Official Title of this Community: Ethnic Minorities and People of Color

Why is the title different?

We like to have fun here.

What is this place? A safe space for underrepresented peoples and peoples of color to talk, chill, and vibe.

What are the basic rules of the community?

  1. Follow Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines. Non negotiable. This is the bedrock and mods will make decisions with this always in mind.

  2. This community is for ethnic minorities and people of color. This is a safe space where such people can freely discuss their struggles, insight, and thoughts without fear. If you are not, we respectfully ask you do not post or comment here. A future community will be established to allow for racial discussions with a mixed userbase. However, remember, comments here must still respect Lemmy TOS and Community Guidelines.

  3. Irony Racism is still racism. Racism is bad m'kay? We will treat irony racism and bad faith racist satire as racism. Will wield the ban hammer accordingly.

  4. No sectarianism: This is an identity channel not a channel for you all to complain about why XYZ isn't the "one true leftism". Take that to another place.

  5. Stupidpol is not allowed. Stupidpol is class reductionist. We are an identity community. Thinking like stupidpol ignores the struggles of the oppressed, their voices, and their need for unique support. Nothing says oppression more than someone saying that the identity you have is "not real" and that if you only thought like them you'd see what your "real" identity is. Mods reserve the right to ban users and content who promote stupidpol, stupidpol memes, and other class reductionist thinking.

FAQ

Recently, I managed to make some strikingly good gluten-free vegan deli slices using portabella mushrooms.

I don't have any issues with consuming gluten, but I can't use gluten to make vegan deli slices because VWG/seitan is not readily available where I am, and pre-packaged deli slices like Tofurky are expensive, so I started to seek different solutions.

Tofu is alright, especially since it's quite rich in protein, but I still feel like the texture doesn't come close enough.

Once I sliced some portabella mushrooms really damn thin and seasoned them just right, I realized that the texture outcome is perfect. It goes so good on a sandwich, but ya gotta cut it real thin.

Typically, the seasoning I use is:

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp EVOO
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1.5 tsp liquid smoke
  • 2 tbsp agave
  • 2 tsp rice vinegar
  • a pinch of cinnamon

Coat the thin slices in this marinade in a container.

I use the microwave, and I microwave it for a fairly lengthy amount of time (5 minutes) to release the moisture and give it that perfect texture. I put a lid on the container and just crack it slightly.

Would highly recommend! I put nutritional yeast and sriracha on it as a sandwich, and I eat it with BBQ beans and non-mayo coleslaw on the side.
