Vegan Black Bean Burgers

Satisfying black beans seem like a natural base for a hearty vegan burger, but most black bean burgers are mushy or fall apart when flipped. We managed to harness the sticking power of the beans' natural starches and, with just a few additions, create a great burger. For a dry binder, we used tortilla chips that we ground in the food processor; their corn flavor added a pleasing Southwestern flair to our burgers, which we enhanced with scallions, fresh cilantro, garlic, ground cumin and coriander, and hot sauce. We pulsed the beans with the chips near the end of processing the chips so the beans maintained some texture. When looking for something other than an egg to pull everything together, we didn't have to go far. Instead of opening a can of chickpeas for the aquafaba, we found that the liquid from the can of black beans we were using provided the necessary cohesion, and the beans were sticky enough to hold together without an additional ingredient. The black bean liquid also boosted the overall flavor of the burgers. We dried the rinsed beans well to ensure we had control over the moisture content of our burgers. When forming the patties, it's important to pack them together firmly.

Chinese Favorites

Expanding your skill set is always good to do, especially when it comes to cooking. In this course, you will not only learn about some advanced recipes from Chinese cuisine, you will also learn some expert techniques. We will make Flat Hand-Pulled Noodles (also known as Biang Biang Mian) with Chili Vinaigrette. Then so, we will break down how to make a perfect pot of rice (without a rice cooker). We will also make some gorgeous scallion pancakes that come with their own dipping sauce and Chinese Barbecued Pork.

Mushroom Bolognese

A good Bolognese sauce is savory, lush, and decadent. Traditional Bolognese gets its rich flavor from a combination of several types of meat. To mimic the meat sauce's long-cooked richness and create a satisfying vegan meal, we turned to the mighty mushroom. Two types of mushrooms helped us replicate that complexity. Dried porcini delivered depth of flavor while 2 pounds of fresh cremini gave the sauce a satisfying, substantial texture. To further round out the sauce's savory flavor, we added two umami-rich ingredients: soy sauce and tomato paste. Red wine lent richness and depth and a little sugar balanced the dish. Bolognese often includes a pour of cream; we found that some soy creamer—just 3 tablespoons—stirred in at the end rounded out the sauce and made it silky. We strongly prefer our favorite vegetable broths, Orrington Farms Vegan Chicken Broth or our homemade Vegetable Broth Base. Serve with our Vegan Parmesan Substitute.

Eggs Benedict

Eggs benedict relies on two tricky egg-based components—poached eggs and hollandaise sauce. Our foolproof method for poached eggs produces restaurant-worthy eggs with soft, runny yolks and perfectly formed, round whites. And our unconventional technique for hollandaise sauce creates a sauce that, although foamier than a classic hollandaise, holds without breaking for as long as an hour. It can also be refrigerated for up to three days and reheated in the microwave without breaking.
