, family friends and companion animals!

Aside from the Street Fair Corn, a few of my other favorite recipes are the Street Cart Pretzels (p. 68), General Tso’s Chicken (p. 102), and Zeppole (p. 172). And, I will FOR SURE being using their vegan restaurant directory for when I’m in New York later this month! So helpful.

Now, for the recipe and NYC Vegan giveaway! Enter after the tasty Street Fair Corn, if you’re 18 & older, in the US. 😀

Street Fair Corn

Yield: 4

Summer in New York City means weekend street fairs. The fairs have no rides or games. Instead, avenues are closed to traffic for several blocks, where dozens of vendors sell food. One of the most popular foods is Mexican Street Corn—freshly grilled sweet corn coated in a mixture of cheese and spiced mayonnaise. We created a vegan version of this dish that tastes even better than the original. (From NYC Vegan, copyright © 2017 by Michael Suchman and Ethan Ciment. Used by permission. Photo by Jackie Sobon.)

• 1/4 cup nondairy sour cream
• 1/4 cup nondairy parmesan, , plus more for serving

2. Place the corn directly on the hot grill and cook, rotating occasionally, until cooked through and charred in spots on all sides, about 8 minutes total.
3. Remove the corn from the grill and transfer to a serving plate. Use a pastry or basting brush to generously coat each ear of corn with the mayonnaise mixture. Sprinkle with extra cheese and chili powder and serve immediately with lime wedges.
