My favorite cookbook is called Friendly Foods, by the best vegan chef I know, Ron Picarski. I’ve sworn to cook everything in it before I die, but I’m not even halfway done. Ron turns non-vegetarian fare into “friendly” fare with style – his goal is not to imitate but to improve. One important ingredient he uses is called seitan, a great meat alternative made from the protein in flour. I’m currently obsessed with cooking, and because my zeal is an order of magnitude beyond reasonable, I attempted to make seitan from scratch.
I remember you doing that when you were 1st Married; BK (before kids)
So you had a little more time, then
Hey, Mike–what’s the yummy looking soup/stew in the last picture?
It’s an awesome Cuban Black Bean Stew that Wrenny and I made. I’ll have it posted soon! :>
Good! I’ll be waiting for the recipe with bated breath…:)
