Ok, I just made these sausages: this is one of the best vegan meat recipe I've ever eaten. I added two more ingredients: 1. Some fennel seeds (blended) 2. A teaspoon of tomato paste I just fried them in some oil (1 tablespoon) no batter. They were delicious! I used them as one of the toppings on my pizza 😋
@davidbgreensmith Жыл бұрын
I can see how the tomato would make a huge difference. When I was a meat eater I would put tomato ketchup in beef burgers. It made all the difference.
@homemademama54594 жыл бұрын
I think if you are going to try this again you should add seasonings that are in regular sausage like garlic powder onion powder paprika fennel crushed red pepper black or white pepper and sage. Also you could add ground up mushrooms or a little mushroom powder. this sounds like it would be fun to play with and experiment on.

O mon Dieu ! Such a good Idea ! I found on my passed away and lovely grand-ma old books a War cooking book and there is a lot of méat subtitutes recipes. Evrything wasn't super tasty but, a " Fake lamb " recipe was sooooo good ( I also "veganise" it because it was végétarienne) and now it's my little secret 🥰😎😉 . Also that proove something. I Heard so many people who told me " yea you know , In peace Time eating good product as vegetable it's ok but juste imagin if it's thé War ? It's a luxury and people would eat there own docs and cats" and when I red m'y grand-ma s' Book , I understand that argument was actually F****** WRONG ! 🤣

In both Britain and Ireland we have the black and white puddings, of which the white is made using oatmeal for body. Then of course you have Scotland's haggis. I'm sure the author would have had these in mind. I make a white pudding by freezing tofu to get that meatier texture and then adding it to oatmeal with the spices and herbs normally used in Irish white pudding. You can also buy vegetable suet, and when I have it I throw that into the mix. Wrap up the sausages in cling-film, steam and then cool. Then slice and fry as traditional. The tofu adds protein and at the right ratio with the oatmeal cuts stodginess.

that looked fun! lol love your facial expressions =D connie's rawsome kitchen had a similar recipe and i had made my own version of it. i make quite a few patties to freeze. i used dry rolled oats (the thick ones), ground flax, herbs spices, tamari... i pulsed in the food processor: onion, garlic, celery, carrot, mushrooms (don't tell my husband, he ''hates'' mushrooms), some kale spines, peppers etc/whatever i have on hand. mix everything up in a very large mixing bowl, add some boiling water, mixing with a spoon until it's mold-able but on the dry side and make patties with them. i brush oil on a big electric griddle and fried them until browned on each side and put them on racks to cool. i put a square of parchment between them and froze them in recycled plastic bread bags. --to cook, line the bottom of skillet with sliced onion, place the frozen patties on top, pour over boiling water, some tamari and seasonings, cover and cook for half hour. flip them after 15minutes and add water if the gravy is getting too thick or evaporated/burning... my husband loves these with mashed potatoes and veggies. the patties turn out kind of like salisbury steak.

Have you ever noticed how many recipes labeled "curry chicken" or "orange carrots" contain the least amount of curry or orange zest? The amount is usually 1/4 teaspoon, like that would make soooo much difference... like anyone could actually taste it.

Perhaps it was there for more of the sausage fattiness and mouth feel of a real sausage than actual flavour? So keep in the yeast extract for the flavour. I think I’ll give this a go.

I was thinking that substituting just yeast extract for suet without additional fat might make it dry.

Also, I love the nostalgia of this recipe!

My favorite sausage has apple and maple. I'm going to find the best no meat recipe then add finely chopped apples, maple syrup, sage, a bit if poultry seasoning and chick-un or a low sodium chicken flavoring. I already bought freeze dried apples for my pantry so I can make yummy faux sausages if we have a meat shortage. So much doom and gloom news about impending food shortages. I can be vegetarian and let the people that only want to eat meat have the meat that's available. I'm old, had my share of meat over the decades. The older I get the less meat I eat anyway.

I think this could be a good base recipe to jump off to other improvisations. Make sausage one time, then some sort of patty the next, a replacement for tofu or seitan for variety. Add different veggies and some different grains for texture variations. The fact that you can shape and mould it is another plus. Mix and match. :)

I think you should have added some fat to the recipe to replace the suet. I don't believe the suet was in there for meaty flavor but it was in to add some fat to the sausage patties because sausage are usually somewhat fatty. You could have added a tablespoon of any type of vegetable oil or animal fat. I personally usually add coconut oil or a light olive oil.
