Vegan waffles that don’t suck
Today I awoke with a craving for waffles. And tho’ I loves me some Isa Moskowitz and Terry Romero for all their vegan cookbooks & recipes, I wanted waffles that didn’t require ground flax seeds or pumpkin purée. We had a container of soy yogurt in the refrigerator and it makes a great substitution for [...]
Fresh Feeling
When I was eight years old my mom gave me and my two younger siblings a movie option: we could either see Disney’s re-release of Bambi, or we could see Halloween III: Season of the Witch. We jumped up and down chanting the latter option like we children were witches dancing around a bonfire. Then [...]
Vegan Betty
This is my second attempt at baking bread. Before I had a chance to photograph my first attempt, Justin was already in the kitchen with a bread knife making quick work of the loaf I baked in a proper loaf pan. These loaves were permitted to sit on a cool rack long enough for me [...]
Food Bites No. 18: Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
Sorry for the lack of recipes, I was busy redesigning my website. You know how those things can be. And, please, don’t even get me started on Google Analytics failing on W3C validation. Jesus.
As much as we use Vegan with a Vengeance and The Veganomicon in the kitchen, I can’t say I’m a fan of their [...]
Food Bites No. 17: Bánh mì
One of the best things about living in Seattle is the Vietnamese culture. Unlike Americanized “Chinese” food, Vietnamese dishes rely heavily on fresh vegetables and herbs. One of my favorite Vietnamese classics is bánh mì, a baguette sammich filled with fried tofu, sliced jalapeño peppers, spears of cucumber and pickled daikon radish & carrots, and [...]
Food Bites No. 16: Blub
A couple years ago when I visited Milan, Italy I dined at the restaurant Joia where I sampled some of the most inventive vegan meals I’ve ever experienced. It’s a shame, really, that I had to travel to another continent just to enjoy a vegan meal that celebrates vegetables rather than replicate a meat dish. But [...]
Food Bites No. 15: Saag Paneer
I loves me some Indian food. Ever since high school when I attended Sunday prasadam at the Hare Krsna temple, I made an effort to learn how to prepare Indian-style cooking at home. The smells and flavors of spices in Indian cooking are as vast as the people of India. My favorite dish, when I ate [...]
Food Bites No. 14: Chocolate Crunchies
Yesterday as I was cleaning the kitchen I lifted a 50 lb bag of flour without bending my knees. There is such a huge bag of flour in the kitchen because it’s fall which allows for cooking and baking without roasting like root vegetables. My back decided to repay my bad decision-making skills with a [...]
Food Bites No. 13: Hail Seitan!
Fun facts about vegetable proteins!
Protein sources for veg*ns come from a variety of sources, the most obvious being tofu which is a cake made from coagulated soy milk.
Tempeh is the whole soybean which is fermented and pressed into a cake form.
Soybeans and other legumes provide a lot of protein which, when combined with whole grains [...]
Food Bites No. 12: Veggie Curry Patties
Last night’s dinner was one of those impromptu meals where you have leftovers in the refrigerator you’d hate to see go to waste: roasted spaghetti squash with plenty left after our initial meal; carrots from the farmer’s market in the crisper drawer; and a large bag of onions. I decided that the best fate for these [...]
