Vegan jerky

[woof]

I'm not a vegan, but my daughter is, & she has given me among other things a small pack of vegan jerky, not tried it yet, but looking forward to trying it, if its good, it could make an interesting adition to bushy cooking.

Anyone else tried it ?

Never even heard of it before. Let us know what it's like. I'm veggie, not vegan, and this sounds interesting.

Any idea where she got it?

Hi Woof,

Our local decidious trees make tonnes of vegan jerky strips every autumn. Doesn't seem very popular though as folk just rake them into piles and then hedgehogs sleep in it.

Hope she enjoys it.

Merry Christmas Goatboy.

We used to get the vege one from Holland and Barret, it was quite spicy and delicious, came in an orange, yellow and red package if I remember, sadly the outlet no longer stocks it.

interesting - is it protein?

 

[Toddy]

Yeah, calcium rich too It's a goodie for vegetarians/vegans.
If you make your own tofu you can flavour it as you make it, drain it really well, slice it up and dry it and it works really well. Better if marinaded first though.

cheers,
M

how do you make your own tofu?

not jerky but soya nuts are easiest way or cooking soya beans I know. Simply soak over night then bake on oiled tray for 30 ish minutes. Really good camp food.

Well i ate it while watching the lord of the rings last night, I loved it, my daughter was'nt so keen, my son hated it, but then he thinks baked beans are spicy !, also hated by my sister in law, but a big thumbs up from me.

Its called Suzies vegan jerky, & is made by martinsjerkedmeats.com

It contains tofu, paprika, chillies, pepper, soy sauce garlic & ginger.
