Vegan Effect

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 25th of October 2021 If you are a Trekkie, you should have a look at this.  I veganised a whole Klingon feast!  This has got really good food ideas that I still use today, so if you are a vegan and looking for a bit of Star Trek fun or food ideas for your Trekkie party, look no further because this is it! Abstract After watching many episodes of Star Trek i decided to investigate and try to make an authentic Klingon dinner.  However, since i am a vegan and cater for a Christian vegan audience, i had to consider appropriate constraints such as no meat, eggs or dairy and try to keep it healthy too.  With this in mind, i wondered if it was at all possible to create such a meal.  I searched the internet looking for suitable resources and found them although the sources where limited.  Despite the lack of suitable sites, the ones i did find where very helpful.  For instance, i discovered several Klingon dishes and even a vegetable one called Gladst, As

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 27th of September 2021  Abstract  Fish and chips is a dish that many vegans say they miss, so i decided to make a vegan battered fish that was fun to eat.  In the past I have tried making vegan fish with banana blossom, but did not get overwhelming positive feedback. Even I thought it was lacking in something too!  In response to this, I decided to change the recipe a little and use tofu instead of banana blossom.   I decided to stick with most of the recipe and followed the same method as in the last report.  This worked out fine although the tofu fish, let us call it tofish, was a little thick and would have been better as a thinner slice.  The batter was great though and all things considered it was better than the banana blossom fish.  If I was going to do this again, I would cut a thinner slice of tofu and shape it to look a little bit more like fish.  Index Introduction   Literature search   Procedure Results (This has the finished recipe

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 27th of August 2021 Abstract After browsing the internet looking for ideas of what to make next, I started to notice people talking about banana blossom and using it to make vegan battered fish and chips.  At first, I was reluctant to try it because of the frying aspect, but I liked the sound of this so decided to have a go at making this dish myself. However, I have never made batter before let alone battered banana blossom.  With this in mind, I decided to solve this problem by researching it online and in the library.  My intention was to compare different recipes for batter, battered fish and battered banana blossom in order to create a new recipe that was low in fat and completely vegan.  Subsequently, I chose to go with the shallow fry option to keep the flavour but reduce the fat.   In order to complete the project, I run tests on the batter to ensure its success, which was a great idea in solving the lack of experience in making batter.  Pra

Abstract In recent years, I have found myself drawn towards an idea of reducing my waste to zero for environmental reasons but was not sure what to do.  The problem of household waste is that much of it might end up in land fill and create problems for the environment, which prompted me to investigate deeper and find out if it was easy and was it realistically possible?  I started off by searching the internet for clues and literature that could help because I needed a place to start and thought this is the best way.  First, I s
