That’s a fantastic post. I will advocate for that silken tofu recipe. I basically know it off my heart and I make it all the time. Easy and delicious.

I love this thread! Lately, I've been eating chickpea salad slot. It's made with chickpeas, vegan mayo, agave nectar, toasted pecans, red grapes, and diced Granny Smith. Make it into a sandwich with red onion and lettuce on thick 9-grain bread from my local bakery.

Some recent vegan meals, which you may have seen in various other threads, but I like to post here too since it's kind of fun to have a running tally of all the various vegan meals one can eat and since some people say they like the posts: Khatti meethi tinda (apple gourd) masala. Onion parathas and cabbage parathas - flatbreads stuffed with onion or cabbage mixtures. Onion parathas are near the bottom of the picture but you can also tell which is which because you can see the onions in the onion parathas in a few places. Moonphali wale karele ki sabzi, aka bitter gourd with peanuts. Potatoes with green beans Punjabi style. Vankaya ulli karam, aka eggplant stuffed with an onion paste. Chawli ki phali & aloo sabzi, aka potatoes and green beans. Stuffed bharwa tinda (apple gourd). Bedmi aloo sabzi, aka potato soup. Or, as they put it in India, where soup does not exist, potatoes in gravy. Aloo tamatar jhol, another soupy potato dish. Aloo phulkopir chorchori, aka Bengali-style potatoes and cauliflower

Made this: https://minimalistbaker.com/saucy-moroccan-spiced-lentils/ No idea what this recipe actually is, seems like it's just spiced lentils with koshari sauce, but it tastes good. I had it with ras el hanout couscous.

No pics, but I was watching QI on Netflix and they gave vegan comedian Romesh Raganathan a sandwich which he scoffed at and said was insulting to give to a vegan. But then he ate it and said it was absolutely fantastic. It was a toast sandwich - a slice of toast seasoned with salt and pepper and sandwiched between two slices of bread. I had to try it and weirdly....it’s really quite good. I’ve spruced it up a bit with cayenne pepper, olive oil and tomato sauce, plus lettuce and gherkins (and two slices of toast) and...I can’t believe I’m about to say this...the texture reminds me of a Big Mac. I haven’t missed meat but I have missed that texture and it hits the spot perfectly. Anyway, I can highly recommend a toast sandwich (not a sentence I ever thought I’d say). Edit: oh my god what if I fried the bread instead?!

A fried slice sandwich sounds like it would be excellent on a hangover.

You can of course make a mash out of other legumes as well, but I wouldn't consider it the same thing since fava beans have a pretty distinct earthy flavour. Note that there's different variants of them, the big pale ones have a lighter taste than the small brown ones

Yup, I love air frying my tofu. I keep a lot of tofu on hand, and one of my favorite preparations is tearing up thawed tofu into strips/chunks, seasoning it with whatever I'm in the mood for that day, and air frying until it's almost chicken-like in texture. Very versatile!

I wanted a new vegan sandwich topping and thought of trying out marinated mushrooms in that role. I just stuffed a bunch of sliced mushrooms in a 1 litre (~4 cup) mason jar, added a desilitre (1/2 cup) of olive oil, couple tablespoons of cider vinegar and a lot of assorted Mediterranean spices. A sliced clove or two of garlic and spring onions work well in the mix. Some soy or mushroom sauce brings more umami, chili flakes are also recommended. Mix all of that around a bit and let sit in the fridge overnight, after that put them on everything. Simple yet great

Here's a good recipe: Loa Gan Ma chilli sauce + literally anything I''m alone for the week so I've basically been using leftovers veges cooked in that and served on rice. The black bean chilli sauce is even better imo.

2 penny bottle imp posted:Sauce? i didn't really use a recipe. i had about a cup or so of TVP left in a bag, rehydrated it with vegetable broth per the instructions on the bag. added half an onion, diced fine (leftover from another dinner). mixed in the can of bean sprouts after i'd drained and untangled them a bit. threw in like 2-3 tablespoons or so of chili crisp. the mixture was a bit wet so i mixed in the tail end of a bag of panko, maybe half a cup. made 6 patties and pan fried them. ate one of them with rice and it was a good meal. they freeze well too. i was struggling to find a use for the whole can of bean sprouts in a go. i couldn't find any information about how long they'd keep in the fridge if i only used part of a can.

The most basic "Crispy Chilli in oil" contains sichuan peppercorns, as do the black bean, tofu, et al variants. But they have a lot of other sauces as well. For example their Toban Djan, which I picked up on a whim. I later found out it's sort of like a saltier chinese gochujang. Of the recipes I looked into, this one seemed the most promising. I did a trial run without roasting all the vegetables and procuring the black garlic, and the flavors seem to check out. I think I'll give it a go with the real ingredients soon Mata fucked around with this message at 01:18 on Jul 16, 2020 |

Thanks vegan fanatics - this thread has inspired my wife & I to do an entire week of vegan dinners, using recipes from here and elsewhere around the web. First up this week was beet & bean burgers (recipe from here). Sorry for the slightly shaky photo...I was really excited to eat this one. All these vegan recipes are really making me consider getting a good food processor.

Does anyone have a good vegan/vegetarian Kimchi recipe? I found an ok one on Minimalist baker, but I didn't know if there was other options I hadnt seen in the thread. I do like fishy flavors but have a shellfish allergy so it can be fraught for me.

Bread Set Jettison posted:Does anyone have a good vegan/vegetarian Kimchi recipe? I found an ok one on Minimalist baker, but I didn't know if there was other options I hadnt seen in the thread. I do like fishy flavors but have a shellfish allergy so it can be fraught for me. The last time I made it I used Kenji's recipe https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/01/homemade-vegan-kimchi-recipe.html I think the miso worked fairly well, it gives a nice rounded savoriness. Kenji's recipe diverges from traditional kimchi (as in the way it's most often prepared) in a few ways. One is the use of miso instead of fish sauce/shrimp paste for the umami flavor. Another is he did not use a rice flour paste in the gochugaru mixture. He also made the kimchi more like sauerkraut in that the napa cabbage is not rinsed after salting. That being said, when I've used that general outline (napa cabbage, miso, garlic, ginger, gochugaru, and chives prepared more like sauerkraut) I've like the results. But I can't compare it to traditional methods since I've never made it that way before. If you do try out this recipe, I'll also note some things which need adjustment: - Kenji calls for "1 large head napa cabbage ... about 1 pound total". I don't know what kind of napa cabbages that guy has been buying, but in no way is a large cabbage only 1 pound. Maybe 2-3 pounds. The about 1 cup water was just about right for a large head I think. The garlic may be a little too much, can't remember how much I used. Add the miso to taste, you may want a little more/less depending on your miso. - For salt, it may just be better to weigh it out based on your cabbage weight. The general recommendation for kraut is 1.5-2% by weight of veggies. So add 2% the weight of your cabbage + radish, if using. When using brines it's 5% so last time I adjusted the salt content of the gochugaru paste (gochugaru, garlic, ginger, water, and miso) to be 5%. If you weigh it out there's no way for it to be too salty. - The times I made it I just microplaned the garlic and ginger and didn't bother blending. Seemed to work fine, so if you don't have a blender or don't want to use one just do that. - You can let it go for longer than a day on the counter. It's personal preference really. Kimchi is different from saurkraut in that kraut is fermented much longer at room temp. Googling around, Hyosun from koreanbapsang.com (generally regarded to be a good source for Korean food) mentioned the use of kelp broth which sounded interesting. That may add in a little sea taste but I've never tried it before. Her recipe uses the traditional steps (rinsing the wilted cabbage and using rice flour paste) like I mentioned before, but I've never made her recipe so I can't say if it's good or not. https://www.koreanbapsang.com/vegan-kimchi/

This looks really good and I want to make it. When you talk about the size discrepancy with Kenji's tiny cabbages, did you end up going with using "1 large head napa cabbage" or "about 1 pound total?"
