Come join the Vegan Home Cooks!

Participation is really easy, just take a picture of what you cooked today and post it, no recipes needed.

Be nice and supportive, no one cares about your criticism or fixes. If it isn't nice and positive your comment will be removed


This is a public forum for a discord server of friends who are all vegans and cook at home for their families.

We are here to share some inspiration, to see what others are doing and to stay engaged in something that is both our hobby and a required task.

This forum is not a "food porn" community, a recipe book or a place to teach you how to cook. It is a place for people who already cook to meet other people like themselves and provide on topic support and conversation as much as long distance friends on the internet can do. We are doing show and tell about what we made and we don't care about its instagram worthiness.

Veganism isn’t a diet but I have to eat every day. This is for the vegan home cooks. Anything non vegan will be deleted.


Rules

1. Be Vegan.

If it is not vegan it doesn’t belong here… or anywhere.

2. Post home cooking.

No restaurant or fast food. This is what every other vegan space is about and we don’t want to promote any large or small business tyrants.

3. Join the Discord

We’re an active community of vegan home cooks that like to talk about what we are cooking today.

4. Do not make any rude comments or digs at anyone’s food, cooking style, specific diet, restrictions or technique.

While we are all cooks, we all have different requirements and we’re not asking for help, we are doing show and tell.

5. Do not use trademarked brands

Use generic names. We’re cooking with tvp not whatever business brands it and we’re not trying to turn comrades into billboards. No plant-based vegan-pandering capitalist crap like Impossible, Beyond, Dairy-company owned “vegan” cheese.

6. Do not ask for a recipe without otherwise engaging the OP (No posts that are just “recipe?”)

We are not food bloggers. Sometimes we're excited to share and will tell you the recipes we used but this isn't required. Instead try doing your own research and tell us what you learned and we can talk about it.

7. Careful with making unasked for suggestions.

Sometimes we like to hear suggestions but you should be nice about it and know the person you are making suggestions to. We are in the discord and you can get to know us that way. If you are just a visitor from the fediverse, this isn’t the place for you to start telling other people what to do.

8. Grown Ups Only.

Cooking for our kids is great, Acting like one is not. While this isn't a community for adult material we expect everyone who participates to be an adult and act like one. Please follow the Anarchists Code of Conduct. No profane usernames allowed.

I don't normally deep fry food because it's annoying, uses a lot of oil, and not very healthy, but I somehow ended up with 2 lbs of oyster mushrooms and needed something else to do with them. Holy cow was it worth it.

Found the recipe here.

Wow, looks really good, I'd eat the fuck out of that with some marinara dip

[–] Enkers 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Oooh, yeah, marinara would've been good too! I went with bbq sauce.

My initial plan was to have them in a cashew Alfredo pasta, but by the time I was done frying I was soo done with cooking for the night. xD

The upshot is I did make the Alfredo sauce already, so I can do that tomorrow.

I wonder if you could airfry them?

Although tbh sometimes you just need that wasteful oil bomb.

I've tried several times making air fried breaded mushrooms and always ended up with something pretty soggy. Nothing beats the crunch of full fat deep frying.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Maybe with crushed up corn flakes? 🤔

Dunno, I think I'll experiment with it.

[–] Birch 3 points 2 weeks ago

Good idea, let me know how it goes and if you find a good recipe

[–] Enkers 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Yeah, that's what I read as well. It's too bad too, since deep frying is such a pain.
