Thank you! So screen out the dust, rinse several times like rice, squeeze as much liquid out of it as possible. Then flavor with mostly dry ingredients. Sauté in oil. Got it! Now to watch the burger video…
WOW, Thank you so much for sharing. I thought I would never get this right. It went from tasting like cheap dog food to something that I wouldn't mind eating everyday.
great tip, thanks. i'm new to cooking with TVP and a little bit of prep went a long way. i found myself using a lime squeezer to squeeze the TVP in the final round of squeezing. it sounds tedious but i only had to do it 6-8 times for 130g of dry TVP.
i m a vegan for 10 years. i do it exactly the wrong ways and guess what? it tastes delicious! Amazingly! In all the food i ve tried it is super, in all the wrong ways possible! :nerner. I watched the video cuz i thought i ll learn something fabulous, but nope, nothing! I beg yr pardon!
I agree! I've been a vegan for 17 years and don't taste anything weird. I save time by boiling with chick'un or beefless vegan broth or marinades. Same works for TPP and Butler's soy curls.
Thank you so much for showing us what not to do and how to get rid of that soy taste I will try this the next time I use my TVP I’m going to try to make tacos gracias amigo
doctorrrrrr where are you???? I just found this video and went to your channel to binge watching all of it but there isn't any other! please come back!!!!!!
Ingredients: TVP 2 Lemons Garlic powder Soy sauce Lemon pepper Instructions: Strain TVP several times until water comes out clean Add all ingredients Optionally, let it rest for a while in the fridge Cook in frying pan with oil or butter
Ok so I did wash my tvp the way you do. My mistake is that right now it is sitting in a bowl of marmite broth. You said it will bring out the tvp flavor again and I think you are slightly correct. Its just that marmite is so strong a flavor you can’t really tell. I will try another batch and dry season after washing and see. Thanks for the tip! A little new info goes a long way😀
@@DoctorChef1 The problem is that traditIonal TVP is usually 50% protein (made with defated soy). But there is 70% TVP which is made with soy protein concentrated, and it have not the soluble sugars that make traditional TVP bitter. If such 70% TVP was available for consumers people would use a lot more, since it would be easier (no wash required) and without bitter taste.
Best tip! Thank you. I made this tonight and added soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, beef bouillon, garlic powder, comino, onion powder and pepper and cooked it in a pan. It tastes like meat. :)
If it's cost, sure. Usually TVP is eaten for ethical or health reasons though, which adding beef bouillon would defeat the purpose. Also- if you're eating TVP for the cost, you're ignoring the fact that beef is far more nutritious. It's more than just protein. When you're replacing TVP in place of beef, you have to find a way to replace all of the micronutrients in beef too, like adding more vegetables to your dish. Which... costs money
@@EasyXploits I am not replacing beef , I just buy however much I can afford of beef (Which is not enough) And then I supplement it with TVP so I can get enough protein for building muscles at the gym.
I don't know why you think TVP has a bad taste. It's yum, I just dump it in dry to my soups/broths/casseroles and cook till its re-hydrated. No need for all that, it tastes like soy lol soy doesn't taste bad.
Soy curls taste more like soy milk or tofu Sadly it looks like shredded chicken and has very short shelf life because it has all the oil of the soy beans.
Not for nothing but this took way too long to get to the point. And when we arrived it was the most basic of ingredients. No hate but you could have shaved off a good 5 minutes in this video.
This is a terrible tutorial. This guy is clueless. Add beef broth powder, Worstershire sauce and liquid smoke to soaking water. Beet powder or juice will give it a red ground beef appearance. Dried mushroom powder and nutritional yeast also contribute to the flavor. How do I know? I am a professional chef.
Worcestershire sauce is not vegetarian though and I guess beef broth powder would not be either in most cases? So that wouldn't really work if you want to be a strict vegetarian.
"Vegan meat" is an oxymoron. If meat is so bad why are vegans always trying to replicate the appearence, taste and texture of meat? Are there not enough satisfying plant-based recepies? If meat is what you want, be aware that there is no substitute for the real thing.
@@Paskasauruss It was not the taste but the questionable "ethical" and "environmental" reasons to which I was referring. Indeed, nature has a reason why meat tases good to all humans everywhere.
@@freeman8128it's for people who were non-vegan transitioning to vegan, I suppose. But the whole idea of it is to just make the transitioning process a lot more bearable. If one sticks to veganism he/she will eventually ditch out the meat and it's alternatives. To each their own. Blessings.
Only if you're allergic to soy. Otherwise, TVP offers protein, fiber and important vitamins and minerals. Like all things in life, moderation is key. Here's to a healthy life!
I use to avoid tvp and I just tried this method and omg it was soooo good thank you no soy taste at all
I've watched this video many times. I always come back to it. Thank you!

This was very informative. Thank you!
WOW, Thank you so much for sharing.

I really appreciate the detailed tutorial. I'm new to TVP and am intimidated by it.
Wow! 2 videos on your channel and both are great! I enjoyed it and learned something.
Thanks for sharing!! It was helpful 😊
"You have to really be a strong ethical vegan to eat this taste and share it," I LOLd, what a line
Use of the word 'ethical' illustrates the fact that veganism is a cult rather than a simple dietary choice.
@@freeman8128keep seething :)
Thank you for these tips.
I'm glad that I watched your video before making it. The others did it the way you said not to. Thanks!
Gracias por el consejo, la próxima la prepararé así.
¡Saludos desde la Ciudad de México!
Useful tips, thank you.

I’m excited to see what you will be making next
You are 100% correct. That's the way I make it.
Thanks for the info broo..
Great vídeo men! Hugs from Brazil!
Best so far,I soaked it longer,but now I ll do it ths way
Thanks for the tips. Frying it really helped. Marinating and adding to sauce without frying made the strange flavor come back.
Great video! Thanks for sharing. Jesus bless you 😊
This is so delicious, thank U. I'd really like your burger recipe
Oh I found it with your lentil video 😊
Will wait for your recipe 😊
I’m excited to try this with TVP. Does preparing it this way remove any of its nutrients?
I made this, it's DELICIOUS!!! :)
You can use a vegan chicken broth or bouillon cube to infuse the chicken flavour if you want.
THANK YOU FOR ADDRESSING THE HORRID TASTE OF PLAIN OLD TVP AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. NOW I’M GOING TO GIVE IT ANOTHER TRY 😇👍🏾
Liked and subbed! Thanks a lot for sharing.
I need to TVP and thank you for the hot tip 😊
thanks for sharing

Not vegan but i tried eating it during retreat and the wrong ways was the instructions they gave me, it was delicious. This video is HORRIBLE 😅
So much effort.

I apply the same technique to soy curls too. Rinse and squeeze until the starch is gone.
A better way is to use a nut bag or white washcloth add your tvp then tie off the ends so you can squeeze out the water in between each rinse.

Strain TVP several times until water comes out clean

Hey, wich one was your best way of cooking it? I'm getting stressed because i never really like the flavour
@@fridaa.l.2191have you found the best way? What do you mean the 'flavor', does the flavor stick even after doing the process shown in the video?
Maybe some powdered or crumble a cube of vegan soup instead of marmite.
Ufff que pasada de video! Lo que voy a tratar de hacer es un mole de soya a ver que tal queda! Un saludo!
Thank you so much man! It soaks up so much oil during the frying. Do you have a solution for it?
Nonstick pans and less oil I guess. I really dont put much attention to it since its hard for me to get enough calories as it is on a vegan diet
@@DoctorChef1 The problem is that traditIonal TVP is usually 50% protein (made with defated soy).

correct way starts at 2:50
Shanks for the info. The tvp I use is smaller tho so the squeezing and draining process is gonna be annoying. Gonna try this later tonight
If you have a potato ricer, it should work great for this. I usena ricer for squeezing our cooked spinach
Try a cheesecloth?
na i threw up from it once lol and got trauma and have not had it in 1 year
@@Paskasauruss
same. and it makes sieving out the dust really difficult because you lose like half of the product!
I know you don't use measurements, but can you estimate?
Best tip! Thank you. I made this tonight and added soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, beef bouillon, garlic powder, comino, onion powder and pepper and cooked it in a pan. It tastes like meat. :)
What is the point of making fake meat if you add beef boullon?
@@EasyXploits
Cost.

I just add it to the dishes. My favorite is chili Or tacos. But I like the taste of tvp.
U like the taste of soggy cardboard ?
hey! can you freeze this? and if so, would it be best frozen neutral or after sautée?
yes ive tried it
Where is the next video?
I can’t find a tvp burger recipe either, only lentil.
Don’t we lose important nutrients with the yellow water?
You never uploaded the TVP hamburger recipe?
2:50 is where the correct way to prepare and cook the tvp.
So the “correct” way to prepare TVP actually is to drain it…? But but just to drain it multiple times?
Make sure you squeeze out the water several times. The bad taste squeezes out with the water. Plus that weird foamy stuff also goes
Where is the next video with the meatballs etc?
Soy curls taste more like soy milk or tofu Sadly it looks like shredded chicken and has very short shelf life because it has all the oil of the soy beans.
3:00
I can't be the only one wondering how much of the nutrients are being washed away with this method.
Clarification: Bob's Redmill TVP is very cheap near me in the US :)
Won't the protein go out if you squeeze it
No just water I think. Normal tofu is usually pressed to remove water and doesn't lose any protein.
can you make a video in spanish ?
this guy made a whole documentary about the wrong ways to make it -_-
UA-cam moment
This video is really helpful, but also dude clean your fridge...
Pea protein crumbles
😂😂😂😂😂
I think I'll pass.
Not for nothing but this took way too long to get to the point. And when we arrived it was the most basic of ingredients.

Get on with it… jeez the first half of the video is all the wrong way. Just show the right way!
lmao I always watch cooking videos at 1.5x-2x speed
Lol!!!
Relax impatient Karen
Actually, I found the wrong ways very helpful too... they are taught so often
Chill Karen be patience he give amazing tips

You can get vegan worchershire sauce and "beef" broth
Just get to the point because you are getting annoying….
Too long winded!!!

I like meat but just trying to cut down on it for health and environmental reasons. TVP is a nice option. Looking forward to trying this method!!
TVP so dangerous for health
