Yuba Rolls!

I finally got around to making Yuba rolls! I've had something similar before at Buddhas vegetarian restaurant. They were not actually that hard to make. I soaked Yuba in vegetable stock, and filled it with daikon, shiitake, and tofu that had been marinated with ginger, onions, soy, salt, sugar and gochujang chili paste. And I rolled them like burrito and fried until all sides were golden. I can't wait to try them at lunch tomorrow!

"It's so hot" Vegan Carrot Cake

Since it's 40 degrees with the humidity...I decided to bake. I chose the photo on the left even thought there were better ones because it seems to express the hazy Toronto heat of the past few days.

I had some beautiful dark purple and pale yellow carrots and decided to make a vegan carrot cake. With a whole handful of substitutions and omissions, I roughly followed a recipe from Group Recipes. The bones of it are located here, but I skipped the ginger and swapped the apple juice for orange and omitted the nuts and glaze and opted instead to top the whole thing with sugar.

Now for a complaint. Why is it that I have to create a google search half a mile long to get a vegan recipe without egg replacer, flaxseed meal or some other weird thing? Just give me the basics, PLEASE!

Stay cool,
