Vegetarian soup recipes
|
Traditional chinese vegetarian cuisine uses a lot of much mock meats, which are often made of highly processed wheat.
There are mock pork, mock duck, mock prawns, mock calamari, and etc. You name it and they will try to "mock" it. I still remember drinking a chinese vegetarian soup made up of mock prawns, calamari, fish and salted vegetables. I had severe indigestion after that and vowed never to touch mock seafood again. But it could be that many people have good digestive systems as such mock stuff are quite popular. I guess if the motivation to go vegetarian is to avoid killing animals, then creating mock meats to "compensate" for the obstinence seems reasonable. In recent years, more people are becoming vegetarian for health reasons. More healthy vegetarian recipes using natural ingredients have surfaced. This include chinese vegetarian soup recipes. One of the difficulties in finding vegetarian chinese soups is the soup stock used to prepare the vegetarian soup. The ingredients in the soup could be all vegetables but the stock could have been made with chicken, pork, fish or prawns. What one need is real vegetable stocks.
