Does anybody else use dehydrated Soya Mince (T.V.P.) ?
& does anybody else get mildly annoyed at the "soya dust" that is always included with the larger mince like pieces in a packet of dehydrated Soya Mince?
I always some how feel cheated as this dust that is ultimately always mixed with the more usable mince like pieces not to put too fine a point on it, this usually equates to at least a 1/4 of weight of the Soya mince in the packet.
Oh just me then?
I was rocking one of my own resipies' today
Old Elpaso Cowboy Beanz
1} 2 small onion finely chopped, 1 level teaspoon Kucharek vegetable seasoning, fry in 1 level teaspoon rapeseed oil & a little water till soft & water is gone.
In a pot Add 1 tray cherry tomatoes peeled & chopped in ¼ s to 1 level teaspoon Kucharek vegetable seasoning, 1 packet Santa Maria seasoning, mix for tacos original (Mild), add a little water
2 bird eye chilies finely chopped add the cooked onions & 5 tablespoon Soya mince cook for 5 minutes
2} Drain & rinse 1 tin Old Elpaso black beans Allow all other ingredients to go cold & mix with the beans,
Garnish with a little grated mozzarella cheese, & serve with lettuce & cumber, in the Old Elpaso whole wheat wraps!
When I had a eureka moment...
I have the answer... put the soya mince in a "appropriately sized sieve" & sieve out the dust
& for anyone daft enough to ask :~ For example, if the particle size of a material is described as -4 +40 mesh, then 90% or more of the material will pass through a 4-mesh sieve (particles smaller than 4.76 mm) and be retained by a 40-mesh sieve (particles larger than 0.420 mm). If a material is described as -40 mesh, then 90% or more of the material will pass through a 40-mesh sieve (particles smaller than 0.420 mm).
& further more the soya dust its not even worthy of a mention on the ingredients list on packaging that the dehydrated Soya Mince comes in, cheeky twats. Being Scottish I like to get my moneys worth....
so "Dusty Protein Veggie Burgers for hungry campers" were born

1} Remove the bird eye chilly from zip lock bag & add the contents of zip lock to a bowl Crack 1 Raw egg & 1 tablespoon rapeseed oil into the bowl & mix well, next finely chop the bird eye chilly into the bowl mix again & let stand for 5 Minutes or so mixing periodically.
2} Spoon the mixture into a well rapeseed oiled frying pan shape like 1/2 wrap shaped burger, Fry & flip till cooked
Serve in a whole-wheat wrap with Mayonnaise & salad greens
