Vegitarian Corned Beef?
Posted by TheVeil on Nov 02, 2006 · Member since Nov 2006 · 20 posts
Hi everyone,
This is my first post on the board.
I have a strange question about a strange topic.
I have been able to find vegitarian analogues of pretty much every meat dish i've ever liked. With one exception, Corned Beef. Does anyone know where I could find a recipe for this, or does anyone have a recipe for it?
I'd really like to make Veggie Corned Beef and Cabbage for a friend of mine, she fiends for it.
Anyways, thanks,
Jason
My husband and I love to just chop up cabbage, saute it and a medium onion in some margarine and a little oil (in a big stock pot) and after the onion is soft and cabbage has reduced, add a can of slightly drained diced tomatoes and a can of mild sauerkraut with caraway seeds (rinsed or not to your liking)
it has quite hearty taste. You could add some kind of "meat" to this like a veggie sausage, or a morning star grillers crumbles kind of thing...
I know maybe this isn't what you had in mind but it is nummy! :)
also instead of tomatoes and sauerkraut, you can add apples and raisins with a T of vinegar
Thanks Jennifer!
I actually hunted around a bit more today and found a recipe! I'm really excited to try it now....
Here's for any other people interested...

yup, the recipe you posted is pretty close to the one i made last year that was TO DIE FOR. it should be great!
oh, don't forget the "bubble and squeek" too.
and i have a killer soda bread recipe i need to post one day. but not now. now i need to get some zzzzs
Wothington Farms or its sister company (I think it is called Loma Linda) makes a vegetarian corned beef. I do not know if it is vegan.
I don't, either-- but I've tried it and it's pretty tasty. Very salty, though, and laden with MSG, unless I'm mistaken. But if you're not sensitive to MSG, do try it.
I've tried to make a "corned" tasting seitan poaching broth to no avail (though I did make a retch-inducing hot dog flavor in the course of experimenting... ugh!) I like the option of flavoring the dish, rather than the protein component-- and that recipe looks like the bomb!
The recipe sounds lovely although I've never heard of a veggie version. Can't wait to try..
Wow. You're my hero! This was the recipe that was keeping me teetering on the edge of "I'm not sure I can go 100% vegan"-ness. I haven't had it in a while, but I wasn't sure I could say goodbye to it forever. I'm VERY Irish.
I can't wait to try this. Thank you so much for finding it!
I ran across this recipe today for Seitan Corned Beef:
http://www.everydaydish.tv/Recipe%20Pages/seitan_corned_beef.html
Just chiming in to say "Welcome" to TV, and the other newbies I see posting on this thread! VegWeb is a good place to share, learn---and oh, the recipes!! The recipes!!
You get some good chuckles on here, too.
Drop into the chat room sometime!

I will try them soon. Thanks
Oh Yes! The recipe worked really good--I made some alterations and simplified it to a one pot meal--I entered the new recipe a few weeks ago--but I don't think it has been review yet. It was really good--and really simple since I threw everything into one pot! I bet you could even put it all in a crock-pot!
