Veganomicon: The Ultimate Vegan Cookbook Part 133
This recipe makes a "milk" chocolate-style hazelnut spread. For a dark chocolate spread, leave out the soy milk powder. Increase the confectioners' sugar by a tablespoon or two, if desired.
The easiest way to toast hazelnuts: Preheat the oven to 300F. Place the raw hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, until the skins are peeling and the nuts start to smell and appear toasted; be careful not to burn. Remove from the oven. Immediately pour the hot hazelnuts into the center of a large, rough kitchen towel. Twist the ends of the towel tightly around the nuts to form a sack. Agitate the sack vigorously for a few minutes to remove the skins. Some skin might still stick to hazelnuts, but this is okay. Pick the hazelnuts out of the crumbled skins and set aside in a bowl to cool. The quickest way to clean the towel of hazelnut skins is to shake it outside.
If you're using hazelnut oil, try using a little bit of peanut oil in addition to the hazelnut oil. It lends an authentic, full flavor.
This recipe will really give your food processor a workout. Be kind to your machine and use the "pulse" setting, stopping to rest the motor (and sc.r.a.ping the sides of the bowl) frequently.
THE MENUS.
MENUS FOR THE Ma.s.sES.
GENERALLY, WE DON'T like to fuss over planning a big menu. Menu planning should really be cooking what makes sense to you, with foods that are in season and foods that you know your guests enjoy. (Obviously, if your Great-Aunt Frimmie hates broccoli rabe, Thanksgiving may not be the time to try to make her like it!) But sometimes it's useful to have a menu on hand, so in this section we suggest plenty of dishes that go well together. Hosting a dinner party can be stressful for anyone (even certain cookbook authors) and the host is usually worrying the whole time. It can be even more daunting for the vegan host, because we folks have the additional task of representing veganism. It's useful to keep in mind that we are often our own worst critics. But on a more practical level, if you're cooking for a crowd, you should give the dishes that you plan to serve a test run a week or two beforehand; that always helps make the big event go a bit more smoothly.
The following are dishes from this cookbook that make great plates to serve as "whenever meals." Or you can use our additional suggestions to create a multicourse menu for a special occasion.
