Isizukulwane esisha sama-veggie burgers sihlose ukufaka esikhundleni senyama yenkomo yoqobo ngenyama mbumbulu noma imifino emisha.Ukuze sithole ukuthi benza kahle kangakanani, siye sazwakalisa ngokungaboni ngaso linye kwabayisithupha abaqhudelanayo abaphambili.Ibhalwe nguJulia Moskin.
Eminyakeni emibili nje, ubuchwepheshe bokudla sebushukumise abathengi ukuthi basuke ekuphequluleni ama-wan “veggie patties” endaweni eqandisiwe bakhetha “amabhega ezitshalo” amasha athengiswa eduze kwenyama yenkomo.
Ngemuva kwesitolo esikhulu, kuliwa izimpi ezinkulu: Abakhiqizi benyama bamangalela ukuthi amagama athi “inyama” kanye “nebhega” abekwe emikhiqizweni yabo kuphela.Abenzi bezinye izinhlobo zenyama njenge-Beyond Meat kanye ne-Impossible Foods balwela ukubamba imakethe yokudla okusheshayo emhlabeni wonke, njengoba abadlali abakhulu abafana noTyson noPerdue bengenela lo mbango.Ososayensi bezemvelo nokudla bayaphikelela ukuthi sidle izitshalo eziningi futhi sinciphise ukudla okugayiwe.Abantu abaningi abadla imifino nabadla inyama bathi inhloso wukugqashula umkhuba wokudla inyama, hhayi ukuphakela abantu abangabazali.
“Ngisancamela ukudla into engakhuliswanga elebhu,” kusho u-Isa Chandra Moskowitz, umpheki endaweni yokudlela yemifino iModern Love e-Omaha, lapho ibhega yakhe iyisidlo esidume kakhulu kwimenyu."Kodwa kungcono ukuthi abantu kanye nomhlaba badle enye yalawo mabhega esikhundleni senyama nsuku zonke, uma bezokwenza lokho."
Imikhiqizo emisha “yenyama” yekesi yesiqandisi isivele yakha ingxenye ekhula ngokushesha embonini yokudla.
Ezinye zisezingeni eliphezulu ngokuziqhenya, zihlanganiswe ngenqwaba yezitashi, amafutha, usawoti, izinto ezinoshukela kanye namaphrotheni okwenziwa umami-rich.Zenziwe zaba nokwenzeka ngobuchwepheshe obusha, ngokwesibonelo, uwoyela kakhukhunathi nebhotela likakhokho zibe ama-globule amancane amafutha amhlophe anikeza i-Beyond Burger ukubukeka okumabula kwenyama yenkomo egayiwe.
Ezinye zilula ngokuqinile, zisuselwe kokusanhlamvu nemifino, futhi zakhiwe kabusha ngezithako ezifana ne-yeast extract kanye ne-barley malt ukuze zibe crustier, zibe nsundu futhi zibe juicier kunezandulela zazo ze-veggie-burger eziqandisiwe.(Abanye abathengi bayayifulathela leyo mikhiqizo ejwayelekile, hhayi nje ngenxa yokunambitheka, kodwa ngoba ngokuvamile yenziwa ngezithako ezicutshungulwe kakhulu.)
Kodwa basebenza kanjani bonke abasanda kufika etafuleni?
Umgxeki we-Times restaurant u-Pete Wells, umlobi wethu wokupheka uMelissa Clark kanye nami saklelisa zombili izinhlobo zamabhega e-vegan amasha ukuze sinambithwe ngokungaboni imikhiqizo yezwe eyisithupha.Yize abantu abaningi sebevele bawanambitha lawa mabhega ezindaweni zokudlela, besifuna ukuphindaphinda okwenziwa ngumpheki wasekhaya.(Ukuze sifeze lokho, mina noMelissa sabamba amadodakazi ethu: umuntu wami odla imifino oneminyaka engu-12 kanye nomthandi wakhe we-burger oneminyaka engu-11 ubudala.)
Ibhega ngalinye lishiswe ngethisipuni lamafutha e-canola esitokisini esishisayo, futhi liphakwe ebhanini lamazambane.Siqale sawanambitha kalula, sabe sesilayisha izintandokazi zethu phakathi kwe-toppings yakudala: i-ketchup, isinaphi, imayonnaise, ukhukhamba noshizi waseMelika.Nansi imiphumela, esikalini sokulinganisa senkanyezi eyodwa kuya kwezinhlanu.
