Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Sorry, Boston brown bread wouldn't be the same recipe w/out cornmeal. Unless there's a substitute I don't know about. Bummer you're allergic because that is one of my faves. IMHO, I think whatever works for you is just fine in regards to picking out meat. We all just do the best we can under our circumstances.

I'm always substituting but could think of anything for this. Sometimes substituting in baking doesn't come out as good in some things. Also, I know another vegetarian that cooks meat for her husband. If it's a stew or something she picks out the meat and eats the veggies and stuff. Is this ok in a not so strict vegetarian diet? I've been thinking of doing it this way since I have to cook the meat for my husband anyways. I make a lot of soups and stews. Thanks for your help.

I knew someone would know! (Thanks, Beth.) That was a recipe I posted some time back, but I confess I've always made it with cornmeal (except once when I made a mistake - and you're right, it wasn't at all the same!) as the recipe says. Perhaps another recipe would be good for you, Jan?? I like this one of course because there's no added oil or fat and no eggs (or egg sub) - and you can even get away with a tad less molasses and low-fat soymilk. Btw, to be trad, isn't Boston Brown Bread supposed to be steamed? (Not that I know much about it - not from Boston, ya know!) If so, this makes a pretty good sub, I'm told. We have it for breakfast mot of the time. Best love, Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 Well, it's your choice, but be aware. If you do that, it's no more vegetarian than eating a dead chicken or hamburger. The definition of being vegetarian is to consume no dead animal products, and once a substance is contaminated with dead animal parts, it's no longer vegetarian and the person who eats it is not a vegetarian by definition. My sympathy to you -- my DH is not vegetarian either, but dead animals are not allowed into the house. If he wants to eat corpse parts, he dines at a restaurant.
