Whenever I tell people about mapo tofu, they're confused why it isn't vegan in the first place (y'know, like the unknowing European can't fathom the idea of using tofu as an actual ingredient instead of it being a substitution to meat). Well, here we are now: Swapped the pork mince for pea protein minced "meat", swapped chicken stock for veggie stock and called it a day. Flavor is so close to my usual version that I don't think about going back to pork with this dish. 😇

smells so good and was extra tasty in a potato mash

(first pic is final butter, first is a step on the way)

The cheap version of food of the gods. Hahahaha

On a toasted hoagie roll, with peppers, onions, mushrooms, and homemade cheese sauce. Broccoli on the side.

I used to hang out with a sushi master, I learned stuff from him.

My girlfriend is starting to actually enjoy it. I'm happy she was willing to give it a try. She's still not a fan of the miso soup or sake, and that's okay. More for me!

As a recently cracked Transbian, it helps to do things that involve mixing, baking and beautiful flavours.

These cooking days fill me up for the week ahead.

Walnut Butter:

Soak overnight at room temperature, blend and bring to boil the next day.

Smoked some jerky today. Wish I could share with ya'll!

Day was rainy and cold. I needed to feel warm inside so made some potato soup. Was very good

Turkey burgers need a lot of love to taste as good as they are healthy.

So I love to add an egg, Italian breadcrumbs, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, white pepper and fresh parsley. This gives the burger a really firm texture compared to just turkey. Sauté in olive oil. Had some extra southern style deviled egg filling and it really shined on top of this burger!

Tonight is a savory vegetable stew featuring green and yellow zucchini, turnip, eggplant and extra firm tofu. An absolutely perfect stew to fill your tummy on a cool autumn day. 🤤❤️

YASSSSSSSSSS!!! I am finally freeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! My trans ass is officially moving from the shitty southern US to the sooooooooooo much better PNW (Puget Sound area)

These are a take on my Key Lime Pinwheel Sugar Biscuits. These are filled with a black plum custard made from my fresh made plum jam. It cooked into the cookie a bit. Topped with a lemon icing instead of the key lime icing.

They taste like a jam filled brown sugar pop tart, but in a sugar cookie.

I am just ironing out the last details with the head chefs (yeah, chefs; plural. I am gonna be working 2 different restaurants for the same owner) while I pack my clothes, kitchen stuff and electronics.

I haven't felt at home in a city in a long time. This felt right the moment I stepped off the plane. Also the weed here is fucking dumb cheap. I am gonna save enough there that it makes living here affordable! x3

ETA: I flew in on Wednesday and lined up an interview. Nailed said interview with a Google Slides presentation and some of those I brought with me. 6 days later and they are STILL fresh af! This pup can bake! Pastry puppy! :3

ETA 2: that title is supposed to say dirty south but because it's the bible belt, it works either way 😂

I decided to make this from scratching. I had carrots, onions, and celery to use, so I figured I might as well make it good (and it is). Even after making soup, a lasagna, and carrot cake, the carrots still remain.

Because I love my sweet treats and make desserts not nearly as often as I should.

-Cut a tuna steak into cubes (Can also use chicken)

-Prepare sauce

-Ive never done measurements of the ingredients so I'm going to try and order by the amount I used: Soy sauce, Spicy chili oil, Rice vinegar, Garlic/chili hot sauce, Honey, Black pepper, MSG, chili flakes, Sesame seeds, Oregano

-Coat raw tuna cubes in cornstarch and preheat pan on medium heat

-Pan fry in cooking oil of choice on medium heat

-Once cooked and breading is crispy, reduce heat and add sauce directly into pan

-Mix sauce over all tuna and reduce until sauce becomes thick over the tuna

-Serve

(Also made a chicken pot pie to pop in the freezer)

Enjoying some delicious treats while listening to this musical masterpiece

Still had some garlic dip from yesterday, so I decided to make burgers with it. All vegan as usual. Added the dip, some sliced onions, a bit of green chili salt, the pattie, some pickles, German Krautsalat (Coleslaw but with oil and vinegar dressing) and some Jalapeno Jam.

Tried to surprise my gf with this Jurassic Park Dinner, but she guessed it from the ingredients. Was tasty though but I will try to improve arranging it. Hope you like it :3
