I’m sorry but tofu is not cheese nor does it taste anything like it, vegan cookbooks need to be better. Stop massacring time honored dishes with uncreative replacement ingredients (hexbear.net)

You can’t just replace paneer with tofu and call a dish palak paneer you twat. Like replacing black beans with lentils and calling it black bean soup IT’S NOT THE SAME AND DOESN’T TASTE THE SAME.

I swear half the reason people hate veganism is the fucking half assed garbage cooking content put out by vegan incluencers.

‘Hi today I’m going to make a yummy vegan grilled cheese sandwich but instead of cheese I’m GOING TO USE FUCKING ELMER’S GLUE’ And This doesn’t just go for cheese

What we did was a mix of apple cider vinegar, salt and water, I cook by vibe and it was years ago so I don't have precise measurements but you're looking for about 1/3 vinegar to 2/3 water and cause it's feta you wanna salt it like the dead sea or at least the ocean, if you wanna be sure, add the salt water to the vinegar after it basically tastes like sea water. I tossed it in pepper and a little bit of oregano and arame (dried seaweed), a little bit of paprika can also be nice but that's getting off the strictly feta lane.
