All-Purpose Plant Steak
A blank slate plant steak with minimal ingredients and a flavor profile similar to unseasoned, medium-cooked beef.
Ingredients
- 1½ cups water
- ¼ tsp beetroot powder
- ½ tsp cream of tartar
- ½ tsp Vegemite (this really does make a difference, and I recommend Vegemite over Marmite in this recipe)
- 1 pinch activated charcoal (about 1/16 tsp to 1/8 tsp, optional for color)
- 2 tsp mushroom powder (white button is my favorite, shiitake and porcini also work)
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (Wizard's brand is vegan and delicious)
- ½ tsp dry mustard powder
- 4 oz soy curls (or TVP)
Instructions
- Add all ingredients except for the soy curls to a pot.
- Whisk over medium heat until vegemite is fully dissolved and liquid is near boiling.
- Fold in dry soy curls, and simmer, stirring occasionally until all liquid is absorbed/evaporated.
