Come join the Vegan Home Cooks!

Participation is really easy, just take a picture of what you cooked today and post it, no recipes needed.


This is a public forum for a discord server of friends who are all vegans and cook at home for their families.

We are here to share some inspiration, to see what others are doing and to stay engaged in something that is both our hobby and a required task.

This forum is not a "food porn" community, a recipe book or a place to teach you how to cook. It is a place for people who already cook to meet other people like themselves and provide on topic support and conversation as much as long distance friends on the internet can do. We are doing show and tell about what we made and we don't care about its instagram worthiness.

Veganism isn’t a diet but I have to eat every day. This is for the vegan home cooks. Anything non vegan will be deleted.


Rules

1. Be Vegan.

If it is not vegan it doesn’t belong here… or anywhere.

2. Post home cooking.

No restaurant or fast food. This is what every other vegan space is about and we don’t want to promote any large or small business tyrants.

3. Join the Discord

We’re an active community of vegan home cooks that like to talk about what we are cooking today.

4. Do not make any rude comments or digs at anyone’s food, cooking style, specific diet, restrictions or technique.

While we are all cooks, we all have different requirements and we’re not asking for help, we are doing show and tell.

5. Do not use trademarked brands

Use generic names. We’re cooking with tvp not whatever business brands it and we’re not trying to turn comrades into billboards. No plant-based vegan-pandering capitalist crap like Impossible, Beyond, Dairy-company owned “vegan” cheese.

6. Do not ask for a recipe without otherwise engaging the OP (No posts that are just “recipe?”)

We are not food bloggers. Sometimes we're excited to share and will tell you the recipes we used but this isn't required. Instead try doing your own research and tell us what you learned and we can talk about it.

7. Careful with making unasked for suggestions.

Sometimes we like to hear suggestions but you should be nice about it and know the person you are making suggestions to. We are in the discord and you can get to know us that way. If you are just a visitor from the fediverse, this isn’t the place for you to start telling other people what to do.

8. Adults Only.

While this isn't a community for adult material we expect everyone who participates to be an adult. If you have a gross and profane username you will be removed.

Blueberry Pancakes (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by hamid to c/veganhomecooks
 
 

dry - 1.5 cups ww flour, .5 tsp baking soda, 1.5 tsp baking powder, .25 tsp salt

wet - 2 tbsp flax meal mixed with 6 tbsp water + 1.5 cups soy milk mixed with 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar + 2 tbsp maple syrup or molasses + one mashed banana

Mix dry, mix flax egg, mix milk, mix egg and milk, mash the banana and add some of the milk to it to loosen, add the wet into the flour and stir, add the banana mixture and fold in

cook on 350 f griddle 1/4 cup sized dollops

To make this easier I have 3 scoops, 1 "half cup", 1 "2 tbsp", and 1 "half tsp"

the 2 tbsp scoop is a coffee scoop

it helps becayse the egg is 1 scoop flax + 3 scoops water, the milk is 3 1/2 cups + 1 scoop vinegar + 1 scoop maple syrup

same with the other ones- pancakes are 3 scoops of flour, 1 small scoop of baking soda, 3 small scoop of baking powder, dash salt

I pressure cooked all the greens I had before htey went bad so it was a bunch of bok choy, spinach and cilantro for 0 minutes until cooked down, then i simmered with home made curry seasoning, ginger paste and tofu. I made basmati rice and salad to go with it.

I used unsweetened tamarind concentrate with a bit of water a the sauce, so the cauliflower was a bit tart, but overall very good!

I want to veganize this wet salad recipe.

  1. Probably gonna replace the spaghetti with beans, at least once I've done a test run.
  2. I'd like to partially or completely replace the mayo with something less fatty, maybe cashew? Hopefully some black Himalaya salt can emulate the egg flavor.

  • 500g (17.5oz) spaghetti (dry weight)
  • 600-700g (21-25oz) smoked sausage (about 1/3" pieces?) - Seitan w/liquid smoke, probably.
  • 5-7 hard boiled eggs (diced/chopped or mashed even) - nothing I guess
  • 3 apples (chopped)
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • 300-350g (10.5-12.5oz) mayonnaise - I figure using a cashew based cream I can replace both mayo and egg at once. Might add some mayo or oil if the salad needs fat.
  • 500-600g (17.5-21oz) pickled cucumber (vinegar, not brine - chopped)

Stir in some milk if the salad starts getting dry.


I'd love some instructions on the mayo/egg replacement, as well as the smoked sausage, to make sure the chances of success are as high as possible on the first try.
