How Do You Make Vegetarian Italian Sausage (Vegan-Friendly)?
Anyone choosing a meat-free lifestyle need not be denied of the flavours of hot Italian sausages. While this recipe is certainly not the ‘real thing’, it’s tasty and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. In a small bowl, mix broth, wine, tomato pasted and sesame oil. Stir in the textured soy protein granules and allow 5 minutes for them to soak. Add the tofu, garlic, red pepper, fennel, salt and black pepper. Spread the vegetarian Italaian sausage mixture on a plate and cover. Place in refrigerator to cool. Once your mixture is cool, add gluten powder and mix well by hand. Press firmly into 10 thin patties or 14-20 firm links. Steam your vegan Italian sausages over simmering water for 20 minutes using a plate or steam basket. Any patties you will not be eating should be frozen or refrigerated for future browning and eating. Brush a non-stick frying pan with a little olive oil or brush the patties/links themselves with oil and grill on both sides until brown.
