Kansas Kitchen - Imagic Plant-Based Taco Crumbles - Flavored, Textured Vegetable Protein 


The first time I heard of soy protein was as a kid. My father attended a marriage and told about this mock meat which wasnt meat.

Recently my daughter wanted me to soak some of the soy chunks. She had a plan, I wasnt privy to yet. This was after I told her that I was cooking noodles.

She was going to make something she loved at her friend's place. After she was done with adding the soychunks and cooking, supported with extra dash of ketchup, I realised it was supposed to be meatballs for non red meat eaters.

How do you braid recipes into your repertoire of cooking? I once saw a friend's sister make cabbage but with an important first step which is loaded with urad daal thats well sauteed. Now thats the only way I make cabbage thats mandolin cut. 

Another friends mom sent cauliflower curry as a care package during a tough time. The cauliflower curry had many other vegetables and peas added to it. A medley. With food, we are living our own history every day. Recalling how our parents and relatives cooked, long after you have eaten the dish.

Having tried this from a restaurant, I was curious about making of Palnati Kodi kura. Interesting way of cooking peanuts in excess salt so they dont get burned.

  Healthy protein cabbage After the onion gravy success, I was excited to find out who is next in the boxring. A cabbage. I have  afound a way to make my family love it - a lentil eg urad or moong (fried initially, adds crunch - learned from a friend's sister visiting then) in copious amounts and mandolin sliced cabbage I wanted to see if there was a different way to make it. I saw this split chickpea addition to it and wondered why I didnt think of it before. I know of a recipe with soaked split chickpea and onion curry (diced onions, but now I am thinking another recipe would be to give the special treatment to onions with a blend and then fried well - elevates any main ingredient even simple one like soaked split chickpea. oh no, now reimaging all the great food could have been if done well - thinking chole curry -- its like once you know a mistake and have tons and tons of papers, to go back and correct). In some months, when for religious reasons, people dont eat onion, t...
