    I wouldn't judge your fridge for the simple fact that you actually have food in it.

      wtf is this comment then if you really do not want to judge keep it to yourself don't say it ,don't think about it but if you do these and want to say i don't judge others then you are wrong cause you do judge others just like you did it with this comment of yours and so if you want to judge someone judge them be honest about it and judge them rightly , don't be afraid to speak the truth and don't be a coward who doesn't want to listen to his own fallacies and wrongdoings , on note of that sometimes what's in someone's fridge is not just food but could be a dressed up corpse of a murdered animal who did not want to be there in the first place . So let's leave him on his own . BTW the purpose of me writing this long comment is not to make you feel bad but to help you be the better person. Veganism is a step in that right direction .

      I think he really means that the fridge is still full of food despite the veganism. There are some vegans out there who have basically nothing in the fridge. Absolutely nothing because they say that’s veganism. Quite weird, right? Cheers

The person who wrote the orginal comment wrote it as sarcasm, meaning that they don't judge people for what they have in their fridge, because having ANYTHING in it is better than nothing LOL!

    Wow. This looks AMAZING. I have never seen oyster mushrooms being sold like that, I can only buy them in packages already separated. 😢 but I’d think I could still replicate the taste, if not the visual of this recipe…and so it’s on my “to try” list! Thank you for sharing!

      My husband calls the smaller, separate pieces (when I can't find the larger clusters in stores) vegan popcorn chicken! I've tested other vegan oyster mushroom recipes and both the larger and smaller pieces are absolutely delicious. Looking forward to trying out this recipe.

    My crunchy fried chicken cheat is potato chips. Grind them up in the food processor and mix them with the dry ingredients. They will stay crunchy no matter what.
    I have to find a better place to get oyster mushrooms. The one place I can find them are almost always expired.

    Why do vegans seem to feel a need to lie about what they are cooking? If it is mushrooms just say mushrooms. This might be a wonderful recipe, but I will never know because I can't stand the click-bait hypocrisy.

    • @TheKoreanVegan
      @TheKoreanVegan  5 місяців тому +4

      I understand your frustration. But as a professional recipe developer, content creator, and food blogger, I have to wrestle with SEO, visibility, algorithms. If I called this "Korean fried oyster mushrooms," the chance that you or anyone else actually seeing it goes down significantly. That's not my fault--I can't really do anything about that. Also, many vegans still think of this as "vegan chicken," an alternative that is better for them than synthetic meat products. I've also consulted with non-vegan chefs who view oyster mushrooms as "vegan chicken." I don't think hypocrisy at all. Click-bait, arguable. But, I think there is a fair enough argument in favor of it being merely descriptive.

    All my life I've tried different techniques for making good fried "chicken" and every time has been a huge fail. So I'm delighted to report that I followed this recipe and the texture was PERFECT. Crispy, crunchy. However, it had a weird note to me and I think it was probably the soju and that's my bad. I think soju is disgusting so why did I batter my food in it?? It left just a slight sour note. Still yummy but not quite a 10. But I'm definitely using this technique again but next time I'll use soda water and see how that goes. Thanks so much for helping me finally make great fried food!!
