I am so excited to help test recipes for Terry Hope Romero's upcoming cookbook. Her most recent, Viva Vegan, is fantastic. There is an amazing variety of dishes from cuisines I thought I knew, and each recipe I've tried has surprised me with really solid results.
The upcoming cookbook has quite a mix of dishes. The first one that caught my eye was "Seitan Bo Bun," a variation on my very favorite Vietnamese dish, bun bi chay or vegetarian noodle salad. Of course I didn't make the tasty-sounding Five Spice Seitan; instead a pressed and marinated tofu to easily make the dish gluten-free.
It took more than an hour, but I was really impressed with the results. Everything came together beautifully and the sauce elevated the entire dish. I'm so excited for this cookbook!
