#Dairy Free

[wynn-in-the-willows]

Coconut eggnog is pretty good. All you really need is coconut milk and nutmeg. I used to use 1/2 caned high fat coconut milk, 1/2 coconut milk beverage from the milk department. Add some rum and you have a creamy festive holiday beverage. Add some brandy and a merichino cherry and you have an amazing brandy alexander.

Substitutions can actually work really well once you really learn your ingredients, but it will never be exactly the same thing. A Thai style coconut custard made with tapioca is really amazing in it's own right, and can be made vegan. I've heard silken tofu can be great in things when you need a creamy custardy base, but you have to get the balance of protein and fat right. A chocolate ice cream base made with black beans and coconut milk is amazing.

It takes practice and creativity, an in depth understanding of how alternative ingredients work, and a total lack of inhibitions when it comes to adding oil and salt and you can make some really amazing foods. It really helps to start with recipes that are naturally free of whatever you need them to be free of, and once you're comfortable with those, try making alternatives and substitutions.

Just never go to a regular restaurant, chef or cook looking for these things. Look for places that serve things naturally free of whatever you're avoiding, and target places that specialize in whatever your constraints may be. There's plenty of dairy free, egg free, or gluten free recipes online. Watch cooking videos to get a feel for what other people do. You got this.

These tender vegan cinnamon rolls are bursting with ooey-gooey spiced filling and smothered in sweet vanilla glaze. Perfect with a cup of tea! The best part? The buns can be assembled a day in advance and then popped in the oven just before serving.

kinda crazy that some people’s idea of accommodating dietary restrictions is to just. feed you a salad. for every meal.
