Mushroom Stock
Recipe by:
wsf
OK, now when I am transforming a meat dish into vegetarian, there are certain shortcuts I know: I can use quorn or TVP for chicken, and vegetable stock for chicken stock. And, I can use organic mushrooms in place of stewing beef. But... for a long time, I didn't have a replacement for beef stock. Sure, I could use vegetable stock, but it wasn't earthy enough, it was too light. So, I invented the stock below for a rich earthy stock for vegan use!

Carrageen Pudding
Recipe by:
wsf
This is a pudding made from: Seaweed! The seaweed has no flavour, but does make an amazing thickener. Because of this, it is an excellent vegetarian custard. By using Soy Milk, it can also be turned into a brilliant vegan custard. Your guests will never know that they are having seaweed for dessert. Carrageen can be found or ordered in the U.S. through healthfood shops, where it is sometimes called carrageenan.
