What Do I Do with…Tempeh?

Healthy with Fruits and Vegetables Recipes.Sharing all things related to health, Benefit of fruits, herbs and vegetables. Traditional and Modern Recipes included Vegetarian Recipe, how to manufacture and maintain health naturally.Health is more valuable than treasures

I first became acquainted with tempeh on a trip to balmy Indonesia back in 2000. A roving street vendor sold little packets of the fermented soybean cake that had been sliced thin, deep-fried, and sprinkled with an aromatic salt. I became an addict from the first bite, enjoying them every day of that memorable trip. Years later, I still wax nostalgic about the savory flavor of those crispy chips.

Tempeh’s origins have been traced to the Indonesian island of Java, where, for centuries, cooked soybeans have been subjected to a controlled fermentation process, then transformed into edible cakes. It’s still a staple of Indonesian cooking today, and can be found in the refrigerator section of natural-food stores and Asian markets throughout the rest of the world, where it’s typically sold in square or rectangular loafs.

Even though tempeh has yet to reach tofu’s popularity as a meat-alternative, it has a lot going for it: it’s a whole food that’s gluten-free, loaded with protein, and contains both Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Because it’s fermented, it’s easy on your digestive system, too. It has a distinctly chewy (but not jiggly) texture and a nutty flavor, but its general blandness gives plenty of scope for dressing up with different flavors.

When sliced thin, marinated in a bit of liquid smoke and tamari, then pan-fried, it makes a great veggie bacon for your BLT or morning Benedict. Because of its beany texture, crumbled tempeh also works as a tasty stuffing for tacos or burritos when seasoned with cumin and chili powder.

My favorite way to prepare tempeh is with a marinade that reflects the flavors of Indonesia: Chili, lemongrass, garlic. I let it soak up the spicy goodness for at least 15 minutes before stir-frying it with vegetables and serving with rice and plenty of sambal oelek (red chili sauce).

Roasted Vegetable Sandwiches with Zesty White Bean Spread

Healthy with Fruits and Vegetables Recipes.Sharing all things related to health, Benefit of fruits, herbs and vegetables. Traditional and Modern Recipes included Vegetarian Recipe, how to manufacture and maintain health naturally.Health is more valuable than treasures

Serves 4

To show how easy it is to adapt Bittman’s concepts and recipes, we used his blueprint for a VB6 sandwich (bread + a smear + vegetables) to create this one. The cumin and coriander used to season the vegetables are common spices in a number of global cuisines, so you can take the improvisation even further and add a dollop of salsa for Mexican flair, a spoonful of chutney for an Indian twist, a dab of harissa for Moroccan flavor, etc. Roasted Vegetables 1 tsp. ground cumin1 tsp. ground coriander1 tsp. kosher salt or sea salt½ tsp. coarsely ground black pepper2 large zucchini, cut diagonally into ½-inch-thick slices (1 ½ lb.)2 medium red and/or yellow bell peppers, seeded, cored, and cut into eighths3 small onions, cut into eighths2 Tbs. olive oilBean Spread 1 tsp. olive oil2 cloves garlic, minced (2 tsp.)1 ½ cups cooked or 15-oz. can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained1 Tbs. lemon or lime juice

1. To make Roasted Vegetables: Preheat oven to 375°F. Stir together cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper in small bowl. Set aside.

2. Toss together zucchini, bell peppers, onions, and oil in large bowl. Add cumin mixture, and toss to coat.

3. Divide vegetables between 2 baking sheets, and roast 30 to 45 minutes, or until tender and golden brown, turning vegetables once or twice and rotating baking sheets from top to bottom. Cool.

4. To make Bean Spread: Heat oil in small skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, and cook 30 seconds to 2 minutes, or until translucent and fragrant. Add beans, and coarsely mash. Stir in 3/4 cup water, and cook 10 minutes, or until mixture is consistency of refried beans, stirring occasionally. Stir in lemon juice, and cool.

5. To assemble Sandwiches: Spread 2 Tbs. Bean Spread on each bread slice. Top 4 bread slices with 1 cup Roasted Vegetables, 2 or 3 tomato slices, and 1/2 cup arugula. Place remaining 4 bread slices on top. Cut in half to serve.

One of the questions I get asked most about juicing is “What can I do with the juice pulp?” Tons of things! Read on for 20 of my favorite uses for leftover juice pulp—and get inspired to reduce your food waste and make fantastic use of healthful fiber.

1. Blend pulp into a smoothie to add fiber.
2. Add to a soup to thicken and boost fiber and nutrient density.

4. Make a veggie broth by boiling pulp with water, herbs, and spices, then straining.
5. Make a “fruit tea” by boiling fruit pulp with water, adding spices such as cinnamon or ginger, cooling, and then straining.
6. Use veggie pulp to add nutrient density to mac n’ cheese or pasta sauce, or layer into a lasagne.
7. Make fabulous fruit leathers.
9. Use in homemade veggie burgers or fritters. Pulp adds moisture, flavor, and nutrition.
10. Mix pulp into baked goods like muffins, cakes, bread,  dehydrated or baked cookies, and granola bars. Celery, onion, carrot, sweet potato, spinach, apple, and berry all work beautifully.
11. Use fruit or veggie pulp to add flavor, texture, and moisture to pancakes.
12. Make dehydrated pulp crackers.
13. Use pulp for raw pizza crust.
14. Make pulp marmalade.
15. Make a pulp crumble by mixing pulp with fruit and juice, reducing, and then topping with oats, spices, nuts, or seeds.
16. Dehydrate and make trail mix with raw nuts, seeds, and dried fruits.
17. Dehydrate and use like bread crumbs.
18. Use in DIY skincare recipes like scrubs, masks, and soap.
19. Mix pulp into your dog’s food or make dog treats.
If all else fails:
20. Feed it to your chickens, freeze it in ice cube trays to use later, or compost it.

*Please note, the moisture content of your juice pulp can vary depending on your juicer, so you may need to squeeze out excess juice for the best results in some of these recipes.

We tried to get the consistency of this beverage close to that of the frozen milk teas served in Taiwanese-inspired boba tea shops. It’s more like a slushie than a smoothie or milkshake, and is only mildly sweet. The recipe makes enough blender-ready frozen matcha cubes for seven 1-cup servings, so you can whip up a slushie in seconds anytime the mood strikes. 2 Tbs. matcha tea powder2 cups soymilk or almond milk, plus ¼ cup more for each slushie? cup agave nectar

1. Place matcha in medium bowl, and whisk in 2 cups water brought to just under a boil. Cool.

2. Whisk soymilk and agave nectar into cooled matcha tea. Pour into 42 1-oz. ice cube molds, and freeze.

Supereasy Vegan: Popeye Pesto

Healthy with Fruits and Vegetables Recipes.Sharing all things related to health, Benefit of fruits, herbs and vegetables. Traditional and Modern Recipes included Vegetarian Recipe, how to manufacture and maintain health naturally.Health is more valuable than treasures

I think it was Plato who said “necessity is the mother of invention.” Never has this maxim resonated more with me than in the kitchen, where many surprisingly tasty meals were born out of sheer lack of options coupled with a strong desire to eat. This spinach pesto is a good example.

It was one of those nights when the cupboards were bare save for some pasta, a bag of nuts, and a couple of cloves of garlic. In the fridge, I spied something green, which turned out to be spinach. I thought to myself: “If only that spinach were basil! Then I could have some crazy-good pesto pasta for dinner.”

Mulling it over a bit, I figured it probably wouldn’t taste awful if I substituted spinach for basil. It might even taste good, and I knew it would be healthy. Besides, what I always taste most when I eat pesto is the garlic. And the salt. And the olive oil. So I gave it a whirl—literally, in the food processor—and the results were beyond-expectations yummy.

This simple spinach pesto works well as a pizza and pasta sauce, a dip for crudités and breadsticks, or spooned over steamed veggies. I sometimes put a dollop on homemade minestrone soup to kick up the flavor, too. Feel free to experiment with the greens you use (arugula is lovely as well), try different nuts, and always use a quality olive oil for the tastiest results.

Popeye Pesto

Makes 1 cup

4 cups spinach, washed and roughly chopped
1/4 cup whole blanched almonds
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 Tbs. nutritional yeast (optional)

In a food processor or using an immersion blender, pulse all ingredients until pesto is smooth with a bright-green hue. Serve with crudités, breadsticks, or as a sauce for pasta, pizza, or steamed vegetables.

2011: It's untold, the amount of times I've roasted asparagus like this. The sweet-ish vinegar simply contasts therefore fantastically with the delicate, nearly creamy roasted spears.
