Wow the African restaurant sounds really unique.<BR/><BR/>Chantal, yes, I think Andre Breton is the man! ;-) Now, I have to come up with something interesting to say about him.<BR/><BR/>Village Vegan, I usually buy wheat gluten (same as gluten or vital wheat gluten or wheat gluten flour) from the bulk bins at my co-op, but you can also find it in the flour section, packaged. (E.g. Arrowhead Mills, Bob's Red Mill, etc.)<BR/><BR/>Vegyogini, I'm not too sure. I'll take a wild guess and guesstimate that 1 TB whole flax seeds = 2 tsp. ground flax seeds. If anyone knows for sure, please feel free to correct me.<BR/><BR/>For everyone thinking about making this seitan, I say, JUST DO IT! you will NOT regret it. I just had a pepperoni sandwich for lunch. mmmm.bazuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07020880461667324114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-16067368850812432362007-04-13T09:43:00.000-04:002007-04-13T09:43:00.000-04:00Mmmmm, calzone food porn!

Apparently, there's an Ethiopian dish that involves dry grinding the flax and then mixing it with water to make a butter/margarine substitute. I've tried it to mixed results (depends on how much you like the flavour of flax, I guess), but if you're looking for ways to add flax...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00900170332078414564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-70800234612472363142007-04-13T08:39:00.000-04:002007-04-13T08:39:00.000-04:00PS--I hope Daiku has a great trip!PS--I hope Daiku has a great trip!laura khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17124236356802448254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-5692288858663789992007-04-13T08:38:00.000-04:002007-04-13T08:38:00.000-04:00The pepperoni seitan sounds excellent.

You make all sorts of things that seem so new and exciting to me - and then I was so surprised to learn that you hadn't made seitan or proper flaxy eggs before. How fun! Congrats on trying something new!!<BR/><BR/>The flaxy eggs are amazing. They even get all weird and gloopy, right? I used to always make flax eggs, but I do get a bit fatigued with all the blender cleanup, so lately I've been taking the easy route and using EnerG egg replacer.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the studies!Ameyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00291071425858947632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-86373660288644250952007-04-13T02:10:00.000-04:002007-04-13T02:10:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-53760290770920439782007-04-13T01:42:00.000-04:002007-04-13T01:42:00.000-04:00You got my vote!

New Orleans i haven't been to in years... not sure what is happenin' there food-wise these days. <BR/><BR/>(I can tell you how horrified i was back when i was 11 and my family went there, some of the things i saw on the menu at restaurants there. I wasn't a vegetarian until i was 16 but i never knew people at duck, frog's legs and turtles. i was shocked and upset...! It was my first foray into foreign foods, and i'll never forget N.O. for that...)<BR/><BR/>Bijou is BEAUTIFUL. i love the expression and i laughed out loud for what you wrote about how you have the same expression sitting in front of schoolwork!! Hilarious, Bazu!!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for making it clear that i really need to go for that seitan recipe... saving money, that's always nice as well. I need to do more of that at the moment! It doesn't look that complicated, and that always stops me from making things from scratch... And if the flavour is terrific, that's the best of all.<BR/><BR/>That calzone is lovely. That's such comfort food for me, right up there w/mac 'n' "cheez."<BR/><BR/>Thank you so much for the vegan brownie recipe link! The way you write about it, it sounds truly fabulous.
