Vegan curd dumplings with vanilla crumbs from Sophia Hoffmann
Matching our restaurant report on the Dinner event in the beautiful Happa restaurant in Berlin we asked you for the recipe for the vegan curd dumplings, which you can easily make yourself with old bread and seasonal fruit. As with all of Sophia Hoffmann's recipes, it's about the conscious handling and appreciation of food paired with vegan nutrition, creativity and, above all, good taste. Unfortunately, bread is thrown away far too often in Germany, even though it can actually be used in so many different ways. You can not only freeze it well, but also use it as breadcrumbs, binding agent or Parmesan substitute. In the past, there was actually always “leftover food” and groceries were stored and/or preserved appropriately. And tackling food waste is one of the most important – if not the tastiest – climate action. That's why we wish you Bon appetit with this delicious dessert including a clear conscience.
