Out of fresh cabbage for okonomiyaki? Not a problem! We made it with a mixture of home fermented kimchi and sauerkraut instead. AND we used some chickpea flour we milled on-board a few days ago.

Think we’re going to do this again. It was excellent ^______^.

@nf Chickpea flour, binds all things well enough. When in Japan I would use nagaimo too in it too~ I miss that.

@rek generally, the more we improvise with food, the more obvious food groups become and that like, gluten is gluten, wherever it comes from, so is protein and starch, and if you're not nitpicky about macros, things are just.. interchangeable! Like Lego but as food. it's fun to discover new proteins and sources of nutrients, especially when they come in compact long lasting form haha

@nomand Chickpeas are very good lego blocks. So versatile.

@rek we've made a good discovery about red lentils! it's useless to try and keep them chewy and whole. it's much better to reduce them to a paste! then you can use it to bind stuff and make patties or dillute with vege stock or coconut milk to make sauces!

@rek ooo, tasty! I'd like to try that chickpea flour point you made elsewhere on this thread :>

also using kimchi reminds me of a late-night cooking video j kenji lopez alt made a while ago, about making a korean kimchi pancake called kimchijeon (youtube.com/watch?v=ku5hgZgGDj)
