Vegan Home Cooks
Come join the Vegan Home Cooks!
Participation is really easy, just take a picture of what you cooked today and post it, no recipes needed.
This is a public forum for a discord server of friends who are all vegans and cook at home for their families.
We are here to share some inspiration, to see what others are doing and to stay engaged in something that is both our hobby and a required task.
This forum is not a "food porn" community, a recipe book or a place to teach you how to cook. It is a place for people who already cook to meet other people like themselves and provide on topic support and conversation as much as long distance friends on the internet can do. We are doing show and tell about what we made and we don't care about its instagram worthiness.
Veganism isn’t a diet but I have to eat every day. This is for the vegan home cooks. Anything non vegan will be deleted.
Rules
1. Be Vegan.
If it is not vegan it doesn’t belong here… or anywhere.
2. Post home cooking.
No restaurant or fast food. This is what every other vegan space is about and we don’t want to promote any large or small business tyrants.
We’re an active community of vegan home cooks that like to talk about what we are cooking today.
4. Do not make any rude comments or digs at anyone’s food, cooking style, specific diet, restrictions or technique.
While we are all cooks, we all have different requirements and we’re not asking for help, we are doing show and tell.
5. Do not use trademarked brands
Use generic names. We’re cooking with tvp not whatever business brands it and we’re not trying to turn comrades into billboards. No plant-based vegan-pandering capitalist crap like Impossible, Beyond, Dairy-company owned “vegan” cheese.
6. Do not ask for a recipe without otherwise engaging the OP (No posts that are just “recipe?”)
We are not food bloggers. Sometimes we're excited to share and will tell you the recipes we used but this isn't required. Instead try doing your own research and tell us what you learned and we can talk about it.
7. Careful with making unasked for suggestions.
Sometimes we like to hear suggestions but you should be nice about it and know the person you are making suggestions to. We are in the discord and you can get to know us that way. If you are just a visitor from the fediverse, this isn’t the place for you to start telling other people what to do.
8. Adults Only.
While this isn't a community for adult material we expect everyone who participates to be an adult. If you have a gross and profane username you will be removed.

A very very important tip is to add toasted sesame oil, for me this is absolutely not optional! It brings out all the other flavours and really elevates the dish to another level. If the dish would be a 5/10, adding toasted sesame oil would take it up to 8/10 just on its own, it's that crucial!
If you have any questions or comments please let me know! I love this dish so much.
This! Toasted sesame oil is sooo good in ramen, it's my go to as well!
If you ever get the desire to switch it up, I highly recommend giving the mushroom scallion oil from the serious eats ramen recipe a try too. It's sooo goood. I don't do it too often because it's extra effort and energy is finite, but I'll make it from time to time.
Love the gochujang idea, btw! I'm totally trying that next time.
The mushroom-scallion oil sounds very interesting! I'll definitely give that a try as well, I bet it's worth the effort.

Please follow our rules. Rule 6. They are not up for debate, thanks.
They did follow rule 6 though, it states to not ask for a recipe without engaging with the op. They replied to the op asking for a recipe so that's engagement. If you want to enforce rules make sure the rules make sense first.
They wrote, "Please provide recipe" this is against the rules. Engaging the OP means being nice to them, giving a complement and bringing something to the discussion. Please re-read rule 6 and if it doesn't make sense to you this is a problem with your reading comprehension. Also the recipe is above in the post.
