As a pickle fan I’m really curious how this tastes. I assume like pickle?
Vegan Home Cooks
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.
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.
Yes, like potato soup with pickles in it.
Ah, so very close to that old world recipe (Nordic? Slavic?) "Lurchenhürrlen". I can almost smell this picture. The steamy tang stands out.
My exposure has been through polish diaspora cooking, so I'd say this particular dish is closer to Zupa Ogórkowa, but it's certainly cobbled together and not "authentic".
Authentically tasty, tho 😋
Very curious as I like both pickles and soup. Kale is pretty good too. Any chance of quantities, method etc? Or is it like my cooking and just chuck it in as you go? TIA
I didn't follow a recipe, as it's based on taste memory for me. In general this is how I did it:
-Made a veggie stock
-Added cubed russet potatoes (waxy potatoes are better suited, but that's what I have)
-Added cubed carrots
-Added about 1 cup of chopped fermented pickles ("sour" pickles if you are going to buy them, they are sold refrigerated).
-Added all the kale I had on hand (chiffonaded)
-Added a hearty sprinkle of soy chunks
-Added dill (I only had dried 😬)
-Cook until it's all soft.
For the creamy bit I scooped out some broth as it was cooking (let it cool) and blended some sunflower seeds (de-shelled) for a few mins in a high speed blender. I then added it back to the soup. You don't have to do this, but I wanted to try. It makes it more hearty if that's what you are going for.
Excellent! Thank you ;-)
