Guys, I ’ thousand officially over winter. I refuse to accept any more icky weather .
But that doesn ’ t have to mean that I have to keep eating soups, stews, and casseroles, correct ?
I want to eat things that are clean, and green, and bleak, and filled with matter to textures ! I have NEEDS .
Needs like this vegan vietnamese salad bowl. Swoon .
What You Need For This Recipe
This vietnamese vermicelli salad has ;
- Tender rice noodles
- Caramelized tofu
- Raw vegetables
- Lots of crunchy peanuts
- The whole thing is topped with fresh herbs (cilantro + basil + mint)
- And a tangy-salty dressing
I decided it was high meter I made a vegan vietnamese attic bowl the way I wanted it !
alternatively of greasy, french-fry bean curd I wanted mine to be sticky-sweet and caramelized .
rather than two sprigs of limp herb, I wanted handful of bracing Thai basil, batch leaves, and coriander .
In stead of a few stray slices of cucumber, I prefer a vietnamese bun salad loaded with colorful veggies !
now, that ’ s what I ’ m talking about .
Since I made this at base, I was able to keep the dressing/seasoning vegan by using mushroom soy sauce alternatively of pisces sauce .
One quick note : most of the places around here call this dish “ bun chay, ” although I ’ ve besides seen it called vietnamese rice noodle salad, vietnamese vermicelli noodle salad, vietnamese bun recipe, bun vietnamese salad, vietnamese noodle salad and about a thousand other things therefore for the sake of argument lashkar-e-taiba ’ s barely refer to it as a vietnamese cold noodle salad .
fair looking at these pictures is giving me a serious craving ! I think it ’ s time I make my way to the kitchen and by rights welcome myself home .
