Romanov Russian Black Bread - Vegetarian Recipes - Best Vegetarian Recipes

Recipe By:Alexandra Romanov

"Delicious traditional Russian black bread."

Ingredients

• 1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
• 1/3 cup dark corn syrup
• 2 (.25 ounce) envelopes active dry yeast

• 2 teaspoons salt
• 5 cups dark rye flour, or as needed

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, stir together the warm water and corn syrup. Sprinkle the yeast over the top, and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
2. Add 2 1/2 cups of the rye flour to the yeast mixture, and beat until smooth. Stir in the salt. Set bowl in a warm place, and cover with a cloth or towel. Let rise for 30 minutes.
3. Stir in more flour 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough is stiff. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead in more flour by hand as needed to form a stiff but slightly sticky dough. You may use less or more flour. Form dough into a ball. Clean the mixing bowl, and lightly grease it. Place the dough in the bowl, and cover with a towel. Place in a warm place to rise until doubled. This may take as long as 2 hours.
4. Turn the risen dough out onto a floured surface, and press out the air bubbles. Roll dough into a loaf, and place into a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan. Turn the loaf so that the seam is on the bottom. Cover the pan with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
5. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove plastic wrap from loaf pan.
6. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Bread will not brown very much.

Garlic Pepper Seitan - Vegetarian Recipes - Best Vegetarian Recipes

Recipe By:Karla

"I just love seitan and there's only two other recipes for it on this site!! I thought I better add one of my recipes for others like me who love seitan and can't find any recipes for it. I use a lot of garlic, but it's not overwhelming at all. It had a very Asian smell and flavor to it which was not my initial intention, but it works great with noodles, stir fry's, over rice or with a side of mashed potatoes and green beans. Enjoy!"

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 5 cloves garlic, finely minced
• 1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
• 2 (8 ounce) packages chicken style seitan

• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• salt to taste
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons cold water

Directions

1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions and garlic, and cook, stirring until lightly browned. Increase the heat to medium, and add the green pepper and seitan to the pan, stirring to coat the seitan evenly. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 35 minutes in order for the seitan to absorb the flavors. Dissolve cornstarch in cold water, and stir into the skillet. Cook, stirring until thickened, and serve immediately.

Breaded, Fried, Softly Spiced Tofu - Vegetarian Recipes - Best Vegetarian Recipes

Recipe By:Miss Sriri

"This tofu recipe is completely gorgeous. A former roommate introduced me to some basics with tofu, and over the past few years, I've settled on this ratio of spices and other breading ingredients. The crust on the tofu sticks is tasty and the texture is really wonderful. Serve with a relish or a dip of some sort (I love this with plain yogurt mixed with eggplant brinjal). I usually make this with a cumin-scented rice dish and a garlicky broccoli side."

Ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained and pressed
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon sage
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

1. Cut pressed tofu into 1/2-inch thick slices; then cut again into 1/2-inch wide sticks. Place tofu in a bowl, and pour broth over the top. Set aside to soak.
2. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, yeast, salt, pepper, sage, and cayenne.
3. Warm oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
4. Remove tofu sticks from broth, and squeeze most (but not all) of the liquid from them. Roll sticks in breading. (You may have to roll sticks twice to end up with a fairly dry outer layer of breading.) Place tofu in hot oil; fry until crisp and browned on all sides. Add more oil if necessary.
