(Part 2) Best products from r/VegRecipes

I got this book and it's amazing. Once you make a few recipes it's easy to start experimenting a bit and coming up with your own creations.

Silk Road Cooking is a great one, and covers every area you listed. I sold it a while back, but do remember the recipes are awesome and authentic. You will need access to some foreign groceries for ingredients.

Holy crap. Ordering this bouillon now :)

I make a something kinda similar - sliced mushrooms, shredded carrots, sliced cabbage, bean sprouts, tofu, ramen noodles, Knorr chicken broth, chili garlic paste (cause spicy), a dash of fish sauce, cilantro, lemongrass paste, onions, lime, etc. You might like it if you liked the soup above! Secret is to press the tofu before you cube it, helps it absorb all that tangy salty soup flavor :P

We love this BTB veggie chicken base. It's much cheaper if you can find a local store that sells it. I think we might pay about six bucks for it, and it lasts a good while. It's something like a teaspoon per cup of stock. I haven't done the math on cost of BTB v. prepared veggie stock, but it seems similar.

We also like this Not Chick'n bouillon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00113ZTVK?pc_redir=1408689362&robot_redir=1 Between assorted flavors of BTB (veggie "chicken" and veggie) and these cubes ("chicken" and "beef"), we've stopped using cans or cartons of stock entirely, which used to go bad in our pantry.

I think we might prefer the BTB, but they're both good. Either way, I'd try checking out your local health food stores. The prices are sometimes shockingly better.

I'm a big fan of this book, yes it does have a lot of soups but it also has a great variety

I purchased THIS juicer for $99. That was my budget and I think it's quality for the price. If you can spare more I'd go with the same brand but a model higher that can hold more pulp. For inspiration and more info I recommend the documentary Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, which is on Netflix Instantly. I saw it due to it being recommended here on Reddit so much. I also recommend you youtube "Dave the Raw Food Trucker" who beat cancer and diabetes and extreme obesity. He recently survived a heart attack. Very inspiring.

Charmaine Solomon does a good vegetarian cookbook which has some western dishes but mainly Asian ones. She was born in Sri Lanka and her recipes from there are amazing - http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Vegetarian-Cookbook-Charmaine-Solomon/dp/1580084273/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1369717300&sr=8-1&keywords=charmaine+solomon+vegetarian

Make sure to take B12 supplements, your brain literally does not function correctly without it. It's possible to get enough from diet alone but it's pretty difficult. Don't mess around with your brain, a supplement is 4 cents a day. Honestly even meat eaters should do it.

Thank you! Any type of steamer could work, you just want to make sure it has a (substantially) flat base so that you can space the dumplings from each other, so they don't stick together. Something like this might work - you might just need to steam them in batches because the flat part is relatively small.

Here are some of my more flavorful recipes. I recommend looking at some Indian or Middle Eastern cook books. There you will find flavorful and spicy dishes. I cook with the "Indian Slow Cooker" cookbook and I have to tone down the spiciness quite a bit!! I recommend hitting a Middle Eastern grocery store for cheap spices in bulk!

• Spicy Pasta Povencal
  
• Huevos Rancheros
  
• Aloo Phujia
  
• Three Pepper Pasta Salad
  
• Baked Eggs
  
• Spicy Black Bean and Rice Burrito
  
• Sweet Potato Burrito

What recipe are you following? the one from Vegan with a Vengeance is good and easy.

Are you trying to wash out the gluten yourself and then make seitan from that? I always just purchase Vital Wheat Gluten and use that to make seitan.

I do have a book with instructions on that at home that I can check later tonight.

Oooh! I have this that I use quite frequently, and I love how simple everything is. Vegetarian Dishes from Across the Middle East by Arto der Haroutunian.

Edit: Title of book.

i feel like i’m inviting nothing but trouble by wading in on this, but

an equivalent product on amazon that can be at your house within 48 hours, and less than 24 if you live in or around a city

also, this kind of thing is available by the hundreds at most east asian style
markets.

Lord Krishna's Cuisine: The Art of Indian Vegetarian Cooking is on my shelf. Good recipes & very comprehensive.

Veggiestan! I've cooked many things from this book. Really good!!

Anything by Robin Robertson. Her recipes are fantastic.

Curried Carrot Soup With Cilantro-Pistachio Cream from A Beautiful Bowl of Soup. Substitute oil for butter to make it vegan

I will search. If I only remembered. I would have said. Maybe the one with the characters Beet Bowl and Stick..

edit- gotcha. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0553377884/ref=redir_mdp_mobile

It is mentioned under "Description" on the page so this is The One. Title is Skinny Legs and All.
His description of the parallel mind process of being an artist is right-on amazing.

That's what I use, it's delicious. You could also just use vegetable broth which is much cheaper.
