If you want to double the recipe, keep in mind that the baking powder to flour ratio is 5-6.25 g (1 tsp to 1 1/4 tsp) baking powder for every 125 g (1 cup) of flour.

If you buy whole wheat flour from the store keep in mind that it will oxidize quicker than white flour because whole wheat flours still have the bran and germ.<p><b>All-purpose flour</b>. If you're not comfortable using whole wheat flours, it's possible to use all-purpose flour but when mixing in the liquids be careful not to overmix. Mixing helps develop elastic gluten to help pancakes rise, but when baking soda or baking powder is used for leavening overmixing makes the gluten so thick that air bubbles can't expand, resulting in a tough chewy pancake. If you are new to using whole wheat flour work your way up slowly, gradually replacing more and more of the all-purpose flour with whole grain flour.</p><p><img src='../media/recipes/whole_wheat_pancakes2.jpg'/> The above photo shows pancakes made with 50% all-purpose flour and 50% whole wheat. </p><p><b>Orange juice</b>.

It's possible to use sourdough discard to make pancakes (no need to let it rest overnight), but be sure to add baking powder and baking soda to help it rise, the discard won't provide much leavening but helps to use it up while providing flavor.</p></div><p><a href='https://grimgrains.com/site/whole_wheat_pancakes.html'>Continue reading</a></p>]]> </description> </item> </channel></rss> \ No newline at end of filediff --git a/site/balsamic_banana_ice_cream.html b/site/balsamic_banana_ice_cream.html@@ -1 +1 @@ -<!DOCTYPE html><html lang='en'><head><meta charset='utf-8'><meta name='description' content='Grim Grains is an illustrated food blog, it features plant-based (vegan) recipes.'><meta name='viewport' content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0'><meta name='twitter:card' content='summary'><meta name='twitter:site' content='@hundredrabbits'><meta name='twitter:title' content='Grimgrains'><meta name='twitter:description' content='An illustrated food blog.'><meta name='twitter:creator' content='@hundredrabbits'><meta name='twitter:image' content='https://grimgrains.com/media/services/icon.jpg'><meta property='og:title' content='Grimgrains'><meta property='og:type' content='article'><meta property='og:url' content='http://grimgrains.com/'><meta property='og:image' content='https://grimgrains.com/media/services/icon.jpg'><meta property='og:description' content='An illustrated food blog.'><meta property='og:site_name' content='Grimgrains'><link rel='icon' type='image/x-icon' href='../media/services/favicon.ico'><link rel='icon' type='image/png' href='../media/services/icon.jpg'><link rel='apple-touch-icon' href='../media/services/apple-touch-icon.png' /><title>GrimGrains — balsamic banana ice cream</title><link rel='alternate' type='application/rss+xml' title='RSS Feed' href='../links/rss.xml' /><link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='../links/main.css'></head><body class='recipe'><header><a id='logo' href='home.html'><img src='../media/interface/logo.png' alt='Grimgrains'></a></header><nav><ul><li class='home'><a href='home.html'>Home</a></li><li class='about'><a href='about.html'>About</a></li><li class='tools'><a href='tools.html'>Tools</a></li><li class='nutrition'><a href='nutrition.html'>Nutrition</a></li><li class='sprouting'><a href='sprouting.html'>Sprouting</a></li><li class='lactofermentation'><a href='lactofermentation.html'>Lacto-fermentation</a></li><li class='right'><a href='https://grimgrains.com/links/rss.xml'>RSS feed</a> | <a href='https://merveilles.town/@rek' target='_blank'>Mastodon</a></li></ul></nav><main class='recipe'><h1>balsamic banana ice cream</h1><h2>2 servings — 120 minutes</h2><img src='../media/recipes/balsamic_banana_ice_cream.jpg'/><div class='col2'><p>Banana ice cream is a simple alternative to dairy or coconut based desserts.

Leaving enough space between each 'mound' is necessary, as another sheet of dough is laid overtop and that the space ensures that both sheets will stick together.</p></div><dl class='ingredients'><h3>filling</h3><dt><a href='chickpea_flour.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/chickpea_flour.png'/><b>chickpea flour</b></a><u>15 g</u></dt><dt><a href='nutritional_yeast.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/nutritional_yeast.png'/><b>nutritional yeast</b></a><u>15 g</u></dt><dt><a href='arrowroot_starch.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/arrowroot_starch.png'/><b>arrowroot starch</b></a><u>22 g</u></dt><dt><a href='garlic_powder.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/garlic_powder.png'/><b>garlic powder</b></a><u>1.25 g</u></dt><dt><a href='onion_powder.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/onion_powder.png'/><b>onion powder</b></a><u>1.25 g</u></dt><dt><a href='chili_pepper_flakes.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/chili_pepper_flakes.png'/><b>chili pepper flakes</b></a><u>1.25 g</u></dt><dt><a href='spinach.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/spinach.png'/><b>spinach</b></a><u>20 g</u></dt><dt><a href='lemon_juice.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/lemon_juice.png'/><b>lemon juice</b></a><u>5 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='apple_cider_vinegar.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/apple_cider_vinegar.png'/><b>apple cider vinegar</b></a><u>2.5 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='soy_milk.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/soy_milk.png'/><b>soy milk</b></a><u>180 ml</u></dt></dl><ul class='instructions'><li>For the filling, mix all of the dry ingredients into a bowl, then add all the wet ones (including the chopped <a href='spinach.html'>spinach</a>) and stir well until evenly mixed.</li><li>Heat a pan at medium heat, pour the filling into it.

In the interest of posting absolute basic recipes though, we felt it deserved to be written down, especially because cookie chemistry is difficult. Slight differences in moisture content, altitude, fat content and sugar content can alter the look and texture of a cookie. There are reasons for the quantities and choice of each ingredient, all interact with each other to give cookies their sweet and soft texture.</p><p>This recipe is a good base. Substitutions are possible, but changing ingredients—depending on the ingredient—can mess up your recipe. In our suggestions we give examples of good substitutions, and how to modify the recipe to get a good result.<b class='head'>Substitutions</b> <b>Flour:</b> If you choose to use spelt flour, a more nutritious alternative, add 5 ml (5 ml) of baking powder to help it rise.</p><p><b>Fat:</b> The fat in cookies is a big part of their structure. We've added vegan butter(or margarine) as it behaves like actual butter, it helps create baked goods that are more tender by shortening gluten strands. When fat coats flour, it slows down the process of gluten formation creating a more tender product <a href='https://bakerbettie.com/function-of-butter-in-baking/#The_Function_of_Butter_in_Baking'>ref</a>. To make your own vegan butter, look for the recipe in <b>The Homemade Vegan Pantry by Miyoko Schinner</b>.</p><p><b>Sugar:</b> Sugar is important in cookies, it helps with the flavor, color and texture. The oven temperature causes the sugar to react with the proteins, this is what gives baked goods their brown color. Natural brown sugar is important in this recipe, as it adds moisture to the dough. If you use 100% granulated white sugar the cookie won't spread as well, not unless you add more moisture.</p><p><b>Add-ins:</b> If you have a sensitivity to caffeine use <a href='carob_chips.html'>carob chips</a> instead of chocolate chips. Switching to carob won't affect the cookies. <b class='head'>Troubleshooting</b>"I followed the recipe, but my cookies don't look the same as yours!" The quirkiness of different ovens makes it difficult to give accurate cooking times. Having a thermometer in your oven is the best way to read the temperature accurately.</p><p><b>Help! Cookie spreading too much!</b> If your cookie is spreading too much, you may have added too much sugar. Sugar is hygroscopic, it absorbs liquid but once it bakes it releases that and if there's too much, then it keeps spreading. Oven temperature is another factor. The hotter the oven, the more quickly the fat melts before the cookies have time to set. Depending on your oven, you may need to bake cookies longer but at a lower temperature.</p><p><b>Help! Cookie not spreading!</b> One of the most common reasons why cookies don't spread is because there's too much flour in the dough. Try using less, and consider increasing the commercial brown sugar by a few tablespoons. This will add slightly more moisture and help the cookies spread. Be sure you're also using room temperature ingredients, especially butter, to promote the best spread and texture.</p><p>Read more about <a href='https://www.kingarthurflour.com/blog/2016/03/14/cookie-chemistry-2'>cookie chemistry</a>.

In our suggestions we give examples of good substitutions, and how to modify the recipe to get a good result.<b class='head'>Substitutions</b> <b>Flour:</b> If you choose to use spelt flour, a more nutritious alternative, add 5 ml (5 ml) of baking powder to help it rise.</p><p><b>Fat:</b> The fat in cookies is a big part of their structure. We've added vegan butter(or margarine) as it behaves like actual butter, it helps create baked goods that are more tender by shortening gluten strands. When fat coats flour, it slows down the process of gluten formation creating a more tender product <a href='https://bakerbettie.com/function-of-butter-in-baking/#The_Function_of_Butter_in_Baking'>ref</a>. To make your own vegan butter, look for the recipe in <b>The Homemade Vegan Pantry by Miyoko Schinner</b>.</p><p><b>Sugar:</b> Sugar is important in cookies, it helps with the flavor, color and texture. The oven temperature causes the sugar to react with the proteins, this is what gives baked goods their brown color. Natural brown sugar is important in this recipe, as it adds moisture to the dough. If you use 100% granulated white sugar the cookie won't spread as well, not unless you add more moisture.</p><p><b>Add-ins:</b> If you have a sensitivity to caffeine use <a href='carob_chips.html'>carob chips</a> instead of chocolate chips. Switching to carob won't affect the cookies. <b class='head'>Troubleshooting</b>"I followed the recipe, but my cookies don't look the same as yours!" The quirkiness of different ovens makes it difficult to give accurate cooking times. Having a thermometer in your oven is the best way to read the temperature accurately.</p><p><b>Help! Cookie spreading too much!</b> If your cookie is spreading too much, you may have added too much sugar. Sugar is hygroscopic, it absorbs liquid but once it bakes it releases that and if there's too much, then it keeps spreading. Oven temperature is another factor. The hotter the oven, the more quickly the fat melts before the cookies have time to set. Depending on your oven, you may need to bake cookies longer but at a lower temperature.</p><p><b>Help! Cookie not spreading!</b> One of the most common reasons why cookies don't spread is because there's too much flour in the dough. Try using less, and consider increasing the commercial brown sugar by a few tablespoons. This will add slightly more moisture and help the cookies spread. Be sure you're also using room temperature ingredients, especially butter, to promote the best spread and texture.</p><p>Read more about <a href='https://www.kingarthurflour.com/blog/2016/03/14/cookie-chemistry-2'>cookie chemistry</a>.

Despite this, it is still necessary to process the clean jars after filling them with jam.</p><p><b>Jam doneness</b><br><p> Apples normally have enough natural pectin to gel. Is my jam ready to take off the heat? There are three methods:</p><p><b>Temperature Test:</b> Take the temperature of the jelly with a candy or jelly thermometer. When done, the temperature of the jelly should be 100°C if you are at sea level. NOTE: For each 305 m of altitude above sea level, subtract 2 degrees. For instance, at 305 m of altitude, the jelly is done at 100°C; at 610 m, 102°C, etc<p><b>Spoon or Sheet Test</b>. Dip a cool metal spoon into the boiling jelly mixture and lift the spoon out of the steam so the syrup runs off the side. When the mixture first starts to boil, the drops will be light and syrupy. As the syrup continues to boil, the drops will become heavier and will drop off the spoon two at a time. When the two drops form together and sheet off the spoon, the jellying point has been reached.</p><p><b>Refrigerator/Freezer Test</b>. Pour a small amount of boiling jelly on a plate, and put it in the freezing compartment of a refrigerator for a few minutes. If the mixture gels, it should be done. During this test, the rest of the jelly mixture should be removed from the heat <a href='https://nchfp.uga.edu/how/can_07/jelly_point.html' target='_blank'>[ref]</a>.</p><p><b>Sugar.</b> Adding too little sugar may cause the jam to ferment. In this recipe, we added demerara sugar (it's what we had on hand) so this why the jam is dark.

We must have spent an hour reading through it, the recipes were fantastic, the title read "The Farm Vegetarian Cookbook". The cookbook had an entire section dedicated to cooking with corn. It's in there that we found a recipe for masa dumplings.</p><p>Masa is corn that is simmered and ground into a paste and is the base for many recipes. You can make Mexican-style tortillas with it, that, or you can use it to make dumplings! We don't have access to fresh corn, nor do we have the space or the time to make my own masa, but we used <a href='cornmeal.html'>corn meal</a> instead and it worked! The only difference is that you need to add boiling water so you can roll the mixture into balls. If you were to use masa, you wouldn't need the added moisture.</p><p>The texture of the dumplings is fun and chewy.

The only difference is that you need to add boiling water so you can roll the mixture into balls.

It is a recipe we like but that we can't prepare aboard Pino because we don't have a working oven (no way to bake the tourtière). This year, we got the idea of making Japanese-style dumplings(gyoza) but with the pot pie filling we use for tourtière. We can prepare this meal on the stovetop and it tastes amazing!</p><p>For this recipe we used pre-made dumpling wrappers, but it's possible to make the wrappers yourself: see our <a href='gyoza_wrappers.html'>gyoza wrappers recipe</a>.</p><p>The tourtière filling was based on a recipe by <a href='https://www.lacuisinedejeanphilippe.com/recipe/tourtiere-de-millet-2/' target='_blank'>Jean-Philippe</a>. A tourtière recipe that we love and make every year.</p><p><b>Cutting food small</b>. An important note for this recipe is that all vegetables need to be cut very small so they fit inside a wrapper, if cut too big you'll end up with a bunch of lumpy dumplings, or dumplings that won't close. We minced the potatoes, carrots and onions for this reason (it also means they cook down faster!).</p><p><b>Dipping sauce</b>. Typically, in Quebec, millet tourtière is served with ketchup, but we decided to make a traditional gyoza dip instead and added a hint of tomato.</p><p><b>Millet</b>. Note that I used hulled millet in this recipe, toasting the grains before boiling then enhances their flavor and makes for better texture. Millet requires a water to grain ratio of 2:1. In this recipe the millet is cooked with less liquid because it will absorb more when it is cooked again in later steps.</p></div><dl class='ingredients'><h3>filling</h3><dt><a href='olive_oil.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/olive_oil.png'/><b>olive oil</b></a><u>10 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='millet.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/millet.png'/><b>millet</b></a><u>190 g, hulled variety</u></dt><dt><a href='vegetable_bouillon.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/vegetable_bouillon.png'/><b>vegetable bouillon</b></a><u>375 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='soy_milk.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/soy_milk.png'/><b>soy milk</b></a><u>125 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='potatoes.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/potatoes.png'/><b>potatoes</b></a><u>3 medium, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='carrots.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/carrots.png'/><b>carrots</b></a><u>2, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='yellow_onion.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/yellow_onion.png'/><b>yellow onion</b></a><u>2 small, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='crimini.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/crimini.png'/><b>crimini</b></a><u>115 g, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='soy_sauce.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/soy_sauce.png'/><b>soy sauce</b></a><u>45 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='tomato_paste.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/tomato_paste.png'/><b>tomato paste</b></a><u>15 g</u></dt><dt><a href='garlic.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/garlic.png'/><b>garlic</b></a><u>3 cloves, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='natural_brown_sugar.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/natural_brown_sugar.png'/><b>natural brown sugar</b></a><u>15 g</u></dt><dt><a href='cinnamon.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/cinnamon.png'/><b>cinnamon</b></a><u>1.25 g</u></dt><dt><a href='nutritional_yeast.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/nutritional_yeast.png'/><b>nutritional yeast</b></a><u>20 g</u></dt><dt><a href='vegetable_bouillon.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/vegetable_bouillon.png'/><b>vegetable bouillon</b></a><u>125 ml</u></dt></dl><ul class='instructions'><li>Bring a pot to medium-high heat, when hot add <i>10 ml (2 tsp)</i> of <a href='a href='olive_oil.html'>olive oil</a>, along with <i>190 g (1 cup)</i> of <a href='millet.html'>dry hulled millet</a>.

It is a recipe we like but that we can't prepare aboard Pino because we don't have a working oven (no way to bake the tourtière). This year, we got the idea of making Japanese-style dumplings(gyoza) but with the pot pie filling we use for tourtière. We can prepare this meal on the stovetop and it tastes amazing!</p><p>For this recipe we used pre-made dumpling wrappers, but it's possible to make the wrappers yourself: see our <a href='gyoza_wrappers.html'>gyoza wrappers recipe</a>.</p><p>The tourtière filling was based on a recipe by <a href='https://www.lacuisinedejeanphilippe.com/recipe/tourtiere-de-millet-2/' target='_blank'>Jean-Philippe</a>. A tourtière recipe that we love and make every year.</p><p><b>Cutting food small</b>. An important note for this recipe is that all vegetables need to be cut very small so they fit inside a wrapper, if cut too big you'll end up with a bunch of lumpy dumplings, or dumplings that won't close. We minced the potatoes, carrots and onions for this reason (it also means they cook down faster!).</p><p><b>Dipping sauce</b>. Typically, in Quebec, millet tourtière is served with ketchup, but we decided to make a traditional gyoza dip instead and added a hint of tomato.</p><p><b>Millet</b>. Note that I used hulled millet in this recipe, toasting the grains before boiling then enhances their flavor and makes for better texture. Millet requires a water to grain ratio of 2:1. In this recipe the millet is cooked with less liquid because it will absorb more when it is cooked again in later steps.</p></div><dl class='ingredients'><h3>filling</h3><dt><a href='olive_oil.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/olive_oil.png'/><b>olive oil</b></a><u>10 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='millet.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/millet.png'/><b>millet</b></a><u>190 g, hulled variety</u></dt><dt><a href='vegetable_bouillon.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/vegetable_bouillon.png'/><b>vegetable bouillon</b></a><u>375 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='soy_milk.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/soy_milk.png'/><b>soy milk</b></a><u>125 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='potatoes.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/potatoes.png'/><b>potatoes</b></a><u>3 medium, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='carrots.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/carrots.png'/><b>carrots</b></a><u>2, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='yellow_onion.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/yellow_onion.png'/><b>yellow onion</b></a><u>2 small, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='crimini.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/crimini.png'/><b>crimini</b></a><u>115 g, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='soy_sauce.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/soy_sauce.png'/><b>soy sauce</b></a><u>45 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='tomato_paste.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/tomato_paste.png'/><b>tomato paste</b></a><u>15 g</u></dt><dt><a href='garlic.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/garlic.png'/><b>garlic</b></a><u>3 cloves, minced</u></dt><dt><a href='natural_brown_sugar.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/natural_brown_sugar.png'/><b>natural brown sugar</b></a><u>15 g</u></dt><dt><a href='cinnamon.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/cinnamon.png'/><b>cinnamon</b></a><u>1.25 g</u></dt><dt><a href='nutritional_yeast.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/nutritional_yeast.png'/><b>nutritional yeast</b></a><u>20 g</u></dt><dt><a href='vegetable_bouillon.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/vegetable_bouillon.png'/><b>vegetable bouillon</b></a><u>125 ml</u></dt></dl><ul class='instructions'><li>Bring a pot to medium-high heat, when hot add <i>10 ml (2 tsp)</i> of <a href='a href='olive_oil.html'>olive oil</a>, along with <i>190 g (1 cup)</i> of <a href='millet.html'>dry hulled millet</a>.

Typical okonomiyaki are made with eggs, and often include meat or fish. Making it without meat is simple enough, but without eggs? Back when we lived in Tokyo, our experience in cooking with plants was limited, but now we've been doing it long enough that we can think of alternatives with ease.</p><p>The key ingredient? <a href='chickpea_flour.html'>Chickpea flour</a>. We make chickpea pancakes, and <a href='scrambled_chickpea_flour.html'>scrambled chickpea flour</a> (resembles scrambled eggs) at home all the time. Chickpea flour is a staple on Pino, and works very well for okonomiyaki.</p><p><b>Nagaimo:</b> If you're in a place were nagaimo (or yamaimo) is available, we highly reccommend adding it to the dish. It makes a fluffier pancake. Although we've made okonomiyaki without nagaimo before, so if you can't find it know that it will work and be very delicious anyway. It imparts little flavor, all it does is add nutrition and texture. Nagaimo, unlike most potatoes, can be eaten raw. However, it is best to handle the nagaimo with gloves, or to soak the peeled tuber in a vinegar-water solution to neutralize irritant <b>oxalate crystals</b> found on their skin. Nagaimo are low-calorie, high in protein, and have potassium, zinc, vitamin C and more. The texture of grated nagaimo can be off-putting, it looks like a regular tuber when whole, but when grated it becomes slime, almost liquid. This sort of texture is well-liked in Japan and referred to as being 'neba neba' (slimy). This texture present in many other foods like okra and nattou. This texture makes it an ideal egg alternative, it can be used to make deserts when baking.</p><p><b>Aonori:</b> Aonori is another obscure ingredient, but again, it can be omitted, although it tastes really amazing with it. We made okonomiyaki without it when we were in Majuro, because it simply wasn't available, so we used finely cut nori instead. Obviously, this isn't a perfect substitution, because aonori is sweet and tastes nothing like nori. However, nori is still very delicious and pairs well enough with the okonomiyaki.</p><p><b class='head'>Okonomi sauce</b></p><p>In this recipe, we don't use true 'okonomi sauce'. Why?

It is the base of Buddhist vegetarian cooking, and has been documented in China since the 6th century. It's an ingredient that is also present in Japanese cuisine, for <b>Shojin Ryori</b> (vegetarian cooking)—an important term to remember if you don't eat meat and are traveling there. Seitan takes on a different name there, it is known as <b>Fu</b>, and can be found in two forms: raw (nama-fu) or dry-baked (yaki-fu, which looks like bread).</p><p><img src='../media/recipes/seitan_2.jpg'/></p><p>Seitan, or Fu, can be produced at home, but it's very labor intensive. Making it requires kneading wheat flour with water to rinse out the starch from the wheat, what remains is a sticky mass of pure gluten protein. If your plan is to make it from scratch, good on you, but otherwise, <a href='gluten_flour.html'>gluten flour</a> (or vital wheat gluten) is your best bet. The basic ingredients for seitan are gluten flour and water, but it's best to flavor it with other ingredients as it is rather bland on its own. The amount of liquid that you use to make your dough will also affect the chewiness of your seitan, less waters means more chewy with a harder texture, and more will make it tender.</p><p>In this recipe, we added chickpea flour for added nutrition. Wheat gluten proteins are deficient in lysine (an essential amino acid for good health), adding a lysine-rich food like chickpea flour to the mix makes up for this deficiency.</p><p>When preparing seitan, it's important to flavor both the inside and outside of the dough. Adding a variation of ingredients to the dough mix such as <a href='ginger.html'>ginger</a>, <a href='garlic.html'>garlic</a>, <a href='onion_powder.html'>onion powder</a>, <a href='tomato_sauce.html'>tomato sauce</a>, <a href='soy_sauce.html'>soy sauce</a> and so on will make it extra flavorful, the same goes for the broth.

In this recipe, we used the boiling method. Steaming requires wrapping the dough in foil or some other wrapper to help it keep its shape, then steaming it in a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water for 30 minutes or so. Baking the seitan, means flattening or stretching the dough to fit the baking dish, adding seasonings overtop, and baking it for an hour. All methods are good, but some are better for certain kinds of meals.</p></div><dl class='ingredients'><h3>seitan</h3><dt><a href='gluten_flour.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/gluten_flour.png'/><b>gluten flour</b></a><u>70 g</u></dt><dt><a href='chickpea_flour.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/chickpea_flour.png'/><b>chickpea flour</b></a><u>20 g</u></dt><dt><a href='soy_sauce.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/soy_sauce.png'/><b>soy sauce</b></a><u>15 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='water.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/water.png'/><b>water</b></a><u>80 ml</u></dt></dl><ul class='instructions'><li>In a bowl, stir <i>70 g (1/2 cup)</i> of <a href='gluten_flour.html'>gluten flour</a> with <i>20 g (1/4 cup)</i> of <a href='chickpea_flour.html'>chickpea flour</a>.</li><li>In another bowl, mix <i>80 ml</i> of <a href='water.html'>water</a> (or vegetable broth) and <i>15 ml (1 tbsp)</i> of <a href='soy_sauce.html'>soy sauce</a>.

Pick up the bag and squeeze the milk out, pressing hard with your hands.

Knead the okara in the water through the bag to extract as much of the leftover milk as possible. Then transfer the okara into another bowl and reserve (it's possible to make other recipes with it, don't toss it). Clean the nylon or cotton bag, we'll use it again later in the recipe. <img src='../media/recipes/soy_flour_tofu_1.jpg'/></li><li>Add the strained soy milk to the pot, and bring liquid to <u>medium-high heat</u>.

Turn off heat, and if tofu hasn't curdled enough, let rest for another <u>15 minutes</u>. <img src='../media/recipes/soy_flour_tofu_2.jpg'/></li><li>When all the soy milk has formed into curds and there is only clear yellow whey left, the tofu is ready to be pressed. Using a slotted spoon, pick out the curds and transfer to a nylon bag, or into a tofu mold. If using a bag, twist the top of the bag to compress the tofu.

We prefer making our own soy flour with a grain mill. It's possible to buy pre-ground flour, but make sure it isn't de-fatted.</p><p>Tofu is cheap to make. In Canada, 400g of soy beans costs about 0.35$ in bulk and makes a brick of tofu, the store bought equivalent 400g brick is 3.65$.</p><p>Making tofu from the flour is faster, there is no need to pre-soak the whole beans overnight, it also makes it easier for us to extract more milk.</p><p><b>Nigari</b> is our preferred coagulant, as it imparts less flavor than lemon juice, vinegar or epsom salt.</p><p>We got the idea to make this kind of tofu from <b>The Farm Vegetarian Cookbook</b> by Louise Hagler, and found general tofu-making tips from <b>Cooking With Tofu</b> by Yoshiko Takeuchi.</p><p>Making tofu on a boat is great, we use the hand-rail to suspend the nylon bag when pressing the milk out of the soy pulp.</p><p>It is always exciting to see the tofu curds separate from the whey.</p><p>Making tofu in a bag only is a no-fuss option. You don't need a mold to make tofu.

There's a TON of different ways to prepare them, and all of these ways are delicious. Chickpeas are delicious when baked, squished, pureed, ground and sprouted. Their versatility make our lives easier, we can eat them everyday and it doesn't ever get boring.</p><p><b>Nutrition</b>: Legumes is an important part of the diet, and one of the best plant sources of <b>lysine</b>, one of 9 essential amino acids required for good health. Protein is necessary for muscles, bones, hormones, digestive enzymes, to absorb nutrients and to rebuild cells. If you eat 1/2 cup dry beans a day, your daily protein needs are covered.</p><p>Another plus is that dry chickpeas keep a long, long time. If you keep them in air-tight containers they will last even longer, because moisture and oxygen is the enemy of all beans. Oxygen makes the bean oils rancid overtime.

Their versatility make our lives easier, we can eat them everyday and it doesn't ever get boring.</p><p><b>Nutrition</b>: Legumes is an important part of the diet, and one of the best plant sources of <b>lysine</b>, one of 9 essential amino acids required for good health.

If you eat 1/2 cup dry beans a day, your daily protein needs are covered.</p><p>Another plus is that dry chickpeas keep a long, long time.

We first learned about this kind of tofu by reading The Burmese Kitchen by Aung Thein. The process for making this kind of tofu is usually much longer, if you're interested in making it the correct way the process is described at length on <a href='https://www.netcooks.com/recipes/Salads/Burmese-Style.Tofu.html' target='_blank'>this page</a>(which was copied digitally from The Burmese Kitchen). Our recipe suggests a quick way to make chickpea tofu, which was inspired by <a href='https://www.veganricha.com/chickpea-flour-tofu/#recipe' target='_blank'>this recipe</a>. It's a great soy-free alternative, and the texture is comparable to that of soft tofu.</p><p><b>Note</b>: This recipe will use up about half of the burmese tofu, which means you'll have a whole other half to use in other meals.</p><p>We thought the chickpea tofu would be well-suited as a 'mock unagi kabayaki', and that it would look especially striking atop some black rice.</p><p>The sauce served over unagi (eel) kabayaki is sweet, with hints of caramel.

In this recipe I use chickpea flour, ground from whole dry chickpeas(garbanzo beans), besan/gram flour comes from ground brown chickpeas(sometimes peas too) and usually comes out finer, smoother when ground into flour. If using besan(gram) flour, remove 60 ml of water, or add 1/4 cup of flour. It's also possible to make chickpea tofu by soaking the beans, to blend them and to use that to make the batter(cooked, of course).</p><p><b>Thicker chickpea tofu.</b>.

We usually alternate between basmati rice and short grain white rice(sushi rice). Both work well for this recipe. Note that short grain white rice uses a water to rice ratio of 1.25:1, but preboiling rice for 5 minutes in a 4:1 water to rice ratio and then discarding the water is best for reducing potential arsenic contamination[<a href='https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048969720368728' target='_blank'>Source</a>].</p><p><b>Roux</b>. In this recipe we make a quick roux, a proper roux requires constant stirring and a longer cooking time.

If you want roux with a deeper flavor, cook it for 15-20 minutes, or until it develops a dark chocolate color(keep in mind that you have to keep stirring the whole time).

Grated apple, or pear, adds a subtly sweet tone to the dish, balancing the hot and strong spice flavors. It is possible to omit the fruit and to add a bit of sugar instead.</p><p><b>Rice</b>. We usually alternate between basmati rice and short grain white rice(sushi rice). Both work well for this recipe. Note that short grain white rice uses a water to rice ratio of 1.25:1, but preboiling rice for 5 minutes in a 4:1 water to rice ratio and then discarding the water is best for reducing potential arsenic contamination[<a href='https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048969720368728' target='_blank'>Source</a>].</p><p><b>Roux</b>. In this recipe we make a quick roux, a proper roux requires constant stirring and a longer cooking time. Keep in mind, the longer a roux is cooked the less thickening power it has, although the deeper the flavor of the roux will be (not important in this case because the roux is primarily a thickener). If you want roux with a deeper flavor, cook it for 15-20 minutes, or until it develops a dark chocolate color(keep in mind that you have to keep stirring the whole time). It's important to remember that <b>roux requires equal parts fat and flour (weight, not volume)</b>.</p><p><b>Cutting root vegetables small</b> We generally cut our root vegetables thin and small so they don't take too long to cook, it is especially important for us when relying on LPG to cook in the summer.</p></div><dl class='ingredients'><h3>vegetables</h3><dt><a href='sesame_oil.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/sesame_oil.png'/><b>sesame oil</b></a><u>A splash</u></dt><dt><a href='carrots.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/carrots.png'/><b>carrots</b></a><u>1, large</u></dt><dt><a href='yellow_onion.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/yellow_onion.png'/><b>yellow onion</b></a><u>1, small</u></dt><dt><a href='potatoes.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/potatoes.png'/><b>potatoes</b></a><u>2, small</u></dt></dl><ul class='instructions'><li>Bring a pot to medium-high heat, add a splash of vegetable oil (olive, sesame or canola) along with <i>1 large</i> <a href='carrots.html'>carrot</a> cut into slices(approx. 1 cm thick), <i>1 small diced</i> <a href='yellow_onion.html'>yellow onion</a> and <i>2 small </i> <a href='potatoes.html'>potatoes</a> cut into cubes(approx. 1.5 cm thick).

Like bread and cookies, there are several key rules to making good pancakes. In the following notes we have tried to outline these rules as clearly and as thoroughly possible.</p><p><b>Baking powder</b>. If you want to double the recipe, keep in mind that the baking powder to flour ratio is 5-6.25 g (1 tsp to 1 1/4 tsp) baking powder for every 125 g (1 cup) of flour. The leavening power of baking powder can weaken overtime. To test that the baking powder is still good, drop a teaspoonful into a cup of hot water, if bubbles are visible right away it's still good, if not, replace the baking powder.</p><p><b>Wheat Berries</b>. We have a grain mill onboard and grind our own red wheat berries to make flour. Freshly-ground flour tastes better, fresher. If you buy whole wheat flour from the store keep in mind that it will oxidize quicker than white flour because whole wheat flours still have the bran and germ.<p><b>All-purpose flour</b>. If you're not comfortable using whole wheat flours, it's possible to use all-purpose flour but when mixing in the liquids be careful not to overmix. Mixing helps develop elastic gluten to help pancakes rise, but when baking soda or baking powder is used for leavening overmixing makes the gluten so thick that air bubbles can't expand, resulting in a tough chewy pancake. If you are new to using whole wheat flour work your way up slowly, gradually replacing more and more of the all-purpose flour with whole grain flour.</p><p><img src='../media/recipes/whole_wheat_pancakes2.jpg'/> The above photo shows pancakes made with 50% all-purpose flour and 50% whole wheat. </p><p><b>Orange juice</b>. For those not used to the taste of whole wheat, replace 30-45ml (2-3 tbsp) of the liquid in the recipe with orange juice. The citrus helps to temper the flavor of whole wheat (a recommendation by P.J. Hamel of King Arthur Flour).</p><p><b>Vanilla extract</b>. While optional, vanilla extract can lend a good flavor to pancakes, see <a href='https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/blog/2019/06/25/how-to-make-vanilla-extract'>how to make your own</a>.</p><p><b>Baking powder & baking soda</b>. When a recipe contains baking powder and baking soda, the baking powder does most of the leavening. The baking soda is added to neutralize the acids in the recipe plus to add tenderness and some leavening[<a href='https://joyofbaking.com/printpages/bakingsodaprint.html' target='_blank'>Source</a>].</p><p><b>Sourdough pancakes?</b> Mix the following ingredients and let rest overnight: 240 g (1 cup) unfed <a href='sourdough_starter.html'>sourdough starter</a>, 224 g (1 cup) buttermilk(1 cup soy milk plus a curdling agent, like vinegar or lemon juice), 120 g (1 cup) whole wheat flour and 13 g (1 tbsp) sweetener.

It's possible to use sourdough discard to make pancakes (no need to let it rest overnight), but be sure to add baking powder and baking soda to help it rise, the discard won't provide much leavening but helps to use it up while providing flavor.</p></div><dl class='ingredients'><h3>pancakes</h3><dt><a href='whole_wheat_flour.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/whole_wheat_flour.png'/><b>whole wheat flour</b></a><u>125 g</u></dt><dt><a href='baking_powder.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/baking_powder.png'/><b>baking powder</b></a><u>3 g</u></dt><dt><a href='baking_soda.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/baking_soda.png'/><b>baking soda</b></a><u>1.25 g</u></dt><dt><a href='salt.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/salt.png'/><b>salt</b></a><u>1.25 g</u></dt><dt><a href='soy_milk.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/soy_milk.png'/><b>soy milk</b></a><u>250 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='vanilla_extract.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/vanilla_extract.png'/><b>vanilla extract</b></a><u>5 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='apple_cider_vinegar.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/apple_cider_vinegar.png'/><b>apple cider vinegar</b></a><u>5 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='canola_oil.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/canola_oil.png'/><b>canola oil</b></a><u>5-15 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='maple_syrup.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/maple_syrup.png'/><b>maple syrup</b></a><u>to taste</u></dt></dl><ul class='instructions'><li>Mix <i>5 ml (1 tsp)</i> of <a href='apple_cider_vinegar.html'>apple cider vinegar</a>(or lemon juice) with <i>250 ml (1 cup)</i> of <a href='soy_milk.html'>soy milk</a>, let it sit for <u>5-10 minutes</u> until it curdles.

In the interest of posting absolute basic recipes though, we felt it deserved to be written down, especially because cookie chemistry is difficult. Slight differences in moisture content, altitude, fat content and sugar content can alter the look and texture of a cookie. There are reasons for the quantities and choice of each ingredient, all interact with each other to give cookies their sweet and soft texture.</p><p>This recipe is a good base. Substitutions are possible, but changing ingredients—depending on the ingredient—can mess up your recipe. In our suggestions we give examples of good substitutions, and how to modify the recipe to get a good result.<b class='head'>Substitutions</b> <b>Flour:</b> If you choose to use spelt flour, a more nutritious alternative, add 5 ml (5 ml) of baking powder to help it rise.</p><p><b>Fat:</b> The fat in cookies is a big part of their structure. We've added vegan butter(or margarine) as it behaves like actual butter, it helps create baked goods that are more tender by shortening gluten strands. When fat coats flour, it slows down the process of gluten formation creating a more tender product <a href='https://bakerbettie.com/function-of-butter-in-baking/#The_Function_of_Butter_in_Baking'>ref</a>. To make your own vegan butter, look for the recipe in <b>The Homemade Vegan Pantry by Miyoko Schinner</b>.</p><p><b>Sugar:</b> Sugar is important in cookies, it helps with the flavor, color and texture. The oven temperature causes the sugar to react with the proteins, this is what gives baked goods their brown color. Natural brown sugar is important in this recipe, as it adds moisture to the dough. If you use 100% granulated white sugar the cookie won't spread as well, not unless you add more moisture.</p><p><b>Add-ins:</b> If you have a sensitivity to caffeine use <a href='carob_chips.html'>carob chips</a> instead of chocolate chips. Switching to carob won't affect the cookies. <b class='head'>Troubleshooting</b>\"I followed the recipe, but my cookies don't look the same as yours!\" The quirkiness of different ovens makes it difficult to give accurate cooking times. Having a thermometer in your oven is the best way to read the temperature accurately.</p><p><b>Help! Cookie spreading too much!</b> If your cookie is spreading too much, you may have added too much sugar. Sugar is hygroscopic, it absorbs liquid but once it bakes it releases that and if there's too much, then it keeps spreading. Oven temperature is another factor. The hotter the oven, the more quickly the fat melts before the cookies have time to set. Depending on your oven, you may need to bake cookies longer but at a lower temperature.</p><p><b>Help! Cookie not spreading!</b> One of the most common reasons why cookies don't spread is because there's too much flour in the dough. Try using less, and consider increasing the commercial brown sugar by a few tablespoons. This will add slightly more moisture and help the cookies spread.

In the interest of posting absolute basic recipes though, we felt it deserved to be written down, especially because cookie chemistry is difficult. Slight differences in moisture content, altitude, fat content and sugar content can alter the look and texture of a cookie. There are reasons for the quantities and choice of each ingredient, all interact with each other to give cookies their sweet and soft texture.</p><p>This recipe is a good base. Substitutions are possible, but changing ingredients—depending on the ingredient—can mess up your recipe. In our suggestions we give examples of good substitutions, and how to modify the recipe to get a good result.<b class='head'>Substitutions</b> <b>Flour:</b> If you choose to use spelt flour, a more nutritious alternative, add 5 ml (5 ml) of baking powder to help it rise.</p><p><b>Fat:</b> The fat in cookies is a big part of their structure. We've added vegan butter(or margarine) as it behaves like actual butter, it helps create baked goods that are more tender by shortening gluten strands. When fat coats flour, it slows down the process of gluten formation creating a more tender product <a href='https://bakerbettie.com/function-of-butter-in-baking/#The_Function_of_Butter_in_Baking'>ref</a>. To make your own vegan butter, look for the recipe in <b>The Homemade Vegan Pantry by Miyoko Schinner</b>.</p><p><b>Sugar:</b> Sugar is important in cookies, it helps with the flavor, color and texture. The oven temperature causes the sugar to react with the proteins, this is what gives baked goods their brown color. Natural brown sugar is important in this recipe, as it adds moisture to the dough. If you use 100% granulated white sugar the cookie won't spread as well, not unless you add more moisture.</p><p><b>Add-ins:</b> If you have a sensitivity to caffeine use <a href='carob_chips.html'>carob chips</a> instead of chocolate chips. Switching to carob won't affect the cookies. <b class='head'>Troubleshooting</b>\"I followed the recipe, but my cookies don't look the same as yours!\" The quirkiness of different ovens makes it difficult to give accurate cooking times. Having a thermometer in your oven is the best way to read the temperature accurately.</p><p><b>Help! Cookie spreading too much!</b> If your cookie is spreading too much, you may have added too much sugar. Sugar is hygroscopic, it absorbs liquid but once it bakes it releases that and if there's too much, then it keeps spreading. Oven temperature is another factor. The hotter the oven, the more quickly the fat melts before the cookies have time to set. Depending on your oven, you may need to bake cookies longer but at a lower temperature.</p><p><b>Help!

Is my jam ready to take off the heat? There are three methods:</p><p><b>Temperature Test:</b> Take the temperature of the jelly with a candy or jelly thermometer. When done, the temperature of the jelly should be 100°C if you are at sea level. NOTE: For each 305 m of altitude above sea level, subtract 2 degrees. For instance, at 305 m of altitude, the jelly is done at 100°C; at 610 m, 102°C, etc<p><b>Spoon or Sheet Test</b>. Dip a cool metal spoon into the boiling jelly mixture and lift the spoon out of the steam so the syrup runs off the side. When the mixture first starts to boil, the drops will be light and syrupy. As the syrup continues to boil, the drops will become heavier and will drop off the spoon two at a time. When the two drops form together and sheet off the spoon, the jellying point has been reached.</p><p><b>Refrigerator/Freezer Test</b>. Pour a small amount of boiling jelly on a plate, and put it in the freezing compartment of a refrigerator for a few minutes. If the mixture gels, it should be done.
