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.
Be nice and supportive, no one cares about your criticism or fixes. If it isn't nice and positive your comment will be removed
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. Grown Ups Only.
Cooking for our kids is great, Acting like one is not. While this isn't a community for adult material we expect everyone who participates to be an adult and act like one. Please follow the Anarchists Code of Conduct. No profane usernames allowed.
And the work nobody shows lol
From this book: https://theeburgerdude.com/cookbook/
I am not very good at deep frying, and made some mistakes. Probably I could do these in my oven pretty well. Magnificent spicing to the batter, never paying for overpriced and bland nuggets again.
I think I deep fry at home like once or twice a year max because it's a pain in the butt. But the output is always so nice and evenly crisp in a way you just can't replicate through baking. Inevitably I come back to the conclusion that the effort-health-reward tradeoff isn't quite worth it on a regular basis.
I've got to say, though, those look frickin delicious, and I'm a bit jealous. :)
Yeah I go years without doing it, then get into a craze and do it maybe 5 times in 3 months and then get sick of it.
Generally stuff ends up too oily for my tastes but the texture is always unbeatable.
I need to have a good play with my oven and find the best way to cook crispy stuff with it.
Every try in an air fryer? I just can’t be bothered to do any actual frying with oil these days. I save my fried food consumption for when I’m out with friends and the only vegan option is French fries or tots 😂
That being said, what’s that sauce you got going on in the pic?
Air friers are just convention ovens so yes given that my oven is a convection oven :p
The sauce is in the recipe book. I think it's an excellent book and would encourage you to have a look at his website/get his book. Idk I feel weird copypasting stuff since writing books is extremely hard and the recipeblog industry isn't exactly known for it's reliable income.
