Cooking…for the halibut

To-Try Recipe #3: Easy Vegan Aquafaba Mayo

Made with an immersion blender. It might have worked better if I’d had a slower hand at the oil dribbling – the recipe said to start out t the oil at a drip and progress to a slow stream, just like regular mayonnaise, but of course knowing me I had to slosh it it. My blender wasn’t working very well and I’d chosen too small a jar for it to maneuver properly.

All that said, it turned out good!  A little runny and a little too salty, but tasting surprisingly like real mayo!  I will definitely make this again.

Keep or Discard? Keep

 

To-Try Recipe #4: Oat Bread 

This is technically a retry, because I did it once before and it failed almost as bad then as it did this time. Before, it didn’t rise. This time it did rise, rather nicely, and then fell again.  The dough was way too sticky—it needed at least a half cup more flour—and so it couldn’t be shaped nor could it hold its shape.

I’ll eat it tomorrow as part of the Japanese Egg Sandwich. And I’ll save the recipe, for inspiration. But I'm not sure if I'll ever make it again.

Keep or Discard?  Keep, and see if I can get it to work better if I ever try it again.
