VEGAN OKONOMIYAKI: Classic VS Whole Food (What's the difference?)

[@ultra1000]

yo ngl, this is low key one of the best vegan cooking channels out there that everyone is sleeping on. your shit always looks fire, and major props for doing the fatty versions vs healthy versions!

[@LeroyVGANG]

thanks buddy my dude. I'll take the huge compliment (it means a lot to me) but I'll also take any comment roasting my shit so that I can improve and make better, more entertaining content.

No kiddin, most vegan food is CRAP (Calorie Rich And Processed) so it's beyond amazing he not only satisfies our tastebuds for delicious foods, but nourishes us as well!

funnel is a good investment 😂

Hey man really love your videos :) May I ask what kind of gear you use? I'm really interested in the high quality videos you constantly achieve!

[@LeroyVGANG]

thanks ahmed. I've made a pretty in-depth video explaining how I shoot my videos here kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3_XgWNsnq-Sbs0 I've since gotten a few extra gear and upgrades though. But the essence to my style of videos is the knowledge of lighting ("cinematic lighting"), blocking (movement), shooting with the edit in mind and working with the camera settings (aperture, lens choice, fps, etc) in achieving the type of look that I want. There's no shortcut to learning all these things - It took me a full year of constant learning, trial and error to get to this point. My older videos all sucked big time (I think I still suck now but I guess now I suck less lol).

[@ahmedaljaff5981]

@@LeroyVGANG Thanks a lot for the answer ! I can def see that this level of video won't be achieved in a day :) Will def check the video out, appreciate it. Keep up the hard work, I hope one day you're channel will make it big !

[@bodyofalegend]

I’d like to promote the benefits of a plant based diet on my KZbin channel one day. This is great learning for me! Thanks 😊

[@cechgyt8336]

Thank you for the recipe ! I have tried it, it’s nice however it feels impossible to have the inside of the pancake cooked enough which means not soggy. Do you have any tips for that ? I think I encounter the same issue when I used defatted hazelnut flour to make pancake. So it might be linked to those kind of flour. Thank you for your help !

[@kenz5713]

orange juice, marmite and pumpkin spice, this is probably the only recipe since the beginning of time and until the end of humanity where those three things will go well together.

[@LeroyVGANG]

huh..now that u've pointed it out, it does sound like something only a madman would put together...or well..the Japanese person who invented the sauce.

[@mamalientje8684]

What did you use in the batter?🤔

[@shlomr]

hmmm, for a bonito substitute, i wonder if you couldnt just shave some dried shiitake? similar umami profile, maybe theres another dried food im not thinking of that would sub better~

[@LeroyVGANG]

yeah, there's absolutely a suitable katsuobushi replacement, but it'll require a lot of work. Shaving dried shiitake straight up wouldn't work: 1. Can't eat raw shiitake (contains mild carcinogens). 2. It's probably too woody and tough to shave. An option would be to cook it then preserve it like how katsuobushi is made which is a lengthy process. Another problem with that is that dried shiitake has very little surface area to yield a good amount of shavings. I'm thinking king oyster would be a better route to take.

[@shlomr]

@@LeroyVGANG wait. I've eaten a lot of dried shiitake, fuck The oyster mushroom idea is really good, are they commercially available? if not, maybe a smoking-drying process could be managed that would help mimic the flavor

[@menisk5812]

What got you in to veganism?

[@LeroyVGANG]

Watching animals thrash about when they get gassed and their throats slit.
