- Gherkin which are just like mini snobby
what are those things called?
Pickles. - Pickles.
- I like to do - You're doing well today.
- Today on the Edgy Veg, I am going to show you
how to make vegan fondue.
You heard me, the first round of this
when we tested it at home was a complete fail
but I perfected it and I think you'll
really, really, really, really like it 'cause it's fun.
Now you'll get to host your own fondue parties.
(rock music)
The base of our fondue is going to be potatoes and rice.
I know that sounds really weird
but did you know that when you blend up rice
it has like this smooth creamy consistency?
Just trust me, I'm a professional.
I would never lie to you.
This is going to work, hopefully.
First thing we're gonna do is
heat up some olive oil in a large pan
and add some onions and some garlic
and cook that until translucent.
It's like three minutes.
Now that our onions and garlic are translucent,
we are going to add short grain rice, white rice,
don't use brown rice, brown rice will not work for this.
Then our cashews, the key here is cream.
All of these ingredients blend up really nice
to be like a creamy consistency.
And then some water, bouillon cubes
for a nice salty flavor because cheese is very salty.
And then we are going to add potatoes.
And we're just gonna cook that for about 30 minutes on high.
Or until the potatoes are soft, it's up to you.
Are you having fun, 'cause we're making fundue.
(boos)
Some fundue, for mondue day.
Now that our potato mixture is cooked,
we are going to blend it all in a high speed blender.
If you don't have a blender with the high speed motor,
it'll just take longer.
To out blended potatoes, we are going to add
tapioca starch.
Now you might be like, I can't find tapioca starch
in my normal grocery store.
Go to a health food store and get it there
because potato starch won't do the same things.
And corn starch won't either, so get tapioca starch.
Add white wine vinegar and then sour kraut water
which sounds really weird.
But it helps give that fermented cheese flavor
so don't skip this.
And then add nutritional yeast,
salt, meso paste,
and mustard powder and blend it up.
Because of my little mishap,
falling off the counter over
the holidays doing counter acrobatics,
I'm not longer allowed to have sharp objects
or be in charge of fire or stand on the counter anymore.
So James is gonna light our fondue thing.
- Safety first.
Here we go.
Fire.
- Fire.
- Try not to set your house on fire.
- Now that it's lit,
lit A F, we are going to add the cheese that we just made.
Oh, cheesy.
Now we're going to add three tablespoons
of Kirsch Schnapps, that has a cork in it.
Try this again.
Then about half a cup of dry wine.
It's starting to bubble.
There's all kinds of fun things
that you can dip in your fondue.
Traditionally of course, there's bread.
But also you can do Granny Smith apples
because they're very tart so
they go really well with cheese.
I also like to do mini roasted potatoes
and then of course you need something
that's like super salty.
So I like to do a mini gherkins or pickled onions.
You can dip anything in there really.
Anything that goes well with cheese,
you can put in your fondue.
(upbeat music)
Okay,
well you're clearly very excited to try this.
- I'm definitely excited.
- 'Cause you're all up in my personal space here.
- Fondue forks at the ready.
- What if I don't wanna burn my mouth?
It's hot cheese.
- Blow on it like everybody else.
- Like a normal person?
Mmm.
- Oh yeah.
- Yeah?
Are you having fun?
- When is this joke gonna die?
- Alright guys, there you have it.
Easy vegan fondue that you can make at home
and like throw a fondue party.
Those are so much fun- due.
