A stew is a dish that you leave to ‘stew’ on a low flame until it is cooked. A stew is often made using only a little bit of fat, with wine or water added to the pot. This is to prevent the food from cooking further with the lid on, and the dish remains juicy. It is not always necessary to add additional liquid to a stew, as liquid could already be present in ingredients like the vegetables.
The primary purpose of stewing is to ensure that tough vegetables or other ingredients become softer and the flavours combine. Thanks to the full flavour of a stew, we commonly use the method to create a delicious dish. This means it is perfect if you are following a diet. You won’t miss out on any vitamins and minerals that dissolve in water or fat, as the sauce is also eaten.
Who is Stefano Vicinoadio? Here at Bertyn we got to know him at an organic fair in Germany. We immediately hit it off and it turned into a great working relationship. Stefano is actually a photographer, and it is his passion. But his love for cooking has resulted in the most delicious recipes... together with great photos.
Stefano describes himself as colourful, loud, a vegan, a friend, a discoverer, a digital nomad and straightforward. Stefano changed tack and started to eat and live a healthy vegan lifestyle His life took a wholly different course when he became very ill. At the age of 33 he was going with all guns blazing, but he didn't spare a thought for his own health - he smoked, drank a lot, worked up to 16 hours a day and drank around two litres of coffee daily. Then he developed two serious hernias, as well as being very overweight. He realised that he could not continue this way and decided on a complete turnaround. He quit drinking and smoking and slowly changed his diet, until he finally went almost completely vegan. Vegan, a step further than vegetarian Stefano's recipes are all vegan. A vegan eats no animal products whatsoever, taking it a step beyond vegetarianism. Vegans don't eat eggs, dairy products or honey. These recipes by Stefano will prove to you that there's still a great deal left to work with. See the recipes and try them out for yourself!

“Seitan is great, I love it. Seitan (pronounced say-tan) is one of the most versatile faux-meat products you’ll ever experience.”
“How seitan tastes depends entirely upon how you flavor it: it’s essentially a sponge for flavor.”
