Chinese Crispy Fried Tofu
It feels like yesterday, but the memory is fresh. Eons ago, I happened to spot some "white slabs" sitting next to my all time favorite Paneer, in the aisle of the grocery store I frequented. See, I was this good girl who went shopping for my mom during the weekends, all on my own, so that my mom can relax her feet. At times I used to buy other stuff that caught my fancy apart from the list my mom provided. So on this particular day, this packet with something called as "tofu", went into my basket. Once home, my mom had a different story to tell. In fact I think I love it even more (if that's even possible!) References recipe minimally adapted from the best international recipe Basic Information Prep Time: Under 15 min Cook Time: Under 15 min Serves: 4 people Ingredients Tips 1. Method Slice the tofu into cubes/1-inch thick slabs. Important Tip: I was a little slack in doing a good job and it shows the way it fried. Make sure to blend it well. Next add the tofu cubes to this mixture.

Spinach Tofu Patties
I love vegetarian burgers because they're usually packed with lots of vegetables and other yummy ingredients, and there are so many ways to enjoy them - you can put them in between a bun and dress them up with your favourite toppings, but they are often just as good or even better on their own, without the bun! These patties definitely fit into the latter category. They are so flavourful that I preferred to just eat them with a fork rather than hiding them in a bun underneath other toppings. The patties themselves are actually made with tofu, but you would probably never guess just by looking at them (and you could probably serve these to a tofu-hater without them knowing either!) They are also filled with spinach and asian flavours like sesame oil and soy sauce. Once cooked, they held their shape well (which can be a problem with other veggie burgers), but they were still soft and easily broke apart with a fork when eaten that way. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Le ragioni dei vegani
testo di Massimo Filippi Anche l’alimentazione può essere oggetto di considerazioni morali? Perché la filosofia non se ne è mai occupata? Quali sono gli argomenti a favore del rifiuto della carne? I sistemi filosofici sembrano considerare l’atto del mangiare come fondamentalmente extra-morale. Antipasto Negli ultimi anni, però, altri soggetti si sono affacciati sulla scena, reclamando l’accesso al club esclusivo della morale: gli altri animali. Tagliere Nessuna specie animale in nessuna fase della sua vita sfugge al nostro tagliere: l’uomo è un animale onnivoro nel senso più completo del termine. Thomas Nagel ci ha invitato a immaginare che cosa si provi a essere un pipistrello; forse, sarebbe opportuno arricchire questo esperimento mentale chiedendosi che effetto farebbe essere una gallina ovaiola, una mucca da latte, un uccello da richiamo, un maiale d’allevamento intensivo e, più in generale, un cosiddetto animale da reddito. Primi Il giardino dell’Eden è esistito.
Vegetable Lasagna Cupcakes
How about a couple of cupcakes for dinner? I haven’t made lasagna in ages but after seeing the oh-so-cute Petite Lasagnas at Can You Stay For Dinner?, I just had to make a vegan version. I didn’t bother to replace the meat in the sauce called for in the original recipe, I just went with vegetables – fresh shiitake mushrooms and baby zucchini from the farmers market. Once cool enough to handle, you can actually pick one up and eat it without a fork. I only wish the Daiya cheese was a little more melted (I would have left it in the oven for a bit longer but the tips of the wontons were getting to be pretty brown and I have a very touchy smoke detector). Vegetable Lasagna CupcakesMakes 12 24 wonton wrappers 1 cup pasta sauce or spaghetti sauce 1/4 cup of your favorite cheese Vegetable Filling 2 ounces shiitake mushrooms, washed and thinly sliced 2-3 baby zucchini, peeled, washed and sliced crosswise 1 garlic clove, minced 1 teaspoon vegetable oil Next, make the tofu ricotta.
