I really wanna try tvp at some point but haven’t seen it around at the places I shop, I’ll have to search for where I can get some
Lentil soup has been high up on my list of things to try. Daal too, I’m curious what its like. I only tried lentils in like the last year but I really like the green ones I’ve had so far- I’m hoping to get some brown lentils for the mujadara some time cause I think I’d like them better for that dish than the green
Thank you for taking the time to type out your thoughts ☺️ hope you have a lovely day!
Most veggie/vegan natural stores sell it. Just a dried protein. A slight generic flavour to it like cereal. It absorbs flavour from your sauces or marinades. Here it is about $8-$12 for a bag that will last quite a few meals. But we found an Indian grocery story that sells it as Soya Wadi and its only about $3 per bag. Same stuff. Either in big chunks or ground up into ground beef size bits.
Goes well into tacos, chilli, shephards pie, etc.
Daal mostly depends on what you cook with it, besides the lentil themselves, like a tomato based sauce, yogurt, lemon, etc.
The black lentils stay the firmest and have texture after cooking, the red lentils will cook down to a paste…and there are a ton of other types.
Thats for the reccomendations! ☺️
