vegan

Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of any product created by or obtained from any living creature.
Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of animal products, particularly in diet, and an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of animals. A follower of the diet or the philosophy is known as a vegan. Distinctions may be made between several categories of veganism. Dietary vegans refrain from consuming animal products, not only meat but also eggs, dairy products and other animal-derived substances. The term ethical vegan is often applied to those who not only follow a vegan diet but extend the philosophy into other areas of their lives, and oppose the use of animals for any purpose. Another term is environmental veganism, which refers to the avoidance of animal products on the premise that the industrial farming of animals is environmentally damaging and unsustainable. Interest in veganism increased in the 2010s, especially in the latter half. More vegan stores opened and vegan options became increasingly available in supermarkets and restaurants in many countries.

    Recipe Parsnip and Pea Balti

    Parsnips contain high quantities of the compound 3-sec-butyl2-methoxpyrrazine which is also present in green peas, so they have a natural affinity with peas. The compound is used in the perfume industry to produce fragrances with ‘green’ notes (which happen to be my favourite perfumes!)...

    I've adapted the recipe from here and added some suggestions from this site where I got the recipe from. It is suggested that it is served over rice but I think it could work with pasta as well. I would also suggest that if you have time try to marinate the tofu for 12-24hrs in the fridge...
