A varied, handy collection of Rust Belt culinary favorites, updated for today's vegan diet.

The Rust Belt Vegan Kitchen is a community cookbook created by professional and home chefs who live and work in the Rust Belt. Recipes collected here represent the diversity of the region, and include vegan versions of:

- Polish pierogis

- Detroit coney dogs

- Hungarian paprikash

- Slovak kolaches

- Mexican conchas

- German sauerkraut balls

- Cincinnati chili

- Slovenian fish fry

- Chitterings, and many more.

The cooks and chefs collected here offer stories about their recipes as well as family and culinary traditions. The book also includes resources on how to stock a vegan pantry, guides to useful equipment, and basic how-tos for "veganizing" staples.

Infusing old world recipes with a new level of creativity for a changing audience, The Rust Belt Vegan Kitchen is unpretentious, accessible, and fun.
