i made this recipe today, and was totally blown away, it tasted like real ground beef. One trick i did for it to have more beefy taste was to add decent amount of fat(olive oil), until i could see little glistening on mushroom-walnut mix, because beef has fat in it too. So to mimic that i added olive oil, and followed rest of the steps, it was a total hit. Wish i could add the picture of my fake beef. Thank you for this video

Marmite added to this gives a very meaty/umami taste. You can order it online if you can't find it in local stores. I like it in chili, stews, soups, Shepherd's pie. Anything that needs a Beefy taste.

@SaccharinSweet123 2 жыл бұрын

Dried mushrooms work even better! Something about the drying and rehydration process makes them so umami packed and gives them a meaty texture. I'm an omnivore and if someone presented me with a beef mince or a dried and rehydrated mushroom mix, I'd pick the mushrooms. The texture is sublime.

@@paquefeal2385 it is not really a recipe. I just used my food processor and did a quick chopping of the eggplant and then threw in some walnuts. I never measured, just go with your gut depending on how ya feel. Then I would throw in whatever seasonings that compliment the meal that you are making. I often use it as a lasagna meat so I would throw in the Italian seasoning, some basil, garlic and onion, thyme, whatever. I have also Don burritos with it and I use a steak seasoning blend or taco spice blend depending on the mood of the day. It just works really well.

This is awesome. I was just talking to my mom about how when I was a kid I didn’t want beef so she would feed me lots of mushrooms for my protein. Lately I’ve been eating more meat and meat products and I re-fired up my acid reflux and felt so bloated and gross. I said to my Husband “no meat this week” I almost caved last night but he reminded me about why I said no meat. So instead of beef for nachos I made a combo of black beans, mushrooms and onions for my nacho “meat” no acid reflux, no bloating and woke up this morning feeling AMAZING!
