SO HOW'D IT GO?
This was very good! I am gluten-free so instead of bread i rolled it with vegan cheese, veganaise, and tomato in a large romaine leaf.
The recipe was almost a 5 except it is a little salty and next time i would prefer a little more "smoke."
As my first time cooking with tempeh, i am very happy. i have avoided it for years but will definitely add it to my weekly grocery list now.
thanks
it comes in a bottle, you can find it in your normal grocery store. Look next to the BBQ stuff or in the spice isle. Pretty much it is just really concentrated smokey flavor (so be careful not to use too much). i dont care for it myself, so when i make this recipe i just use a vegan smoked BBQ sauce. It works good for me!
What is liquid smoke and where do you get it? I've never seen it at grocery/health food stores. . .
