Daikon “Bacon”

This recipe is from Sauce Stache on YouTube...subscribe to his channel, he does amazing vegan things!!
This is a little salty and doesn't have the chewiness of bacon but it does have a similar taste and crunchiness to it. On its own it's a bit salty for me but in a BLT...Oh Mama!!


Daikon "Bacon

Ingredients

1 Daikon radish

Bacon Flavor Recipe; 1/3 Cup soy sauce 2 Tbls Light Oil* 2 Tbls Nutritional Yeast* 1 Tsp MSG* 1 Tbls Liquid Smoke 1 Tbls Maple Syrup Pinch of Paprika Ground Black Pepper to taste Pinch of Garlic Powder


Method

Add all your marinade ingredients into a bowl and whisk well.
Pour into a container large enough for your slices to all marinade well and set aside.


Using a peeler or mandoline slice down lengthwise to get long wide strips of daikon.
Continue until you can't get anymore...one daikon will give you plenty!


Sidebar: How pretty are these spotted ones!!


Sauce Stache says to lay all your strips out on a paper/kitchen towel and remove the excess liquid. I've done this and also skipped the step and they still turned out the same to me so I skipped it this time :)

Place all your strips in your marinade and give them a little massage. Let sit in marinade for at least ten minutes, more if you have the time.


Heat a non-stick pan on medium and add a tablespoon of oil. I like coconut oil (the base of the famous Vegan Bacon Grease). Once heated add your strips of daikon in batches turning after a minute or so, once the edges start going dark and curling.


Place on some paper towel to soak up the extra grease and serve!! I LOVE me a vegan BLT!
