Also I have an idea for faux French vegan bowl, but it isn't that good yet.
Basic gist:
Croutons, on top of the croutons caramelized onions and mushrooms, on top of that red wine reductions sauce, with some arugula for garnish, nice peppery taste.
Idea is that croutons will be crispy on outside but chewy on inside. So far no success :-( Tried cooking them with high heat for a very short time in the oven, but no success. Should I be using a pan or something? Like sauteeing them?
I've never heard of a crouton that's crispy outside, and chewy inside. I'm not sure how you'd keep the moisture in. If there's a bread thread going, ask them.

I appreciate the thought OP but I expect imminent shiposting to begin. Something about the word "vegan" just sets people off.
Jack Evans
Alright, I'[ll bite.
I'm not vegan and god willing I never will be, but I am diabetic, and looking to replace my high carb pastas with low carb alternatives. People tell me "snoodles" are a way to go, or shirataki noodles if I can find them.
My quesiton is this: I know these noodles are meant for broth noodles like ramen/udon dishes, but how do they fare with a standard carbonara/alfredo/marinara sauce? does the flavor compliment them, or does it detract?
Basically, I want an italian meal, but without semolina, can it be done?

>Carbs on top of carbs with carbs, carbs and carbs, on top of high carbsauce, with some fiber for garnish
You're no vegan.
Grayson Cook
And the shitposting begins.
Dylan Hughes
It's not shitposting, it's true. Thats probably more average carbs then a fucking mickey D;s burger combo. If its supposed to be vegan, pad it out with more fiber. Nobody should be eating 5 units of carbs in one serving.
Angel Rivera
vegetarians welcome? (or just picture it without the cheese)

>Carrot patties I'm intrigued, tell me more.
Camden Ortiz
sweet potato, polenta, red lentils, ginger, mash together and spice it up with some red chilis and lemon zest.
Dominic Jenkins
What's the white veg left of the tzatziki ? I presume cauliflower but I'm not sure.
Chase Foster
why call it carrot patties than, you deem yourself an artist huh?
Caleb Robinson
why try to get chewy and crunchy in the croutons, that wont work. put a nice celeriac puree on the bottom and croutons on top, though the whole composition doesnt sound amazing desu, also replace the arugula with parsley, cause arugula just doesnt work with these things
Dominic Murphy
halloumi
Bentley Lewis
fuck i forgot to type in carrots but yeah, they're the main component
Jace Russell
Yeah, I'm not too stressed about it. I'm 6'4" and weigh a bit under 170 lbs, so... By the way, have any suggestions for improving the recipe?
Of coursh.
K will replace with parsley.
I think what I'll do is actually make toast and slice up the toast.
Brayden Perry
>Idea is that croutons will be crispy on outside but chewy on inside.
How dipping them into a chickpea flour solution like vegan French toast? Outside goes crispy, inside goes custardy.
Also yes, you should fry them.
Hudson Campbell
>shirataki
Do you really really like shitting? If not, avoid.
Connor Gray
Indifferent? I already get constipated from semolina as it is.
Asher Wright
Even a couple of grams of glucomannan makes you shit an extra time per day. If you just eat 100 gram of Shirataki be prepared to be shitting 3+ times a day. The texture isn't that good any way.
Fuck weebs. There are a bunch of low carb pastas, Vegan and otherwise. try any of those without an ingredient which will make you shit multiple times a day.
William Hernandez
Such as?
Eli Jackson
Just try a couple and see what you can stomach. Flavour wise and digestion wise.
>Literally cut vegetable strands Whats the point? I want an alternative to grain, not more vegetable.
Elijah Torres
Adopted a vegetarian diet a few weeks ago. Made among other things pita filled with Indian veggie curry, raw bell pepper, onion and cucumber, mango chutney and sour cream. Was not disappointed at all. Tomorrow I will make something very similar to pic related - pita filled with falafel, crisp raw veggies, pickled jalapenos and cucumber - topped with some tahini sauce.
I do eat dairy products and a few eggs ...for now.

>For now Oh come off it. Vegetarianism is s upid but at least it has its merits and understandings, Vegan is just plain stupid and a pointless reason to give up actual good cheeses and milk products.
Joshua Murphy
literally cut thick toast into cubes
William Smith
My idea is to avoid eating anything with eyes - so guess cheese and eggs are OK :)
Josiah Sanders
>Without eyes Guess you can't eat peas or fruit then.
John Fisher
No potatoes either. user is going to fucking die of retardation before the veganism gets him.
Eli Russell
heh.. Let me rephrase - I dont want to eat anything with a nervous system :)
Aiden Thomas
>By the way, have any suggestions for improving the recipe? Use beans as the main component and just put some croutons on top. This way you get a little more protein and fiber.
Alexander Butler
Or you could even try using roasted chickpeas, if you slightly undercook them in the oven they can have that slightly crisp outside and chewy inside you might be looking for
Evan Ramirez
The healthiest people I know are the Methodists and they are all vegetarians. They live the longest and are the healthiest. I can see why you would enjoy bullying people who are rubbing their lifestyle in your face - but I dont believe I rubbed my personal philosophies upon you :)
Daniel Mitchell
/bread thread/ poster here. it's gonna be really hard to get a crouton the way you're describing it. it's either gonna be all crunch or all chewy. i'd recommend using a crusty sourdough or whole wheat "artisan" type bread, ripping it into big chunks, and then just letting them dry out for a little while. then quick sauté them to toast the outside, like you would for a panzanella.
Jeremiah Rivera
It's mostly for health reasons. I mean I care about the animals and all that, but not so much.

That sauce is my absolute favourite with normies loving it
I've been thinking about making a lentil-based bolognese for some time, but I never got around to it. Yours looks good, might give it a try soon
Cooper Long
Wh-... what happened to the webms of the too-happy-and-jiggly lady? I liked complaining about her.
Caleb Powell
whats the point if you're using actual pasta? you might as well have just done tomato.
Owen Taylor

Carson Edwards
vegan pizza ideas anyone? i found blue cheese is the best vegan cheese especially as it hold its taste when heated all the rest just taste of coconut.
Andrew Lewis
Not sure what you mean user
Jayden Bell
lentil ragú/bolognese is also great for using in a vegan lasagna.
Jace Nelson
I have a pretty decent way of making fake grilled cheese. Its not healthy at all and relies on a specific brand ingredient, but they taste better than the ones I had growing up. I had a non-vegetarian/vegan friend try it and he said it reminded him of gruyere.
So the cheese part is store bought, the Chao brand, the regular flavored white slices. It's the only type of cheese that doesnt taste like chemicals to me, although Ive been told that other brands have since improved. Use two slices. Just replace this with whatever if you cant find it, or a regular neutral tasting cheese if youre vegetarian.
The next part is really important. Spread a very thin layer of red/brown miso paste on the pieces of cheese. This way the sandwich will have pungency and more depth that makes it really good. Just be careful cause its easy to overdue it. That one friend says he makes normal grilled cheese with the added miso now. Thats pretty much it, then just make it whatever way you prefer, but I'll green text my preference
>spread mayo on both sides of the bread (I like ezekiel) >fry one side, flip over >add cheese slices and put together >flip it until it looks done

Obvious troll. Everybody knows how farming works and I know I don't have to explain it to you.
