So, I apparently don't follow recipes as well as I should. I left out the bread crumbs in the chickpea cutlets I made so I didn't bother with a pic today, cuz they didn't look right. My batts were dead on my camera yesterday anyway. The beans were good though, and better the second day.
I today also made Seitan O' Greatness, plus a "salami" flavored vers of said seitan. I also made a white bean pate that is waterier then I like my bean spreads (Bryanna's white bean pate), so I may mix half of it back into the blender and more white beans, so I can thicken it up. I even used almost half of the water listed for blending. The onions added a LOT of water obviously. Either way, it will run off bread and I don't like that about a bean spread.
Also made today sweet and sour coleslaw. I always buy pre shredded coleslaw stuff whenever its lowered in price for quick sale because I love coleslaw, but hate cutting up cabbage (though I do sometimes).
The dressing was good:
1 TBS oil
3-4 TBS vinegar
1 tsp relish
1 tsp mustard (I used horseradish mustard)
3 tsp sugar
1 tsp horseradish
1 tsp salt
some pepper
I used this much on about 4 fluffy cups of coleslaw, though it was maybe a little too little dressing. Coulda used more sugar for the sweet too.
No sit down dinner today, just picked at the stuff I made, so I didn't really take any pictures, maybe I'll take a shot at the cooled seitan.
bah boring indeed. Can't wait for the seitan to cool!
