The Stories and Steps Behind Plant-Based Cooking
Wegany started in our own kitchen. As a vegan family, cooking has always been part of our everyday life. Like many families, we wanted meals that were nourishing and delicious, but also simple enough to make on a normal busy day.
Over the years, we cooked, tested, failed, adjusted, tasted again — and slowly discovered what really makes plant-based cooking work. How to build flavour. Which ingredients are worth always having at home. How to turn simple vegetables, grains and legumes into meals everyone actually looks forward to eating.
A Family’s Perspective
Most importantly, everything we share in this course has been tested where it matters most to us: at our own family table.

WeGany Hints & Tricks
That is why we created Wegany Vegan Cooking Basics. We wanted to make the beginning of plant-based cooking easier for anyone who feels overwhelmed by complicated recipes, unfamiliar ingredients or the idea that vegan food requires a completely different way of cooking. It doesn’t.
Starting a course also meant figuring out how to actually record one. How do we capture clear sound, set up the cameras, and create a space where conversation feels natural? There was plenty to learn, but the experience we had gained through our other projects came in handy. Photography, video, storytelling, and communication all found their place in the process. We brought that knowledge together, experimented, and learned as we went.
Practical Everyday Techniques
With each recording, we became more comfortable with the technical side, giving us more room to focus on the people, their stories, and the conversations we wanted to share.
You simply need a few good foundations, some practical techniques and the confidence to start experimenting. This course is our way of sharing what we have learned in our own kitchen — the little tricks, combinations and basics that have become part of the way our family eats every day. You don’t need to be vegan. You don’t need to be an experienced cook. And you definitely don’t need a perfect kitchen.
Just bring your curiosity.
How a Recipe Comes Together
Step 1
It usually starts with a craving, a seasonal ingredient, something we’ve tasted while travelling, or simply what we have in the fridge.
Step 2
Then comes the fun part. We cook together, experiment with flavours, change ingredients, add a little more of this or less of that — until everyone at the table is happy.
Step 3
Only the recipes we genuinely love and would make again become part of WeGany. Tried at home, approved by our family, and ready to be shared with yours.
Where Vegan Flavor Begins
Char for Depth
Blistered tomatoes and flame-kissed peppers bring a smoky sweetness that gives plant-based dishes a satisfying backbone.
Pantry with Purpose
Miso, tahini, and preserved lemon do the heavy lifting, adding savory richness, creaminess, and bright acidity.
Contrast on Every Plate
Crisp herbs cut through silky sauces, while a little heat plays against the natural sweetness of roasted vegetables.
“Vegan cooking gives us room to play: every ingredient is a chance to find a new flavor, and the best part is sharing that discovery.”
Anja, The Founder of WeGany
