Vegan Palestinian Maqloubeh - One Arab Vegan. Javanese-Inspired “Chicken” Soup (Vegan Soto Ayam) I haven’t properly been teaching my daughter to cook.
Or at least that’s how I felt after reading an article in the New York Times about a mother who has her 10- and 14-year-old sons cook dinner on their own once a week. When I read the article a few weeks ago, my first, defensive thought was, “Impossible! E would cook lasagna every single week.” My second and more disturbing thought was, “Could I really relinquish control of the kitchen and trust that E wouldn’t burn down the house or sever an artery?”
The sad truth of the matter is that, other than teaching her the two easy dishes she makes for herself after school (baked potatoes and pasta and vegetables with basil and olive oil), I’ve done very little to prepare my almost 15-year-old to cook on her own. I’ve always been a big proponent of letting kids help with the cooking, and I found early on that E would often be more eager to eat vegetables if she’d had a hand in making them.

January 25, 2012 Porcini Crusted Tofu With Shallot Gravy by IsaChandra Serves 4 Active Time: 30 minutes (not including marinating and tofu pressing which is 2 hours) It’s every girl’s worst nightmare.
Just a few weeks shy of my 39th birthday, trying to drift off to sleep, I was suddenly seized by a terrifying thought. And Valentine’s Day is coming up, so maybe you wanna’ get a little fancy? Even though you might not make this recipe any day of the week (but you might), it isn’t difficult to do. I served over Scallion Mashed Potatoes and Caramelized Beets. Ok let the romance begin! 14 oz extra firm tofu, pressed (here’s how to press tofu, I wrap it in a kitchen towel, too.) For the marinade 3 tablespoons tamari (or soy sauce) 1 1/4 cups veggie broth 1/4 cup red wine vinegar 1 tablespoon olive oil For the Shallot Gravy: 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 cloves garlic, minced 2 cups shallot, thinly sliced 1/4 cup leftover porcini/breadcrumb mixture 1 3/4 cups vegetable broth 1/4 cup of the tofu marinade.
Reader (79) Velouté de Champignons aux Noisettes/Cream of Mushroom Soup with Hazelnuts. Soyons fous !
(connaisseurs de l’anglais, vous ferez le lien avec l’inscription sur ma seconde photo), un peu de champignons. Je vous l’accorde, ce n’est pas très innovant pour ne pas dire bateau, mais pour ne pas proposer de simples champignons de Paris mixés avec un trait de crème, j’ai misé sur l’ajout d’un autre aliment : la noisette. En poudre, entière et sous forme de lait végétal – j’aurais aimé me servir d’une huile à la noisette pour la cuisson des champignons, mais c’est une huile d’assaisonnement qui tolère mal la chaleur, je n’allais donc pas jouer avec le feu !
Pour ceux qui apprécient beaucoup la noisette ou ceux qui ne sont pas ultra adeptes de nos amis les champignons, il est tout à fait possible de remplacer la quantité d’eau par du lait de noisette – le velouté risque aussi d’être peut-être un peu plus épais. Let’s go nuts (these joke hardly work in French, that’s too bad!) 1 serving – 30 minutes (15mn cook + 15mn prep.)
Matériel : blender, poêle, casserole. Soul Veg's videos. Index by Label. Oh sweet chili lime! (how I love thee!) This is one of the most awesome recipes in the Vegan Yum Yum cookbook.
So awesome that even Grumpy likes it! I haven't been cooking a lot of meals lately since Grumpy's hours have been pretty late on the job. Now that I am on my 3rd week at my job, I am about tired of the "simple" lunches that I have been taking. Things like sandwiches, Soup at Hand, yogurt, crackers, etc. I decided I had to get back on track and start eating the way I prefer.....even if it does mean a little bit more work!
If you haven't had tofu, this is a great dish to make to give it a try. Sweet Chili Lime Tofufrom Vegan Yum Yum made my way (meaning some adjustments in ingredients!)
