I love that you often use cast iron. There is nothing like it. I inherited pans from my maternal great grandmother, grandmother, and mom. All my pans were cast between 1890-1930, the ones I use most often are from 1910. I wouldn’t trade them for anything. They are my treasures. You and the Nard Dog are my fave vegan chefs.
Made this for our family Christmas dinner, my wife, sister and I are the only vegetarian/vegans in the family. It was absolutely amazing! In the group of 10+ meat eaters this was a hit! My brother in law hates mushrooms and was smothering everything in this gravy, he couldn't get over how good it was! Derek thank you so much for these great recipes! When the vegetarian/vegan food is the first to get finished because everyone is going nuts over it, makes me feel super proud! 👌👍
Todd Meyer that is amazing!! We feel the same, and it’s so encouraging to hear that the vegan dishes are getting devoured so quickly by all of the eaters!! Thank you for sharing!!
I'm usually not the comment type of guy but since this channel is lacking views (related to the insane quality content), I thought I'm gonna leave some kind words for you. I'm from Germany and came from Gaz's collab video. And dude, holy shit. Your team is amazing and you are a great host. You do real cookin' where the quantity cannot be ultimately measured in tsp, tbsp whatever. It is good to see, that there are vegan cooks out there, who do the magic with regular ingredients. I only tried two recipes so far but both worked great and I'm also a cast iron pan advocate haha! Thank you so much for sharing it for free :) I'm going to order you book, I hope this it the best way to support you and your team !
We are so glad to have you over here on our channel! Your words are encouraging and extremely flattering...thank you for your support and we will keep the videos coming!
I absolutely love all your(Wicked) recipes! We been mostly vegetarian for last 40 years and within last 2 years we became ardent devotees of vegan due to climate changes and to benefit health and to avoid animal sufferings etc. We have raised two beautiful tall grils on this diet. I made the mashed potatos with flavorings from Costco's vegetarian bullion and the flaovr and the color looked great for our taste. Yes, we agree, the future of food is thes mushrooms. Thanks again! Lara
Derek, I am mesmerized by your voice and technique. I have watched you make so many dishes and this one literally had my mouth watering, haha! I really admire the respect (for lack of a better word) that you show the plate itself as well as the food. In some ways, you are an artist! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and great sense of humor, you make things looks less intimidating. 😉👍
Thanks so much 😊 It's great to hear that you find these recipes and videos approachable...that's one of our main goals with Wicked. We just want people to feel comfortable cooking plant-based for themselves (and their loved ones!) and see how easy and delicious it can be. Thanks for watching!!
My God, Derek. Just come from Gaz Oakley's channel earlier today and I've now watched about 5 of your videos, but couldn't not comment on this one. EVERYTHING looks amazing, I will definitely be doing this next time I fancy a roast! Keep up the amazing quality content :)
You have totally changed my style of cooking. I look at veggies (and especially mushrooms) in a whole new way despite having been vegetarian for 12 years and vegan for the past six months. Your relaxed approach to cooking, your brilliant explanations, everything. And NOW you are in the UK; I never knew that until a week ago as there isn't a Tesco very close to me. However!!!! They do deliver :) so my second stash of fantastic goodies will arrive this evening. Your book arrived this morning and I am SUPER, SUPER impressed! Thank you.Wicked!
I can't believe I just watched 23 mins of a video recipe for king oyster mushrooms and smoked tofu, which I can't find where I live, and green beans, which I don't like lol. It does look amazing, I'm sure your channel will get more recognition in the future. Love from Spain xx
It’s June and I need to make this! I love making traditional stuffing (using Bell’s seasoning, it’s what my mom used) anytime…so I think this needs to be an anytime dinner too! Yum!
To darken the gravy I use less bouillon and use soy sauce. I get a lot of compliments, especially with my "stamppot and hutspot" dishes (typical Dutch food. Veganized, of course). Oh, on a sidenote. Because of looking at you and your brother I got much better in slicing and dicing. And I got a cast iron pan for my birthday because of you. I am used to it within a week and love to use it! Thanks for all your explanations and videos!
My mouth is watering watching this, love these cooking tutorials as I’m going to go vegan and am already gluten free and feel overwhelmed as I’m not the greatest cook! Thank you
Hey, good for you! We’re here for ya and are always trying to underwhelm...I mean, make things less overwhelming when it comes to cooking plant-based. You got this!!
This looks amazing Derek. That's the kind of food I want to be eating and making! Awesome job. I began watching your channel only recently when I was diagnosed with hypertension, diabetes and high cholesterol. Your whole plant based food methodology is awesome. Thank you so much for your calm and tranquil presentation style and for doing what you do!
Hope you enjoy! This is such a great meal for the holidays...I made this last Thanksgiving for my non-vegan family and it was honestly a bigger hit than the "traditional" choices that were offered.
That dinner looks awesome.. it’s now on my to do list! The mushroom gravy is killer by itself just over potatoes but now I’ll add the tofu.. have yet to try the smoked tofu.. can’t wait.. 👍❤️
Great video I like how you spend it it works better with my brain because my brain goes really fast. Looks amazing that is definitely something I'm going to have to make thank you for the upload
This was excellent, I never knew smoked tofu even existed! Only one store out of 10 had it near me, Weygmans. It was a hearty, crunchy meal which is sometimes/ usually difficult to find in vegan food. I always put cauliflower and parsnips in my mashed potatoes but never thought to add garlic and I like the way you added the same tofu seasoning to the gravy and veggies, nicely done!
The gravy alone is sensational. Literally just made it now for a recipe tomorrow. Granted I've had a couple beers now but I'm walking around furious that this was possible without meat and most people dont realise. Your gravy brings all the vegans to the yard and they're like (to the meat eaters) it's better than yours. I'm cracking open another beer. IDGAF!!!
that was fantastic! I would add a cranberry sauce of some type to accent the flavors perfectly. Love the way you separated the broccoli, I'm going to be using that trick a lot! Thanks so much for a fantastic vegan meal idea
Chef Derek! You and your brother have changed my life! Just bought your book also. I saw your videos and I am set to continue my quest on the vegan path! I was frustrated that I would not be able to have any turkey and brisket with my family this year. Now, I get to have my own! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! When I come back to the UK to do my comedy shows, we MUST meet and have a BrewDog! LOL! I am just wondering if you guys have a dressing or stuffing recipe I can use and a giblet gravy recipe? That would take me over the moon.
oh man this one looks absolutely delicious wow gosh new one for me to make for Christmas :) yay thanks for sharing ... for sure going to make this one. Appreciate your channel enjoy watching ya regularly and always looking forward to all of your NEW Mushroom recipes ... Amazing ... again thanks
Woah! The algorithm brought me back to this old video of yours!! Looks super tasty! Garlic mash is my favourite! Look forward to trying this maybe for Xmas this year...if it's not too hot for all that cooking! That gravy looks mega. Have to check out some of your other dishes with the oyster mushroom shreds. Yum!
Awesome cooking and foods🤩Just realize that people with uric acid issues (beans! mushrooms! broccoli!) have to drink tons of water to enjoy all that deliciousness!😃
absolutely delicious. it was simple enough to prepare and fairly quick. I had never fried tofu before and was pleasantly surprised that 1) it did not make any mess 2) was extremely digestible. excellent dinner. Sarno wins again 👍
Wicked indeed! No king oyster mushrooms here in Mexico so I’ll use cremini. No smoked tofu either. Maybe I can make my own somehow? I love the gravy but boy do you use a ton of vegan butter and oil. I will cut that way down substantially. Love your recipes with modifications. Can’t have all that fat!
Same here with the mushrooms & smoked tofu. I plan to use shiitakes. You can smoke your own tofu. I did a Google search and found several sites that show how.
I am outside, right now, smoking some tofu wondering what I was going to do with it. While I was sitting here watching it I figured I’d turn on one of your videos and this was the first one that came up. Looks like I’m trying the turkey green beans mashed potatoes. I’ll probably swap out the broccoli for brussle sprouts. My family likes the brussels sprouts better.
1 fish,1 snake,2 cats,1dog,1 4yr old who thinks she is 12,1 36 yr old nephew (emotionally damaged), walk up old apartment with 1 washing machine on first floor. I love cooking from scratch. Centers me. Love your recipes. Thanks.
So yummy! A turkey dinner was my most favorite dish as a child! My Mom was an excellent cook! I cant wait till payday next week so i can make this! Thank you! Keep cooking Mr. Sexy!
I have a really good idea for that smoked tofu, bake the whole block in a baking dish in vegetable broth maybe some soy sauce or wine etc and make it like a baked tofu turkey or glaze it like you would a ham.
Did you freeze the tofu first to firm it up more?? I do that when I desire a more meaty texture. This all looks so amazing and you make it look so easy, lol. I made your oyster mushroom steak the other day but just seasoned and fried in pan, no BBQ sauce. Used a mesquite seasoning and cracked black pepper. Quite tasty. Your book should arrive today or tomorrow and I'm really excited to check it all out. Thank you for opening up a whole new vegan world to us all. Lovin it!
Wow. Been a long time lover of your work Derek! This is such a great medley. Gravy is everything! Will def try. Can we make the seasoning here in the US since it’s not available from your company?
You might look in your grocery store or local health food store to see what they have. Otherwise, a homemade version of that would probably be easy to pull off…and made to your taste.
Subscribed! I've watched a few videos and appreciate your style of presenting. Also appreciate that you make "normal" food meant to taste good. We have an electric smoker, I might buy some tofu and make a Sunday roast. Thanks for the video!
Thanks, Amber! We really appreciate your positive feedback and are happy to hear that you 100% get our goal-to make delicious food that happens to be vegan!

This looks delicious!!! I would have never thought to make smoked tofu like that. I'm going to have to give it a try.
Looks superb. Love the trick of cutting broccoli florets. Brilliant!

Great idea! Cranberry would take this over the top!!

So glad youtube recomended your chanel! I just loved it!
Just beginning my vegan journey and so thankful to find your channel! What vegan butter and shredded cheese do you use?

I love king oyster mushrooms. When we go to Chinese New Year we always get an amazing dish of King mushrooms and spinach I believe
i love this tony hawk guy's recipes. they're all so easy and good
Binge watching the amazing Derek Sarno!!! I think I’m in love! 🥰
Thank you for the perfect Thanksgiving menu. I think the gravy will have to be a regular thing in my house.
Wonderful videos. Watching you from Auckland, New Zealand..
❤️Looks Delicious Thank You❤️
THANK YOU for this DELICIOUSSSSS RECIPE! ❤❤❤❤
That looks great, thanks so much for sharing 🙏💕
Bumping for Thanksgiving 2024. That shredded king mushroom gravy was the money shot.
Could you show us some of your favourite vegan "wrap" recipes? I had a mushroom/ truffle oil/mayo wrap the other day and it was delicious!
Youre the best , Derek!
I definitely want to try this, you make it look really easy!
Wicked indeed! No king oyster mushrooms here in Mexico so I’ll use cremini. No smoked tofu either. Maybe I can make my own somehow? I love the gravy but boy do you use a ton of vegan butter and oil.

wow!!!! Cant wait to try Thanks for your content!
When you added the potato water to gravy you should explain why. People might not know that the starch helps keep the gravy creamier.
...Happy New Year and stir-the-gravy....also practice tong skillz...
Omg it all looks so delicious
Do it, Essie! It's amazing...
I am outside, right now, smoking some tofu wondering what I was going to do with it.

It looks soo good. Gonna have to give this one a try on my non vegan friends. Thanks for another great recipe.

This mushroom gravy is worth the wait! Thanks for watching!!
why am i watching this after lunch 😋
You are a magician
Thanks, Jeanne!
I have a really good idea for that smoked tofu, bake the whole block in a baking dish in vegetable broth maybe some soy sauce or wine etc and make it like a baked tofu turkey or glaze it like you would a ham.
Wow
Hey Derek, a quick question: Do you press your tofu so the tofu will absorb the flavors better? Loved these recipes, especially the gravy
Wow this looks amazing 😋
This looks so good!
It looks delicious
Yummy 😋
I am going to give these amazing recipes a try. In the meantime, can I come over for Thanksgiving 😋
Amazing, keep up!
Wow that looked so yummy😋💥
Looks delicious!
