I Tried Making YouTuber Vegan SALMON Recipes (Do they actually taste like fish?!) | Vegan Taste Test

In today's video I tried making a bunch of different KZbinr vegan salmon recipes to see which taste like actual fish. Today we are testing the highly request Sam from It Doesn't Taste Like Chicken and Lisa from Okonomi Kitchen recipes...with both being incredibly different. Do we love?
Try Lisa's recipe: okonomikitchen...

I have to ask which KZbinr recipes should we taste test next?

[@shelleyk92]

You should try a challenge like in British bake off where you are told a general idea of what goes in to the recipe, but you need to guess how much and what technique you are supposed to use lol. But to answer your question... Do lauren Toyota and Liv b . They both just came out with cook books 🥰

[@laurenwilliams2558]

Try a recipe from Make It Dairy Free or The Viet Vegan

[@Crystal_m11]

Monson made this, minimalist Baker, the korean vegan, vegan richa

[@robertornelas6592]

I don’t see a lot of Mexican food on your channel, so maybe something from Airams vegan vida 😊

[@sabrinatatalias4277]

Collard greens (without meat) but to get the sweet and smoky flavor

[@Itdoesnttastelikechicken]

Thanks for trying my recipe, so happy you loved it! And I hope you get your smell back soon- the marinade smells very fishy! haha

[@EdgyVeg]

Thanks for creating this recipe Sam! We loved it!

[@ineznazer2453]

Thank you Sam for this great recipe. I cant wait to try it out myself. My mouth was watering for how good thats fillets loooks so real😅 😋!! Much love from South Africa🌍🌱💚

[@4themotherload]

The Vegan culinary community is truly epic. The techniques and flavour profiles , so much to chose from and learn. Thank you for sharing🥂

[@EdgyVeg]

these are two perfect examples of this!

[@aquakittykat]

Using metal tools on a Teflon pan…. I’m dying a little inside.

[@AimeeColeman]

Beancurd is just another name for tofu, it doesn't specifically refer to the dried sticks. The dried sticks are just called dried tofu/beancurd sticks or dried tofu/beancurd skin. :)

[@TheFall0fSummer]

The recipe specifically says to use both tofu and bean curd sticks. :)

[@theresamnsota3925]

I'm not a big fish person either, so this is interesting. You and Sam are probably my two fave vegan cooking channels on KZbin.

[@EdgyVeg]

These were really tasty! Sam makes great recipes!

[@margarett_b]

15:26 Wow, Sam's salmon looked absolutely INSANE! I am definitely combining the two ideas and making this with a teriyaki glaze my mum used to make :D Thank you for the inspiration!

[@EdgyVeg]

I hope you enjoy it!

[@Itdoesnttastelikechicken]

Thank you!

[@melodeekielich]

Was it a reduced balsamic vinegar and agave, red pepper flakes, coconut aminos I think ..and on the stove ? I made some before and daughters loved it..I cant remember this one it was so good on salmon..

[@maxshinske9778]

I tried Sam’s a few weeks ago and marinated it for 2 days and it was much better. The inside also doesn’t fully get marinated, so it’s good to take a turkey baster and suck the liquid and squeeze it all over inside to get it fully marinated. I also added way more nori and when I cooked it, adding some of the marinating liquid helps it a lot too!

[@EdgyVeg]

Thanks for the tips!

[@Itdoesnttastelikechicken]

If you gently separate the slices of tofu when in the marinade, it will help the marinade get in all the nooks and crannies :)

[@hairnerd86]

That one with the bean curd stuff looks like salmon cakes. I used to love those! The other one looks so much like salmon! Both look great!

[@EdgyVeg]

They were so good!

[@shy.kumquat]

why was I so startled by the black lace gloves 😭

[@georgiesalvo3767]

Me too! For a moment I wondered if this was about to become a very "adult" cooking lesson!

[@grownupgoth]

kinky kitchen

[@jackiefehr-krahn881]

I tried the It Doesn’t Taste Like Chicken recipe a couple weeks ago, to veganize Moxie’s Salmon Cobb Salad (for a virtual cooking class), and my husband & I were amazed at how good the “salmon” turned out! I marinated it overnight FTW 🏆

[@EdgyVeg]

It's so good

[@steviemack6969]

I seriously adore you! I just want to sit in your kitchen with a glass of champagne and learn....oh..AND EAT!

[@EdgyVeg]

Thank you!!

[@moonthego]

Thanks so much! I found the Okonomi site hard to follow with things like what to do with the Ngaimo yam and how to dehydrate the yuba stick. This didn't explain that but seeing it helped me make sense of things! Also didn't notice the nails until attention was brought to them!

[@EdgyVeg]

Glad it was helpful!

[@raquels.1091]

I learned about the edgy veg through a bunch of other vegan youtubers like Mina Rome, Merle O'Neall and Sauce Stache since they kept mentioning your recipes. So I decided to finally check their most quoted youtuber and here I am, LOVING IT and loving the fresh honesty and 'edgy' charm that you bring to every video! PS: WHY DO YOU LOOK SO MUCH LIKE KATHRYN HAHN? 😂

[@EdgyVeg]

Thanks for watching!

[@maxandmedw1223]

Thank you for having this channel. Preparing the meals and taste testing really helps. I am interested in cheeses. We make Sam's (it doesn't take like chicken) mozzarella...it is delicious. And now I want to try making a Swiss cheese. Can you have a video of the two?

[@EdgyVeg]

great suggestion! I'll see what I can do!

[@lizg2153]

Love this!! Thank you for testing them out! 🤍 Lisa always has a video direction on her Instagram, which might be useful for the nitty-gritties! Side note: Why do the gloves give me anxiety 😅

[@margarett_b]

3:50 I absolutely love this chopstick idea! I have seen people making slices and putting them together with skewers but this is so much better :D

[@EdgyVeg]

It really helps to keep things in place

[@jeffreyrafuse6950]

I don't crave meat.. but I did love fish big time.. I didn't eat meat for 4 years in 5 years now.. just miss local perch it's my family tradition.. so, if I was going to look for a vegan meat/fish way it would be looking for that light sweet tender taste 💕 hope you're having a wonderful day 🌼💫

[@EdgyVeg]

I hope this helps!

[@tammyvanholst6913]

I always say since going vegan that seafood is the only thing I miss. I can't wait to try these recipes!! they look so yummy and with your stamp of approval, there's nothing to wait for!

[@EdgyVeg]

They're so good!

[@karlamarx5954]

SAME!! TY Candace! 😋😍🌱💪

[@RyanThomasWoods]

These both look really good😍 I don’t have an Asian grocery store in my small rural town but I think I could get all the ingredients for Sam’s recipe

[@EdgyVeg]

You'll definitely be able to find the ingredients for Sam's

[@pinnedcomment8614]

fun fact of the day - The last letter added to the English alphabet wasn't Z - it was the letter J.

[@MayorBrownn]

okay then call me oseph

[@SageMacBunny]

Thank you so much for linking recipes this time!

[@EdgyVeg]

Please give their pages some love!

[@ireneschuurman3655]

Love these try out videos! I have been meaning to try out Sam's recipe also, but was not sure of the flavour as I was never a big fan of seafood. However my partner liked salmon, so I will try it! Maybe I will just half the recipe, but will definitely marinate it over night as you suggest. Thank you! Looking forward to a new try out and tasting video!

[@EdgyVeg]

Hope you enjoy!

[@strawberrysoymilkshake]

Oh wow! I am definitely going to be trying this salmon filet. How cool.

[@EdgyVeg]

You should!

[@Boundlessdestinations]

Both of these recipes look so delicious 🤤 Love this video 🙌🏼

[@EdgyVeg]

They are so good

[@jonnap9041]

Looks great! Thanks for sharing. Def miss seafood. 😍

[@EdgyVeg]

these are great options!

[@kristawalker2130]

the lace gloves are everything!!!! xo

[@ineznazer2453]

Thank you Candice for this test run. I could almost taste that salmon 😅😋!! I think these recipes are awesome. I use to love fish..it was the hardest thing i need to part from compare to eggs. I grow up eating alot of fish...as we live on the east coast of South Africa. Nevertheless i can't wait to use these great tips and turn it into something magical 🌟!! Much love from South Africa🌍💚🌱😘😘😘❤❤❤❤

[@EdgyVeg]

Thank you!

[@Shuggies]

I am GOING to try both... I can totally. See these working well.. plus. I LOVE the cake version also which I juuuust made a pretty bomb Vital Wheat Gluten meat that I experimentally made w the soy skin Knots that I soaked and added to it for texture. I had never seen it done but I do it see working for a fish. Pretty stoked about trying the same thing for the patties.. NOTE.. I have also started adding minimum 2 Tbs of white vinegar to the Liquids portion of the Gluten meat recipe which has TOTALLY knocked the Wangk flavor of the Gluten out of the finished ""meats"" and leaves no sign of it behind 🥰👌 pretty proud of myself.. I'm telling everyone about it cause they also hate that flavor... Lol. On another note ... use white vinegar on the last wash of Butler Soy Curls because of the Wang in them also.. I soak and rinse and squeeze in water several times to get all the oil in them out and there IZZZZ alot of oil... then the last rinse I use vinegar soak a few mins and squeeze one last time.. its a process but totally worth it !!) I'd love for you to try it and tell the world so people have more variety and truely love the VWG and Soy Curls world of food.. Thanks for sharing what you learn. I'm loving your channel and subbed ☺👍👍👍👍👍

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Great vegan salmon recipes Candice and I would try both. Love🥰 the video and love💕💕 you and Molly.

[@EdgyVeg]

Thank you for the love!

[@saraatppkdotpt8140]

I always get inspired by watching you cooking!

[@EdgyVeg]

That's so sweet!

[@chapman1569]

Kudos for this review! Well done. Thanks

[@EdgyVeg]

Glad it was helpful!

[@completely_me75]

Love the hair😍😍and I can't wait to try these recipes. So bomb🔥

[@halimapeterson2677]

Excited

[@margarett_b]

Honestly, this hair color is bomb! I was wondering whether you use normal hair dyes or henna? It is so great for having red/ginger hair and really nourishing them at the same time so if not, definitely worth exploring since this hairstyle really suits you!

[@EdgyVeg]

I always go to my hair stylist for my colour, but thanks for the suggestion!

[@DasZuckerhaus]

i lowkey love that youre doing a taste test when ur sensory abilities are still covid impaired

[@EdgyVeg]

The show must go on! Haha 😂 i miss nuance in food 😂

[@ZophieWithAZee]

your hair colour is *amazing* 😍

[@s0exclusive]

pretty certain it's a wig

[@ZophieWithAZee]

@@s0exclusive Probably, but it’s still amazing

[@Notnoraiam]

Will definitely be trying these recipes!

[@EdgyVeg]

You should!

[@soumyasharma832]

Genuinely curious since I’m somewhat new to this channel, what’s up with the black lace gloves? Is the there a back story or reason or just for fun?

[@jelatinosa]

It is definitely weird. I've never seen that on her channel before. 😬

[@halimapeterson2677]

Thanks for doing this video

[@EdgyVeg]

My pleasure!

[@0490vanes]

Either nacho cheese or cream cheese :)

[@bugbean5500]

Seen your recipe and tried it out. Sam´s recipe is already in the fridge for tomorrow :-)

[@EdgyVeg]

Let me know how it goes!

[@traceypoaps6048]

So trying these!!

[@b.a.mcclucky]

HAHA, your nails comment. I was wondering why you were using gloves for the close ups. I am a nail biter so I keep acrylic nails on and I feel your pain. X-D

[@EdgyVeg]

I didn't have the time to soak them off properly!

[@injunsun]

To Omnis who imagine Vegan food is always simple and bland... "🙄" Meanwhile, I've been using mainly faux ground beef, adding in minced onions, peppers, sometimes garlic, sometimes seasonings, or bbq sauce, etc., broiling on low for about 25 minutes first side, 15-20 second side, with various kinds of veg around them, to absorb their cooking juices. Whether broccoli, or tater tots, it's all good. My dad's "teriyaki burgers" were ground beef, minced onion, and rice, cooked over a charcoal grill, some slathered with bbq sauce to caramelise, half plain, to be done on a bun with just ketchup, mustard, lettuce, tomato, and fresh onion rings. I haven't attempted that yet, honestly, because I am afraid I'll end up crying. I miss my dad and sister. Anyway, thanks, Candace, for showing off your skills, and inspiring us all. You remind me of my sister. That's a compliment. Shit. Now I'm tearing up. Bye for now.

[@breathedarlingokay]

reading this comment i was really , really hoping your dad and sister maybe just live far away or something 😥 regardless, im wishing you happiness, truly

[@irisvane6431]

I would like to see you try something from wicked kitchen.

[@EdgyVeg]

Great suggestion! I'll add it to the list!

[@RC2214]

They don't sell the bean curd where I live, Ia there a substitute I can use for that?

[@lashaa5]

Chicken and dumplings or shrimp pasta

[@ellekim2617]

I absolutely love the dress you are wearing in this video!!

[@CookingSecretsForMen]

Very nice!!💥😎👍👌

[@raven7835]

I had covid a few months ago and still can barely smell lol

[@King-ll1py]

Did your senses ever return to normal state? currently experiencing the same thing

[@kellygrothe]

okkkk with the gloves

[@Burningtreeblood]

Nice hair girl 👍🏽

[@EdgyVeg]

Thanks

[@Justa25000]

why u are always shows food wearing gloves?

[@TheCotzi]

bevor i went vegetarian and then vegan i loved eating everything out of the sea

[@EdgyVeg]

These are really good replacements for classic salmon recipes

[@TheCotzi]

@@EdgyVeg Vegan ZeaStar is my replacement for sushi it tastes and looks so real

[@emilygonzalez8773]

I’m fucking LOVING the orange hair

[@EdgyVeg]

thanks!

[@Sabyokolioh]

[@MayorBrownn]

Didn’t eat fish before I was vegan either. Taste awful.

[@k8yfly508]

the one thats made of a whole piece of tofu looks more like spam

[@damanichildrey84]

OMG, just cook a piece of fish. You won't get in trouble or go to hell.

[@EdgyVeg]

I dont eat fish I eat vegetables

[@lorikirsteins9201]

Seriously please put some clothes on the co-host

[@EdgyVeg]

I am a firm believer that everyone is entitled to wear whatever they want that makes them feel comfortable, confident, or just because they want to. Please respect that, and don’t body shame.

[@xxxtaylor27xxx]

Ummm she looks gorg and I love her outfit!

[@EdgyVeg]

@@xxxtaylor27xxx right?! A stunning human inside and out !

[@kallisi7625]

She’s wearing a tank top and joggers, what’s wrong with you?

[@MonkeyLuv127]

Two great recipes from the Edgy Veg and your takeaway is the clothing? Mind your business. You don't get to tell someone how to dress.

[@valentinaflowers8846]

oh no, Sam hates when she’s called “Samantha”

[@EdgyVeg]

Sorry Sam! my bad!

[@Itdoesnttastelikechicken]

Haha, this is true!
