BBQ tvp and jackfruit supreme style pizza. It’s essentially junkfood 'cause I splurged for that hydrogenated coconut oil and tapico “cheese” but hey, sometimes you need to fill the hole inside.

BBQ mix is tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, ricewine vinegar, molasses, tamarind, coriander seeds, mustard, cumin, smoked paprika, onion powdepowde from memory. Dough is Ken’s same day straight dough.

Really good looking crust there! Home oven? Did you use any tricks or gear to get such a nice rise and color? (Pizza stone/steel, broiler, etc?)

Home oven. A pretty decent neff one though that claims to hit 275 C

Pizza stone preheat for ~40 minutes. Switch to the grill on max for ~10 minutes while assembling the pizza the back to normal while it’s on. The grill helps get the stone nice and fucked up.

Unfortunately the stone is glazed (wtf?) so the base isn’t as hard as it could be if it was pulling moisture from the bottom. But hey, hand me downs are hand me downs.

Oh hell yeah. You got all the trickery going on there. It’s a rabbit hole I fell down years ago, so I wanted to see if you had done the same.

Eventually I caved and got a propane Ooni, but after going vegan I make far more naan and pita than I do pizza with it!

Either way, beautiful pizza. I’ve found the liquid mozz miyoko’s vegan cheese to be the best approximation for craving that “pizza” shaped hole.

I really just read this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13414492-flour-water-salt-yeast and he has a section on pizza. If you’re into yeast related activities I’d recommend that book. Very readable and he has a nice unpretentious attitude towards just enjoying baking.

I’m in australia so I don’t get a lot of vegan products that are present in europe or the dark empire. I sort of hate the coconut fat based cheeses we get though, fermenting my own is a bit high effort with a high failure rate alas. I’ve been meaning to play around with like my usual cashew/nooch/msg/salt/vinegar blend but adding some stuff like tapioca starch or carogena or whatever to make more of a goop.

Usually when I make pizza I skip cheese though, a winner is sweet potato, pomegranite molasses, and dandelion greens. Or hummus, mediterranean summer veg, and zaatar.

The advantage of working with a slack ~70% hydration dough is you can sort of press the ingredients into it to make them stay put.


When making naan what do you sub for yoghurt? we get sad pathetic coconut fat ‘yoghurts’ here. I’ve fermented my own from soy milk but it tends to taste a bit tofu-y. Been meaning to try some other blends.

Vegan Home Cooks

!homecooks@vegantheoryclub.org

Create post

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.


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.
