imo the Middle East and some North African cuisine is the best tasting all around vegan that has tons of recipes to try each one better than the last. Indian is very close, and I'd argue it has better tasting vegetarian dishes than vegan due to paneer being so awesome. But imo Afghan has the best tasting vegan food there is hands down. It's flavor profile is inbetween Indian and Middle Eastern taking the best from both. Try Afghan cauliflower curry sometime. It's really good!

My favorite vegetarian (usualy I don't make it vegan) dish is risotto which does not require meat at all imo, but I do like the cheese and butter.

A trick to save time on cooking is to always cook an extra portion or two of dishes that require time like that lentil dish. Than either eat it for lunch next day or freeze it and every time you are too busy or tired to cook and are most likely to order a take away or just have cookies for dinner microwave those portions. So you always have a nice choice of soup, stew, pasta sauce,.... ready to eat.

Legumes (chickpeas, lentils, beans etc.) are also very easy to store in the soaked form! You just have to soak, rinse and cook (with more water than usual) them as normally, in whatever quantity you want them - and then close in sterilised jars as any other preserve. This way you can have legumes in the same ready-to-use form as with store-bought cans and jars, but much cheaper, since dried versions cost less:)

So much to to explore on tofu. I'm Malaysian and we use a lot of tofu in our cooking. There are tofu, silk tofu, tempeh, fried tofu, dried tofu skin, tofu ball and Fuchuk. You can braise it with soy sauce (Chinese style), stir fry it with other vegetables (try making tempeh stir fry Indonesian style), put it in Malay coconut curry, or south Asian curry, deep fry it & dip it in sweet sour sauce (Thai style), or put it into soups. It's so versatile & delicious. P/s: I've also moved into a whole food plant based diet this year, it was easier than I thought, but I still include eggs for the b12 vitamin. I realise there is so much versatility in plant based cooking and you don't need to include fake meat at all.

Just a heads up: kimchi isn't usually vegan. It has shrimp paste or fish sauce more often than not.

That's the problem with a lot of the plant-based community. I've been a vegetarian for 30 years and have been a vegan on and off during that time. The thing is not to become militant. If kimchi has a little shrimp paste in it, it's not the end of the world. I've eaten plenty of kimchi without shrimp, btw, I'm just saying, don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. A little fish sauce is not going to make a difference. You don't need to become obsessive, which many vegans/vegetarians unfortunately fall into.

I just want to add that although I like the holistic way of eating vegan and not using 'mock meats', there's another way to look at it. A lot of these 'fake meats' are just plant based ingredients cooked in a unique way. A lot of the healthier vegan burgers are just legumes and vegetables mixed in a food processor and shaped into patties for example. So just think of it as exploring new ways of cooking plant based ingredients, cause that's all it is. As far as the more highly processed mock meats, they still have a place. Majority of vegans are doing so for the animals and environment. If they grew up enjoying animal products, they can still do so only without actually harming animals

It was a really eye-opening experience for me and it did challenge me to try and make way more varied dishes and to discover new foods I loved.

Kwook, you should investigate chickpea flour. As besan, it is so versatile that you can use in in sweet and savoury dishes, and baked goods, and it makes a mean Tofu - the Nepalis make both Silken and Firm tofu, by cooking besan into a savoury thick porridge, pouring it into a container and letting it set. You can cut in into any shape and make curries, or chips, dumplings,. You can make quiches, muffins and breads both risen and flat, and pasta. And then there is Socca - a chickpea flour pizza-like dish, with salt, water, olive oil, topped with onions, peppers, cooked in the oven. You can eat it hot or cold OMG. And cooked chickpea dishes and freeze well. The downsides are that 1) besan/chickpea flour tastes bitter if its not fresh, however, if you toast it lightly in a dry pan before you use it in recipes, that removes the bitterness completely. 2) the benefits of legumes are a two-edged sword, because the insoluble fibre is extremely important, but your gut's flora, are like drunken sailors when they don't get enough, and make you fart. They literally have to evolve to handle all the good fibre. But, soaking besan flour batters for few hours or overnight, tempers down the windiness. Just like you showed in this video, getting the best out of vegetarian and vegan food needs discipline, because you have to work with the ingredients to get the maximum deliciousness from them. So, if I want chickpea flour pancakes, I toast the chickpea flour, and make the batter in a jug with The stick blender. Cover it and leave it to soak over night. In the morning, I just whisk the batter and make my pancakes, or bake a Socca, and aim fine for the rest of the day. It's very different from just pulling a bit of meat out the freezer. And works best if batched cooked. Socca with onions, mushrooms, and peppers is great frozen, and reheated in the oven or is frying pan. Or eaten cold, or served with a salad. Seasoned with garlic, herbs. It is such a versatile ingredient, that it's a permanent pick for me, even though I'm not vegetarian by inclination, because I love meat, but I love my health more. So, I have to be prepared to take the rough with the smooth, because it has expanded my food vocabulary. Just like Ottolenghi did for you. There is dome thing healthy I can have fun with working with the ingredients, rather that insisting they were something else. So, thank you for sharing, and I hope you find more inspiration on your journey. Santé!

As a fulltime uni student and a vegan, meal prepping and eating leftovers worked best for me in terms of saving time! It’s always nice to see someone who’s non-vegan make choices like this. Great video 👍

I cook 2-3 meals a day every day from scratch and it takes up a lot of time all on it's own. On top of all the other cleaning, laundry, pet care, errands, etc for a whole household. My husband is able to go further in his career and avoid burnout because I am doing everything else. Way too often people say taking care of a home for multiple people is "nothing" and I hate it.

Its definitely not nothing. Its a lot of work. The whole human societies are here today because of people like you, silently taking care of everyone else so they can do their jobs. ❤

Here’s some advice for eating plant based from a 13 year vegan. 1. You were definitely putting more effort into vegetable prep than you need to. It’s ok to use convenience items like canned and frozen food to cut down on time. In addition to that, it may feel like you were putting more time into preparing tempeh than meat, but you were also learning a new skill. If you were to prepare tempeh a few times a week, that 40 min of cooking would be cut down to 20 very quickly. A really quick and easy meal I make myself all the time is a southwestern style burrito. The ingredients are black beans, hash browns, greens, and salsa verde. Now I could take an hour and a half to sauté onions and garlic before simmering my beans, making homemade salsa, and cooking and shredding my own hash browns from whole potatoes. But instead I cut down time by instead heating up canned fat free refried beans in the microwave before stirring in onion flakes, tomato paste, cumin, oregano, and pre-minced garlic. Then I rehydrate dry hash browns with hot water, and after wrapping it all in a tortilla, I finish with store bought salsa. It’s healthy, quick, low waste, and it tastes just as good as the long version. 2. You’re probably eating way more protein than you need to, especially if you’re not an athlete. I was a professional dancer and I now teach yoga for a living and I’ve never needed to supplement with protein powder or worry about making high protein meals. It’s a common misconception that just a normal human needs like 80 g of protein a day. You don’t. What most dietetics associations recommend is between 30-50 g a day for a moderately active adult. The protein obsession in the west is just a marketing ploy to sell more whey. Essentially, if you’re getting enough calories, you’re getting enough protein. With your love of beans, you definitely don’t need to worry. 3. Most people experience some bloating and increased gas when they go vegan. It’s because you’re eating much more fiber than you were before. It goes away when your digestive system acclimates to the increased fiber. For most people it takes about a month. It’s also an indication that your non vegan diet is a bit low in fiber, so you should try to incorporate more whole plant based food now, like whole grains, nuts, and raw fruits and veggies. 4. When learning vegan culinary skills, seek help from vegan food creators. There’s plenty available that have an endless wealth of tips and skills to share. I recommend fit green mind, hench herbivore, and rainbow plant life. We vegans have spent years discovering new ingredients or better ways to use old ingredients in order to maximize eating only plants. We’re happy to share. 5. And finally. Nutritional yeast. Put it on your pasta, salad, bread, soups, sauces. It’s delicious. There’s a reason we put it on everything. Get yourself some and thank me later. I hope this helps!

As another vegan (only 7 years here), I wanted to go over some of the points you made. 1) Although I also use convenience items, I think he was making many things from scratch because this is a cooking channel focused on sharing recipes and cooking techniques. For a vegan channel trying to make vegan food more approachable to the general public, those tips would make sense. I also agree that as he gets more familiar with new ingredients and techniques, he will get faster at making vegan dishes. 2) Even though there is an obsession with protein in the West, podcasts with health scientists focused on nutrition seem to be reaching the conclusion that for optimal health span, it is best to build up muscle mass before middle age through increased resistance training, be it weightlifting or otherwise. The increased muscle mass will serve as our muscle reserves into old age, so there is an increased need for protein (0.8 to 1 g or kg of body weight) in that case. That being said, that requires people to be physically active because too much protein consumption with low levels of physical activity then creates a surplus of branched-chain amino acids that can now feed cancers, not good, rather than muscles, which are good to maintain strength, stability, and balance in later years. Still, I prefer people consume protein from whole foods sources over isolates on most days. 3) A lot of the bloating and gas comes from beans (and other legumes) and cruciferous vegetables, specifically. Here, it pays to observe the traditional diets of populations that have been consuming these foods as staples for centuries. Soaking, sprouting, and cooking beans for longer periods of time helps break down and/or wash away the raffinose sugars in beans that feed bacteria in the large intestine that then produce gas. Kombu (kelp from Japanese cooking) contains enzymes that break down raffinose, and cumin, epazote, and asafetida from Mexican and Indian cuisine also help. Turmeric and ginger can also help with bloating. Fiber alone should be increased gradually as many westerners don't consume the minimum suggested requirements of 30 g per day, and vegans can eat 80 g and more and be fine. Rural populations in Africa who consume plant-based diets eat over 120 g of fiber per day! Give yourself one or two weeks to transition, and increase your water intake significantly as either diarrhea or constipation may arise for those drastically increasing their fiber consumption. People with bowel conditions need to proceed with caution as certain people may have intolerances to wheat, nightshades, alliums, soy, etc. that becomes exacerbated, and SIBO is a thing that stops people from continuing their vegan diets. 4) I second this and also encourage people to check out Brian Turner, Simnett Nutrition, The Korean Vegan, Cheap Lazy Vegan, Mommy Tang, Caitlin Shoemaker, Sweet Potato Soul, Fully Raw Kristina, Pick Up Limes, Hot for Food, The Edgy Veg, Peaceful Cuisine, Gaz Oakley, Yeung Man Cooking, SauceStache, Thee Burger Dude, The Happy Pear, and so many more. Moreover, there are many cooks and chefs who are not vegan but who make vegan dishes (or easily veganizable dishes) every now and then. That and many ex-vegans I used to watch still have all of their vegan recipes up on their channels. 5) Nutritional yeast is an acquired taste. Not everyone likes nor tolerates it well (it gives my mom bad stomach cramps). Also, the brand makes a huge difference. It's more of a trial-and-error approach. In certain sauces, it is very good.

​@@letsdomath1750Are there any actual serious studies showing causation in humans regarding prot/cancer? Sure if you eat 150g of protein daily from streaks and pork and butter there might be an issue, but mostly due to the saturated fats. And I agree that there is a craze of protein this and protein that in the west. But we do eat less protein than we should while loading up on "bad quality" carbs and fats.

I eat a normal vegan diet mostly Whole Foods prepared at home, no supplements and without even trying I get 85 g of protein a day just from a of meal with tempeh, broccoli, a scallion pancake and for breakfast overnight oats with peanut butter. That’s plenty enough for me, maybe too much. I put my meals into Cronometer just for fun and it shows I surpass all micro and macronutrients with flying colors. The protein shakes are overkill and just a ploy to make people buy useless stuff that they don’t need. Also yes to nutritional yeast- it gives you more B12 than the daily recommendation

Lentils, beans, chickpeas, seitan, cashews and paneer are my go-to proteins

For whatever's worth, I've been vegan for six years and watch your channel frequently. I really like your approach to food. Re farts, normally, they stop after a while. I actually fart a lot less now than when I was a (big) meat eater. Now, I'm rather shocked at how bad my digestion was before. Good luck on the journey!

omg vegan long time watcher too and I love his approach to food too I love sharing my own vegan recipes over on my KZread channel trying to make ppl see that it doesn't have to be complicated to incorporate more plant based meals

I eat mostly vegetarian (I eat fish in some occasions) which is of course not the same as vegan, but I have never found it challenging because that's how I have eaten my whole adult life, so I never felt like I need to "replace" meat some how. I just cook things I like. And I agree that you shouldn't just use these meat replacement products, but there is time and place for them too. Sometimes you just want to eat a hotdog 😅

This is the best video I have seen on changing diets. It is about making your new foods tasty, and we can research that beforehand.

7:15 that frame was very clever 😊 Love your cooking but can absolutely praise your video making 🤐 Loving your long form content as much as shorts ❤️❤️

A lot of people are so weird and militant that a meal cant be complete unless there is meat in it. I try to eat only one meal with meat every day and it makes my diet so much more varied. Also it’s way cheaper on my grocery billls lol

Yes It’s funny how you say less meat is cheaper for your grocery bills - because meat is heavily subsidized to keep the costs down! Imagine if meat and dairy were sold at their true price, most people couldn’t afford it and many would switch to plant based (Whole Foods) just from economics. Vegan is more affordable for sure

​@@chubbatheBOSSTell me how buying food which is substantially lower in calories and nutrition can be more affordable?

Its great to see you exploring new foods! Definitely going to try that charred shallots with freekeh recipe!

Wow, thank you for this experiment man! I'm vegan and watching your videos for a last year and a half. Thank you for sharing! Buy the way i'm doing a lot of meal prep during the week. Like roasting veggies in air fryer, tofu, hummus, buckwheat or rice. Then just mixing it all together in a bowl. For me it doesn't take a lot of time and my refrigirator normally full of different food. Which is easy to eat as a main dish or snack.

Responding to your point about the food being less efficient to cook. I am Indian and I have eaten mostly vegetarian food for the entirety of my life. Most people don't know this but many of the Indian Hindus (80% of the entire population) don't eat any non veg food on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday due to religious reasons (40% of the population is strictly vegetarian) and my family was one of those people. Both my mother and my father used to work jobs and food for me had to be prepared early when I was a kid as I had to leave for school at 5 (Asian schools😂). I am pretty sure that all of the food I had was vegetarian and there were abundant vegan dishes there. I would like to suggest you eat daily Indian food rather than famous Indian food. You might reach out to some Indians(actual Indians not whitewashed ones) and they can assit you through your journey 😊. Hare Krishna🙂

Another thing... meat here in India is not stored in the fridge and you cannot buy it at the supermarket. You have to get it personally cut at a butcher's shop where they pick up a live chicken cut its head off and prepare it in front of you while you order what cuts you want and how big you want them to be. That contributes a lot to why we don't have meat everyday.

This is a nice learning video! So much to take notes on, love this. Thank you for sharing your journey on trying vegan life!

That Romanian bean dip looks freaking amazing! Totally going to try that. I'm not vegan or even vegetarian, but I do think a lot about trying to make meat less central to my diet. This was so interesting and helpful. I always really enjoy your videos, and this one was especially fabulous -- thank you!

Loved seeing you embrace this challenge, especially as I've recently leaned into a vegan diet myself. It started with "Vegan Fridays" and, inspired by a friend, it's now a near-daily practice. While I'm not strictly vegan, my diet is predominantly plant-based. Every small step towards less meat consumption makes a difference, and it's all about finding what works for you. Keep it up!

this was cool 🙂 i think at the end of the day, everyone should really do what feels right for them and it’s their own business! but it’s nice to see folks trying to get in touch with the cycle of food & doing their best to appreciate where it comes from, thinking about where they can increase or reduce an intake where it can realistically fit into their lives and so on. i think that we all benefit from offering ourselves and each other just a little bit more empathy with these things, good luck on your food journey wherever it goes!

So cool that youre open to this! Iam vegan myself since a year and i feel a lot better since changing my diet to fully plantbased.

Ok, as a Korean guy, please cut the tofu in small rectangles! It catches more sauce and more uniformed. Also, check the kimchi package! Kimchi is not traditionally vegan! Most kimchi has salted shrimps in them, so please check if it’s vegan

thank you for showing this side of the culinary world! vegan food is truly amazing in the way it makes you experiment with a much wider scope of ingredients that you wouldn't otherwise use. I love it.

Love your vids! Your plant based recipes are always fun and realistic and really tasty.

Congrats Kwoowk for your journey and all your thoughts on relationship with food! Very nice to see you inspire people into considering changing their eating habits. Way to go!

Congratulations on your journey. I wish you the best with it and hope you can maintain for 3 weeks. Then 3 months, then years

I love that you make an effort to cook ethnic ingredients in their original recipes. It is always wise to first taste how it was meant to be consumed before altering recipes or using it in a bizarre way. Mapo tofu is one of my favorites (but I sub the peppers), but there are many other non-sichuan recipes that can stand on their own.

this was so nice to see someone be so positive about trying more plant based cooking, love your attitude!

You are amazing. Your insights are so genuine and open. Keep it up. ❤

Julius's (Hermann) videos are all amazing! Highly recommended!

Little advice if you want to eat some more plant based food: if tofu makes you nervous, try silken tofu. It can be blended into smoothies and creamy pasta sauces, and it's really nice on noodles / instant ramen. Bean burgers are filling and are great if you are really strapped for cash. Indian food is the best vegetarian food in my opinion so look there. I also feel like a simple bean stew is a great place to tart. Quick base of onion and garlic in oil plus chopped tomatoes then you can add all sorts of herbs and spices, you could add cider and put dumplings on top to make it british, put feta and oregano on top, or do pesto and some pasta mixed in.

This was your best video 👏🏼 it was problem-solving, informative, and had minimal crude humor 😅

I really like the approach you take in this video. I've been wanting to try and cook some vegetarian and vegan recipes after realizing how much I depend on meat and diary products, and wanted more variety in my diet. Seeing you trying new things and being open to change like this is motivating! I'm a very picky eater but there are so many things I haven't tried that you used in the recipes you showed, and it looked delicious.

@@TTR83it’s nice to eat less meat every once in a while. It’s expensive, usually full of cholesterol and fatty. I love myself some steak but it’s nice to spend a little less money and go back to a time where meat was a treat and not a necessity

I really loved the point about being "close" to our food. I feel like part of why I don't like food nearly as much since moving to Europe was loosing the closeness to food. You definitely gave me some food for thought

I was wondering why it took you so long to make recipes, but then saw you made a Chef Yotam reciple. His recipes take hours to makes, have a huge ingredient list, make you want to cry, but are still somehow worth it at the end xD

I definitely agree to eating more plants than more processed fake meat. I am going through the same life changes to eating more plant based meals. I'm figuring out how to season my veggies and marinades and sauces. Love all you videos!

I think what a lot of people in the west (vegetarians and vegans included) often don't realize is how much easier plant based dishes are to create in most non western cultures. Most non western food cultures until very recently naturally evolved to be mostly plant based, because obviously meat and other animal products were usually much more expensive. For example, the shift you take to be an Indian vegan is soo much smaller than a western vegan. Trying to make a western diet vegan vs just eating dishes that are naturally vegan (or close to it) takes a lot more work for an often inferior product. So to anyone who comes from the west or another heavy meat eating culture who wants to go plant based, I highly recommend checking out other cuisines for plant based dishes. This will make your life easier, and probably healthier. My favorite is Indian food.

yayy!! this was amazing to watch that you liked your 1 week plant based eating!!

It’s always so good to see people trying plant based foods and being actually open about it! I haven’t eaten meat in months and I honestly got so much more creative with recipes and tried more diverse dishes since then. Just as you said, it’s not about restriction

The bean part cracked me up hahah

Greetings from Ghana. One of the BEST vegan challenges I've seen. Well done!!

To use your cooking time more efficiently, you can batch cook. It takes roughly the same amount of time to make 10 portions than 4. So make a lot and store it in the freezer in portion-sized freezer bags.

This is my first day of Vegan and the best time to watch a video on Veganism. I am happy that you tried a challenge. I'm challenged myself for 30 days and try to increase the day if I achieve that destiny. As an Indian, I'm happy you tried an Indian food, there is a lot of Indian foods which vegan without removing anything, like Idli, Dosa, Samosa or my state's popular dish Litti Chokha, and I will recommend you to dive deep in Indian foods' list. You'll find a lot of Vegan foods. I hope that you'll be a Vegan one day...

I live in the Netherlands as well and honestly I don’t think I’d be able to eat how I do if I didn’t. I’m not vegan or vegetarian but I’ve cut a lot of meat out of my diet mostly due to finances. I eat seasonal vegetables but the basis of almost all of my dishes is a combination of potato, rice, lentils, carrots. I hate the flavour of carrots so I’ve basically taught myself to cook them in a way where I don’t taste them anymore.

I’m not vegan but I do look to eat more vegetarian and even vegan foods when possible. At home, I don’t buy beef (relatively unhealthy protein and bad for environment) but eat almost entirely chicken or seafood as my animal protein while incorporating as much tofu, tempeh and other protein alternatives where possible. My favorite is soyrizo - Mexican chorizo (crumbling sausage) made of soy. It’s much healthier than the beef/pork Chorizo and taste fairly close. I also eat more and more beans. Beans are one of the few foods that can often reduce my craving for meat when I’m eating. Pinto beans are my go to (creamy, filling, flavorful but not too strong in flavor) though lentil and chickpeas (garbanzo) are more versatile

Kwoowk stabbing the package cracked me up.
