Hi everyone! A few notes on this. No it doesn't taste like pumpkin at all, all the seasonings and other ingredients completely overpower it. It doesn't taste EGGSACTLY like an egg, but it hits all the savory notes that I'd expect, especially in a sandwich or burger. Just make sure you add black salt after cooking too for extra eggy flavor! Oh and this makes a dozen eggs!
@@BeautyBritt it's like cheetos sold in Turkiye 😅 you can replace 1 tbsp of nooch (nutritional yeast) with 1 or 2 medium-sized green olives for taste.
I tried making vegan deviled eggs for Friendsgiving using silken tofu as the egg and a mashed potato-based spiced yolk. The silken tofu fell apart too easily. So I tried again by making agar agar and blending the silken tofu in with cornstarch, then pouring that into an ice mold. While that allowed me to shape the egg more easily, it was still too soft and fell apart in one's hand. Maybe you can experiment with it and figure it out, Thee Dude!
Oh Tabitha Brown has a recipe for that using mushrooms but she made it taste like Devil eggs but pickling the mushroom and then hallowing the middle out.
You should (if you don't already have) black salt - it tastes insanely similar to fried egg. I always use it when making tofu scramble or tofu slabs and jt tastes amazing. 😋
This is so frickin cool! I’ve actually never had an egg pre-vegan bc they looked...weird...to me and didn’t smell nice, but something about knowing this is vegan makes it very appealing to me!
Listen. I'm not a full fledged vegan although I've eaten many vegan dishes and I have no problem with vegan beliefs or anything. And watching you makes me delve even more. I'd eat that egg!!! And I mean that "Tommy's burger" looked spot on!!! And I plan to make your "Carne Asada" soon. Keep up the good work 👍
Pretty cool, TBD. You da mang! I admire your scientific side… much like Sauce Stache’s experiments. To be honest, I enjoy watching this stuff but I won’t probably make it. In fact, a vegan egg sandwich made of a fried slice of tofu and a cornstarch slurry yolk (made with turmeric, vegan mayo and black salt) is just fine for me. Thanks for a great video… 🙌
Wow! Very ingenious idea. I know I will never try making it. Hope some vegan restaurant will have it some day. You're recipes are always inspiring. Happy holidays 🎄🎅
What the heck? This is so cool! Part of going vegan has been a lot of experimenting and progress in plant based foods, it's so exciting finding new ways to improve and explore. I'm so glad people like you are here to keep pushing that!
@@lastlime3792 Not entirely sure what you mean by "as you destroy the planet". If you're saying all humans contribute to some degree then I agree, but if you think a vegan lifestyle is somehow worse for the planet then you're arguing against mountains of evidence and basically all of the reputable scientific journals' published papers. I don't see any downsides to reducing animal products to the amount that is practicable, other than minor inconveniences like some people having weird stereotypes about you and you sometimes need to get a bit more creative with food since most of our supply isn't geared in that direction. Happy to hear if you have opposing thoughts to this though.
@@JacKAsterisK their argument is some vegans are bad so we'll exaggerate their existence a hundred fold and pretend everything vegan is propaganda bad and stupid (i can say Hitler was not vegan but everyone will say that my argument is stupid but they won't apply that logic to theirs)
I may not be vegan, or even vegetarian but this genuinely looks delicious and even fun to make with differing flavors, would give a try, also obv ignore the haters food is art no matter the type.
I've tried the BeLeaf too. The white part was crazy realistic and I loved it (I also added black salt), but I didn't love the taste and texture of the yolk so I remove it lol. I've thought about making a runny yolk like the video, but I haven't had the time to experiment. I hope to at some point. And every time I try a new recipe, I have to get some weird ingredient on Amazon, which also annoys me..lol 😐
Thank you for the recipe - you inspired me to get out of bed and give it a go :) I have a recipe similar to this, but I use soy milk and plain (non-glutinous) rice flour - so naturally, I wanted to give this one a try. The only critique I have is that the glutinous rice flour does not stay stable after sitting for a few seconds and begins to break down into a "glue"-type of consistency. I tried this recipe again, but replaced the glutinous (sweet) rice flour with the regular/non-glutinous Asian rice flour and it works great. I've also used non-Asian rice flour in my other recipe and it works too. Good luck! :)
Not a fan of yolky eggs, I like scrambled for the most part. I am intrigued by the whites though. There are videos of deviled eggs using potato "yolks"; since I like the yolk to be harder, I might try one of them with your version of whites. But you've created a very convincing fried egg, good job!
This looks amazing!!!! I absolutely love the crispy edges and I’m so excited to try this on my own. Genius!! Also, please bring back the “Hey everybody it’s Thee Burger Dude!” intro!!! I miss it haha. I love your videos and always look forward to you uploading :)
With the fried egg do you flip the egg white with the yolk or do you fry both sides and then add the yolk? Anyways this looks amazing might actually order the wild ingredients to make it!
No you don't flip it, I mean you could but not sure what the final texture would be like. I just pour the white, add the yolk and then fry until it's where I like it.
😳 WOW..... I need to cook it to give it a less yoke look but this looks delicious 🤤😊🙋🏾♀️ Thank you for this ..... maybe the yellow can be mixed and made into spicy appetizers⛄
If you mixed the 2 the yolk and the whites can you make accurate scrambled eggs? Or is it more suitable to to use an especific recipe/mix for scrambled?
If you are looking for ideas on your next sandwich, I would love to see you come up with your version of a vegan bahn mi. There are many varieties but the traditional one has always been challenging because of the variety of ingredients. What makes this great for vegans is because is often loaded up with fresh veggies.
I'm really curious if the runny yolks are freezable. Maybe if some of the starchy parts (or the pumpkin?) are replaced by fats, e.g. a very ripe avocado?
Uhhh this is gonna be my life to have eggs omg !!! 😳😏😏😏 although I admit looks cool 😎 but wow so much to just enjoy a simple egg 🥚!! Here’s to loving animals & living better
excerpt from the recipe linked in the description, because i was personally concerned about this: “One last thing, if you need to dispose any of the alginate bath, don’t pour it down the sink as it can clog it up. Just add it to a bag and throw it out with the garbage!” just in case anyone else had the same thoughts as me and wasn’t sure where to look. also thank you for adding that detail
No no no nooo. I know u buy the real eggs u megamind antagonist! U make the dishes look so professional and identical to what I've spent my life eating as a non veg. It's God damn unbelievable 🤣. Its like good witchcraft... If that's a thing.
Looks really good. I’ve seen Sauce Stache’s video as well. Does any sweetness come through from the pumpkin purée? That’s my only concern. If not, I’m all in.
@@TheeBurgerDude thank you. I use it to make pumpkin bread, but of course it’s mixed with sugar & sweet stuff so I wasn’t sure. I will have to try this for sure
@@TheeBurgerDude I made one from Sam the cooking guy. Just 'nearly' vegan. Beyond sausage, cheese, pan fried potato chunks, crispy fried eggs and a maple syrup-siracha-mayo. But i'll check your recipe
i am so excited to try this! i've been looking for a recipe like this for years! before i went vegan, i used to make a fried egg with cheese on a toasted bagel every day for breakfast, and i can't wait to have some fried "egg" again!
This was intricate. I think you can get almost a cloudy version with whipped aquafaba and whisk in some of the pumpkin mixtures and then steam it in a pan. :D Both are fine. But that's a lot of work for an egg. I guess I continue to not eggs. :D
I was replying to the comment below, but I made deviled eggs with cashew and agar agar (as the base) poured into and egg form. turned out great texture etc. They turned out great. So I'm adding fried eggs and deviled eggs to the menu this weekend.
would you by chance know the cost of a dozen? A dozen eggs where I live costs 6-8 dollars so this could be reasonable for me, I don't mind the work they look delicious
Looks amazing, but have to ask how long in total did it take to make all of this? I can't see it being worth making anything like this to get a dozen eggs or so. Also for the egg whites why not use dosa batter it looks just like your whites crispy edges with some chew it might be less work and cheaper, with wayyy less work. Not a vegan but still love to see the creativity.
Thanks! I’d say the egg whites and yolks are about as complicated to mix up as pancake batter (yolk has more ingredients, whites are just 4). So once the sodium alginate is ready you can have eggs in about 20 minutes or so. If you have leftover whites and yolks it would be even faster. Or do an over medium, would be even more faster.
Yes! I have been waiting for this one :D I saw another vegan RU-vidr making the yolks with tomatoes instead of pumpkin, so if you're up to that, you can try making them that way and compare :D
Wow,what a complex process this is... it's shure much easier just to take AN EGG and,voila...you have AN EGG! Mother Nature shure did make THIS PROCESS much more SIMPLE by USING CHICKEN to lay- AN EGG🐔🥚🍳
Saying that you would rather contribute to cruelty than to go through the effort of making something else is the dictionary definition of laziness and selfishness.
@@GaryLuKOTHyou don't have to contribute to cruelty to eat eggs. You can buy the free range eggs. The chickens are not raised in cages. I am fortunate to live near people who raise free range chickens and buy them directly from the source.
@@132allie Since I do love the taste of eggs, I would do that if I can be sure that no chickens are harmed. Unfortunately, I cannot be. Almost all the time, calling them free range is a marketing ploy. If the chickens have any way at all to access the outdoors, even if it is not easy to get outside, then it could legally be marketed as free range. Aside from that, having chickens just so that you can sell their eggs is a concern. What would you do to male chicks and what would you do to hens who stop being able to lay eggs? You cannot profit as much if you spend money to keep them alive. But even if you can be sure, not all of us are fortunate enough to live near a farm where chickens are treated humanely.
Yeah the process isn’t really complicated I think just uncommon. The first time I tried it it was weird but you get used to it pretty quick, definitely fun!
