    Who approves this garbage? Mods?

    #1885236

    Meno: why do you consider this garbage?

    OP: some add tofu.

    Why don’t you put in beyond beef sausages

    Whenever i needed to cook a vegetarian cholent, I substitute meat with a meat-flavored boulion cube made by Telma.

    okay so, so far i got prunes as potential addition (not sure how appetizing that sounds)

    Drizzle some olive oil and add a bit of liquid smoke (about 1/4 teaspoon per bag of beans) and it should taste great. Let us know if there were any leftovers.

    According to David Fishbein on Kosher (cooking website) the answer is yes. He doesn’t specify a brand or where to buy it. Remember to use it sparingly as the flavor is very condensed, otherwise you’ll ruin your food.

    Another option is to use smoked paprika. Don’t overdo this either. Hatzlacha!

    I always suspected you were gadolhadorah, now you confirmed it.

    And if you guys go for it, you can add some whole eggs to cook with your chulent for variety.

    Add some margarine (1/4 cup for 8 qt), a carrot and a sweet potato. Margarine mimics the beef fat and carrot and sweet potato replaces the beef taste. I used to make parve chullent, and it came out delicious! Hatzlacha! And Bon Appétit!

    Oh, it didn’t occur to me that this was for the 9 days.

    Disregard what I said before. Pareve cholent is an excellent way to show aveilus.

    portobellos sound geshmack. should i cut them first or bake them to draw out moisture first? or should i just throw em right in

    Fried onions and onion soup mix+chicken soup mix. Also, put in kishka.
    Just remember, making parev chulent is like simchas torah without booze. You can manage it if you need to, but never expect it to turn out the same.

    im gonna do two updates over here
    first update:
    i put up the cholent this morning/afternoon and i put in teriyaki sauch (bc we didnt have bbq) some soy sauce and brown sugar and some osem soup so that way it can get some good dark color in it. i then crushed up a bunch of garlic (significantly more than usual) and put it in there as well as all the usual stuff like paprika and ketchup and onions and barely. i just went downstairs to the kitchen and it looks surprisingly good, il let you guys know how it actually comes out in a bit.
