What is the vegan substitute for Cottage Cheese (Paneer)?

0
Fried tofu in bowl, Vegetarian food

The most common substitute for paneer is tofu. The soft white blocks of tofu are made from ground soybeans and water. The process of making tofu involves mixing soy milk with coagulant, then pressing it into solid form. Tofu can be used in a variety of ways, including in soups and salads, as well as stir-fries and curries.

Tofu, also known as bean curd in English, is a food prepared by coagulating soy milk and then pressing the resulting curds into solid white blocks of varying softness. It can be silken, soft, firm, extra firm or super firm.

Silken Tofu

This is the most common type of tofu found in supermarkets. It is made from soymilk that has been heated until denatured, causing it to lose its natural water content and become a smooth paste or liquid. The liquid portion is then strained off leaving behind a solid block of tofu which can be used as a meat substitute in recipes.

Soft Tofu

Soft tofu has a denser texture than its counterpart silken tofu but still maintains some degree of elasticity that allows it to be stretched out like jelly when squeezed gently between your fingers. Unlike other types of tofu which can be kept for several days in the refrigerator without losing any moisture content, soft tofu will begin to lose its shape and firmness over time because it has less protein in it than most other varieties do (see below).

In addition to its nutritional properties as a complete protein source (containing all essential amino acids), tofu is high in calcium and potassium. It has been shown to reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease. Tofu is also considered a good source of vitamin B12 (one serving provides 20 percent of the Daily Value for this nutrient), thiamine (20 percent DV for this nutrient) and riboflavin (20 percent DV for this nutrient).

Tofu is made from soybeans which can be sprouted or not depending on how you choose to prepare them. The soybean protein fraction (protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score) is high in both free form and peptide chains which makes it an excellent meat substitute if cooked properly. You can find thousands of recipes online with tofu as the main ingredient including salad dressings, soups, stews, stir fry, desserts and more.

Tofu originated in China where it was referred to as bean curd (毛豆腐). The soybeans used to make tofu are ground into a paste, fermented and steamed. The curd is then pressed and dried into blocks. Soy milk may also be used in place of water for the coagulation process. Tofu is an excellent source of protein, vitamin B12 and various minerals such as iron and calcium.

In Taiwan and Mainland China, tofu is called “bean curd” (毛豆腐) or “tofu Yuba” (除豆乳), which literally means “without soybean”. Both terms are used interchangeably in English language texts despite their distinct meanings: “bean curd” refers only to the shape of the block of pressed tofu while “tofu Yuba” refers only to its texture.

Whether you love tofu or Indian paneer, you can order dishes made from tofu or paneer from your favourite restaurants on the All Eat platform. Discover thousands Chinese and Indian restaurants and save up to 30% on takeaways when you order using the All Eat app.

What Is Chinese Mid-Autumn Moon Festival?

0

The Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhongqiu Jie (中秋节) in Chinese, also known as the Mooncake Festival or Moon Festival, is one of China’s biggest holidays. The festival is a joyous celebration with family reunions, mooncakes, parades, and lanterns.

In 2022, Mid-Autumn Festival falls on September 10th (Saturday).

The festival falls in the middle of the autumnal equinox and celebrates the harvest moon with lanterns and red paper lanterns. It is also called Lantern Festival because people decorate their homes with beautiful lanterns made out of paper or bamboo sticks covered with colourful paper strips or cloth.

The holiday was first celebrated in China thousands of years ago. It originated from the legend that there were two lovers who were separated by an obstruction in a river. They promised each other that if they could pass over it together they would meet again at sunset on this day every year. The lovers were successful but one of them died before reaching his loved one and he took her place across the river by drowning himself instead of waiting for her arrival to complete their promise as promised.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is the largest traditional festival in China. It is celebrated annually on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar (usually in September).

The festival falls on the full moon of the 8th month, when it is believed that the moon returns to a full phase, and also occurs on the day when the sun enters its descent to enter into its winter quarters. This day is also known as Zhongqiu Jie or Full Moon Festival.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of China’s biggest holidays. The festival is a joyous celebration with family reunions, mooncakes, parades, and lanterns. In 2022, Mid-Autumn Festival falls on September 10th (Saturday).

Mid-Autumn Festival is a Chinese harvest festival that celebrates the end of summer, the harvest and the moon. It is one of the most important festivals in China.

This year, Mid-Autumn Festival falls on September 10th (Saturday). This year’s theme is “Celebrate the Moon and Return to Purity”.

The festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month in the lunar calendar. It is also known as “Mooncake Festival” or “Moon Festival”.

Mid-Autumn Festival (中秋节) is a traditional holiday in China which originated from Emperor Shen Nung who said: “When autumn comes, people should eat mooncakes.” In 2018, this festival will be held on September 10th (Saturday).

The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the biggest holidays in China. It falls on the first full moon after the autumnal equinox and marks the end of summer.

The festival originated from a legend about a Chinese princess who was turned into a goddess after her death. She was buried with a piece of lotus root in her mouth, which turned into a moonflower when it bloomed at night. This flower symbolizes peace and tranquillity, and the festival celebrates the reunions of families, friends, and loved ones.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is also called Mooncake Festival or Moon Festival because it’s traditionally celebrated with mooncakes, which are made out of glutinous rice flour, egg whites, sugar, nuts, beans and other ingredients. The cakes have been used for centuries as gifts for family members during this holiday season.

MUSHROOM FRIED RICE

Sausage fried rice with tomatoes Carrots and shiitake mushrooms on the plate.

Mushroom fried rice is a popular Chinese delicacy which tastes delicious! In fact, when I brought up this recipe, my colleague Jasmine asked, “Is that a thing?” I’m here to tell you, yes, it is “a thing!”

Mushroom Fried Rice (with step-by-step photos)

This is the perfect vegetarian main dish with all the flavours of Chinese takeout without the MSG or heavy sauces.

Mushroom fried rice is one of those dishes that I’ve always wanted to try, but I never really got around to it. It seemed so simple and kind of boring, but you know what? This recipe is DELICIOUS! The mushrooms are sautéed in a little bit of butter and soy sauce then tossed with some rice, egg, scallions, peas and bell pepper. Then everything gets mixed together and baked until the eggs are done.

It’s easy to make too! If you have leftover rice from another meal, this is the perfect recipe for using it up. You can also use chicken or pork instead of beef if you prefer meatless options. And if you have leftover vegetables from another recipe (like book choy), feel free to add more of those as well!

Mushroom fried rice is a great way to use up leftover vegetables and mushrooms, which are often overlooked in other recipes. It’s also a great way to use up some of your favourite vegetables or mushrooms, if you happen to have some extra in the fridge. And it’s quick enough that you can make it on a weeknight!

You can use any type of mushroom in this recipe, but shiitake mushrooms work especially well because they have such a meaty texture. You could also use portobellos or cremini mushrooms if you don’t have shiitakes on hand.

Mushroom fried rice is a convenient way to make a delicious dish. It’s easy, healthy, and can be made with whatever mushrooms you have on hand.

If you like spicy food, add some sriracha sauce or chili oil to your bowl. If you prefer a milder flavor, use soy sauce instead of the chili oil.

This recipe also works well with other types of mushrooms (porcini mushrooms, for example), or even just one type of mushroom such as white button mushrooms or cremini mushrooms.

Lanterns are lit in a large crowd, filling the sky with light festival earning its name as the festival of Lanterns! Chinese lanterns are lit in abundance, lighting up the dark night skies in honor and respect of those who have passed away, symbolizing the light carried on after death in Chinese mythology and religions.

(tangyuan) the sweet, glutinous rice balls are eaten in abundance through the Chinese new year and doesn’t stop there! During the Lantern Festival, families will make hundreds of these Rice balls so that they can be eaten throughout the festivals. These tasty, sweet balls of Rice flour filled with a variety of sweet centers like peanut butter or any other sweet treat are thought to carry good wishes of togetherness, family unity and an all round sweet life!

The 2,000 year old + Chinese Dim Sum!

0

Traditional Chinese cooking is undeniably one of the most culinary creative cuisines you can find, with a humongous variety of flavours both sweet and savoury, creating extravagant, beautiful culinary masterpieces that follow the same traditional methods that’s seen next to no changes across the 1000s of years of history (must be a sign of something great!!)

However there is one ultimate, and arguably the most important & favourite staple food in Chinese cuisine that I dare not forget to mention: the Chinese Dim Sum. 

Dim Sum dumplings come in the form of beautifully prepared bite size parcels filled with delicious fillings with more mouth-watering variations you could even think of. If you haven’t heard of the Char Siu Bao (Steam Roast BBQ Pork Buns) then I’m here to tell you it’s not too late!

Tons of Chinese takeaway in London and the UK serve the delicious Dim Sum! It’s a must-try! There are hundreds of types of Dim Sum for you to try! One of the most famous is Har Gau, a shrimp-stuffed-dumpling made of a combination of wheat and tapioca starches creating the perfect translucent and chewy dough-like shell which is then stuffed with exquisite tasty cooked Shrimp or King Prawn! Delightful! 

Dim Sum is eaten in abundance & whether you’re alone or enjoying a portion of Dim Sum with your family or friends no one can pass judgement on you eating Dim Sum by the truck load! (because hey, they are tiny after all!) Dim Sum translates in English to ‘touch the heart’ radiating the love for Dim Sum even more!

Greatly celebrated and eaten in China for centuries, Dim Sum has made its way to western culture and cuisines where the genius behind this culinary masterpiece has been recognized, embraced and grown hugely popular in restaurants all round the UK especially. At All Eat we’ve put together a list of Chinese restaurants with options of delicious Dim Sum available for delivery or collection! You can find that list below!
