About this book

Vegana Italiana offers more than 100 vegan recipes inspired by classic Italian dishes. Tara Punzone, owner and chef of Pura Vita, the first 100% plant-based Italian restaurant in the United States, draws on her family's meals and restaurant favorites from her Los Angeles location to create plant-based versions of traditional Italian staples. Punzone grew up in a large Italian family in New York where food was central to community and gatherings. She adopted a vegan lifestyle at age twelve and learned to maintain her culinary traditions and heritage while following a plant-based diet. This cookbook shares her approach alongside personal stories from her childhood in New York and move to California. The book includes pantry-stocking tips and techniques for replicating Italian essentials like mozzarella and ricotta cheese. Recipes are organized by category: The Basics, Antipasti, Insalata e Verdure, Soups and Stews, Pasta, Secondi, and Dolci. Examples include Ravioli Pomodoro, Eggplant Parmigiana, Meatball Parmigiano Hero, and Tiramisu. The cookbook features full-color photography taken at Pura Vita.
