Taking a dish and swapping the meat to store-bought soy pieces is boring, yes, and will probably not convince an old meat lover you can live without animal products. But tempeh and seitan is an interesting product in itself imo and can easily be made at home which is of course more appreciated by all. But yeah using soy stuff for every dish is expensive in the long run and feels boring, but I think it's good and like it.

Some friends of mine have done meringues with the chickpea water from a can/packet and using a hand-whisk will get you nowhere.

I have been vegetarian for almost 2 years now. I am going go vegan since I don't eat dairy or egg products at all either. What are some types of food that have dairy or egg in it that are otherwise unnoticeable?

You will develop some sort of eagle eye when you are reading the ingredient label on stuff to see if it's vegan or not.

Yeah, whatever goes with pickled onions and the greens because that's where I feel balanced and close at hand. In particular, I have many cans of black beans and was wondering if there is a hummus-like spread I can make out of them, possibly mixing up the other flavors to match, such as moving from red pickled onions to yellow, where I can involve turmeric to connect with the cumin that I would naturally put in the bean item.

Is there a recipe or keyword I should look out for if I want something like that and lasts a week in the fridge?

...as I type out the question I realize I can just Google it and it turns out the keyword is "dip." Thank you, thread, for laying the backbone on which to affix my curiosity.

Garlic, grated ginger, black beans, juice of lime, maybe some chili flakes, cumin, fried in a pan and mashed off heat. I'll try to make it and post pictures tonight!


That sounds very good. For spreads I have been doing a simple thing by mixing kidney beans, olive oil, garlic and lemon juice, adding salt and pepper to taste once a week lately.

Vegetarian carries the implication of following a strict Buddhist diet in a lot of Chinese influenced areas, and they also don't eat onion or garlic. Kind of like Kosher or Halal instead of what is usually referred to as vegetarian in the west.


Okay, never seen nor heard of that. I get it.

All vegans should take B12 supplements really. Fiddling with fortified foods is infinitely harder and not really more beneficial in any way. Every other nutritional need you can fulfill easily with a balanced diet.

Yeah, this. Nutrition Facts has a video on it as well.

Adding to pizza chat: people need to give cheeseless (and cheezeless) pizzas a chance! Probably the most impressive dish I've ever served guests was a rosemary potato pizza. It's thin-sliced yellow potatoes tossed in olive oil and spices and layered on a crust. That afore-linked blogger also has a very good crust recipe.

The potato pizza is great. Try adding some lemon juice on it aswell.

My fav pizza toppings are

Tomato sauce, garlic, olives, oregano, fresh button mushroom, onion.

I ate in Estonia and I guess it’s a proper marinara pizza (except the mushrooms) which shouldn’t include mozzarella.

e: When I go for pizza with friends I order whatever Vegetarian one they have and just tell them to omit the cheese and its great. Really not needed at all. Unless they offer a plant based slimy option.
The best place in the city use muhammara as a base insted of tomato sauce on their vegan pizza and holy poo poo you need to try that asap.

Love the thread! I'm finally trying to make the jump and this is a great resource.


Crispbread with anything you can spread. Tabbouli, hummus, harissa, duxelle, peanut butter, etc.

They don't break up. Minimal crumbs. ~35 cal ea.

I've been buying Wasa's. At my local grocer, it's $3.50 per pack of 20, or, $0.17 each.





As a swede I eat 100kg crisp bread a year and I couldn’t stand peanut butter on it. :(

This is fuckin genius. I haven't had chili in years because I couldn't figure out what to put in it.

Depending on how it comes, i buy it in canned with brine in triangles. Just tear them up a little and it will be stringy and chewy and doesnt lose its texture.

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.

Made this last week and i would make again. very good sauce

New (or 'fresh' in Sweden) potato salad is a fav.

https://www.scandikitchen.co.uk/recipe-simple-potato-salad/

The dill is important and chives. Put a bunch of dill in the boiling water with the potatoes and add more fresh dill when serving.

Most common curry powders that everyone has eaten in Sweden has coriander, tumeric, fenugreek, cayenne, cumin, fennel, black pepper. Some brands add small amounts of ginger, cinnamon, cardamom. Just a generic spice mix.
