Vegan and Vegetarian Recipes collected from alt.food.vegan - and beyond!
Homemade Nutmeat (Light)
Meat - Nut - 
- 
INGREDIENTS
- 2 lb / 900 g raw nut butter (or raw peanuts ground into meal)
- 1 cup flour, wheat meal or soybean meal
- 5 1/2 cups water
- 5 t salt
METHOD
Thin down nut butter with water to the consistency of heavy cream. Add salt and flour. Put into cans and cover with waxed paper held in place by rubber bands. Place cans in large kettle with water reaching half-way up the cans, and cover the kettle. Steam for 4 hours. Can also be done in pressure cooker, 10 lb / 4.5 kb pressure. No reduction of time was given for pressure cooker use. Yields 2 1/2 to 3 lb (1.1 - 1.4 kg).
NOTES
I came across my mother's old vegetarian cookbook, published in 1946. In those day, there were no where the amount of commercial products available as there are today, so there are several recipes for make-from-scratch products that may be helpful for those who live "in back of beyond" and don't have access to prepared products. Many of them contain eggs and cream, and probably could be made with substitutes, but these are some that didn't. Remember that these are concentrated foods and best used in combination with other ingredients, such as in stews, hash, pot pies, etc.
