Eggplant Parm tonight, with nondairy cheese. Roasted Leak and Potato, and a side of green beans.
That looks fantastic.
Needs moooore cheese. That eggplant needs to be drowning in it. Source: Sicily.
Which cheese did you use? The dish looks lovely.
Its topped with violife shredded cheese. For the parmiagiana I mix the bread crumbs with a dried grated dairy free parm. I will get the name brand next time I buy it. I tossed the container in the recycling in the morning so I don’t have the label handy. Its a kraft like plastic shaker container with a light blue label
Cool, thanks for sharing. We aren’t Vegan but I am always trying to expand my options. Cheese in particular has been one of the things I have not found great substitutes for.
Cheese is very tricky. Many vegan cheeses are just horrible. And they seem to have different state taste changes. I.e. Violife Smoked Provalone is bland and snaps like cheap plastic when cold. But melted it tastes great and has a perfect melted cheese texture.
We really liked the vegetarian parm block that we found but it’s still dairy based just without the rennat stuff.
I once tried to make jalapeno poppers with vegan cheddar and vegan cream cheese it dod not go well. I just ended up with a puddle of flavoring and whatever oil base they used in the bottom of my cookie sheet. Thank god I didn’t try to grill ot or it would have looked like a refinery fire.
Yes, we had one cheese like that, just turned back to coconut oil.
You would think with modern tech they could simulate a food product that ferments like real cheese
We know it’s not parmesan.
The diary free parm gets mixed with the bread crumbs when you coat and fry the eggplant. The topping is violife shredded
