Dairy Free

No dairy here, and none needed for incredible, craveable flavor.  Most Japanese dishes don't contain dairy products.  Dairy wasn't common in the Japanese diet until the late Nineteenth Century.  And while the recipes here aren't all Japanese, they are all dairy-free and delicious.

I started No Recipes back in 2007 as a place to share original dishes I'd created with friends. It's since evolved into something much bigger than I could have imagined, but as it grew, the focus shifted from inventing dishes to improving classics. In the spirit of how No Recipes began, I'm bringing back my weekly original recipes for all of my supporters and friends!
