Instructions

Soy Curls

  • Put the soy curls into a bowl of warm water to hydrate for 7-8 minutes.
  • Drain, and press out as much water as possible. One way is to put them in a clean dishtowel then wrap & squeeze. Or a fine-mesh strainer, and press.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook them for about 5 minutes to dry them out.
  • Add the broth, Worcestershire, and browning sauce, and cook until the liquid has reduced and they are dark brown color. Set aside.

Mushroom burgundy – instant pot

  • Set the IP to sauté and add the onion, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring to mix.
  • Add the wine and cook a few minutes to cook out the alcohol.
  • Add the carrots, celery, and thyme, and mix. Add the soy sauce, tomato paste, miso, mushroom powder, bay leaves, and water. Add the soy curls.
  • Pressure cook (manual, high) for 3 minutes; quick release.
  • Put the pot on sauté, and add the cornstarch slurry and greens. Stir until it thickens. Taste for salt.

Notes

Traditionally – serve over mashed potatoes. Also fine with rice!
