Dried TVP Chunks?

[Guest guest]

I just bought some dried TVP chunks from the bulk bid at my Whole

Foods Store. Unfortunately they came with no instructions. Any idea

how I should use these....I think they are the " chicken " vs. " beef "

flavor. Thanks in advance.

You could put them in stews, stir-fries, etc., or any recipe that

might have " chicken chunks " in it. My husband once made a veggie pot

pie and put those kind of TVP chunks in it. I see if I have any

specific recipes for you.

You soak them 2:1 ~ hot water:tvp let them sit about 10-20 min and then

throw them into stews,chili's, stirfries

They roughly double in size and soak up all the water (or most of it at

least So if you have 1 cup tvp put it into 2 cups hot water wait about

10-20 min and drain any excess water you should have about 2 cups tvp

I have a great TVP recipe that I was going to post, but I am having some

trouble with Mastercook. I think I entered it correctly, and put in my

correct mail server information, but for some reason I keep getting

error messages when I try to send it. (Karen G - help!!) Anyway, I

will try to keep working on it, and send it within the next couple of

days if I can ever figure out how. I've had Mastercook for a couple of

months, but have so far only used it for importing. This is the first

time I've tried exporting, and I'm not having much luck.

 

In the meantime, I recommend the TVP Cookbook, by Dorothy R. Bates. The

recipe I was going to send comes from it.
