Hermann
Hi, I'm Julius Fiedler, but who's Hermann?
In Germany, Hermann is not only an elegant name, but a ‘Freundschaftskuchen’ (friendship cake). In essence, it is a sweet, yeasted starter dough, which continues to grow over time to a point where you give the natural surplus to your friends to use in a cake. It is basically an edible chain letter. But more importantly, it is the philosophy to pass something on, a cake but also a skill, that might last forever.
During the COVID pandemic, I hosted online sourdough baking classes under the name Baking Hermann. Afterwards, I assisted Jamie Oliver as a food stylist for over a year and now I film and share my own food content. I currently focus on natural plant-based food that is inspired by vegan cultures. 🌾

A bowl of Tunisian comfort food. Lablabi 😍 It’s one of the easiest chickpea dishes I’ve ever made, but packed with flavour thanks to a quick harissa, garlic and lemon juice base.

I’ve waited 3 years for this 🤯
My book Naturally Vegan is now available for pre-order (link below) 🥹
Veganism is not a modern invention. It’s a modern label. Humans have been following restricted diets for over 3,000 years, be it out of religious reasons, due to poverty or because of what was available naturally, and this book is a collection of the food I’ve discovered through my research and travels – dishes from around the world that just happen to be vegan. Words can’t quite describe how excited I am to finally be able to share this perspective on plant-based eating with you.

Have you ever wondered how tempeh is traditionally eaten?
Tempeh may be known as a modern vegan food, but it has deep roots in Indonesian food culture. Tempe Orek is the perfect way to appreciate it in all its glory, and a traditional recipe that converted me to finally like tempeh. Sweet, tangy and spicy… it’s an absolute flavour sensation.

Have you heard of Cold Skin Noodles?! 🍜
After making traditional wheat gluten (the OG seitan), the leftover starches are turned into a batter and steamed into these noodles sheets. They’re then sliced and severed in a fragrant noodle dish. Very unique, very tasty!
