Vegan cooking for animal lovers

Vegan Cooking for Animal Lovers is a no-budget, quick-take, straight-to-DVD cooking program targeted at hipster vegans. Kerry “the hardcore chef” Weber guides viewers through eleven quick and easy vegan recipes.The recipes (along with principal ingredients or description) are Hail Seitan (a wheat gulten-based meat substitute); Tamil Tiger Rice (a Thai-style jasmine rice, coconut milk, and chick pea dish); Seitan Stokin’ Off (a Beef Stroganoff, with meat substitute); Cool Hand Cookie Cheesecake (tofu, cookies & sugar); Eviction Notice Sloppy Joes (textured vegetable protein & ketchup); When Spud Gets Off Heroin This is the Potato Salad He Will Eat (potato, onion and vegan mayonnaise); Vegetable Medley of Hardcore Gaiety (a veggie salad); Free Noriega Wraps (nori paper and chick peas); Mushroom Mosh Pit-Tatoes (potatoes & shitake mushrooms); Fuck Nazi Sympathy BBQ Tofu (tofu, navy beans, & BBQ sauce); Taimat’s Piña Colada Pie (pineapple, coconut, flour & sugar).The titles of the recipes pretty much capture the flavor of the presentations. There’s a lot of inane, seemingly off-the-cuff jokes, especially during the Eviction Notice Sloppy Joes and Free Noriega Wraps segments, along with heaping helpings of profanity served by hipster chef Weber. There’s a rough-and-ready approach to the presentations with cell phones going off here and there, amateur camera work, and Weber asking the film crew for the names or pronunciations of various ingredients.Though some of these dishes require extended cooking or chilling times, especially the desserts, none need much prep time. Some of the non-perishable ingredients may require viewers to turn to internet suppliers, but all of the perishable ingredients or suitable substitutes are generally available everywhere.
