The Basic Vegetarian PantryWhat do you stock your cupboards with when you become a vegetarian? Here are some basics. Grains & Cereals Whole-grain breads brown rice rolled oats whole grain cold cereal (such as shredded wheat) bulgur wheat whole wheat flour whole grain corn meal wheat gluten Legumes & Nuts dried beans (kidney, navy, Great Northern, black beans, etc.) lentils garbanzos (also known as chickpeas) cashews walnuts unsweetened shredded coconut sunflower seeds Fruit fruit canned in water or juice dried fruit (dates, figs, raisins, etc.) bottled lemon juice Vegetables frozen: peas, corn, broccoli, mixed vegetables, stir-fry vegetables canned: green beans, asparagus, pimento, mushrooms, olives canned tomato: pureed, whole, paste onions potatoes Staples tofu (regular and silken, soft and firm)* pasta (semolina, whole wheat, buckwheat, whatever your favorite) carob powder soy milk (carton or powder) soy sauce Kitchen Bouquet® cornstarch, arrowroot powder, or tapioca or potato starch honey or some other form of sweetening vanilla and other seasonings nutritional yeast flakes Seasonings vanilla granulated onion powder granulated garlic powder domestic paprika (vs. Hungarian paprika which is hot) Italian seasoning coriander honey Note about tofu: Silken tofu is made in the box and sealed. It can be kept on a shelf in a cool place and will keep for a long time. Silken tofu is smoother than regular tofu. Regular tofu comes packed in water in a container and must be kept refrigerator. It is recommended that the water be changed every day. This tofu does not keep as long as silken tofu.

A Vegetarian DictionaryLacto-ovo vegetarian— uses dairy products and eggs, but eats no flesh food. (People who eat no red meat but continue to eat fish and fowl are sometimes incorrectly called vegetarians.) Vegan vegetarian— uses no animal products, fish, fowl, red meat, dairy or eggs. Diet consists of fruits, grains, legumes, nuts, and vegetables. Sometimes called a total vegetarian. Tofu— soy bean curd. It is a good source of protein. It comes in two varieties; regular in 1 pound blocks and silken in 12 ounce boxes. Both varieties come in soft and firm. It is available in most grocery stores in the produce section. Regular tofu comes packed in water. It must be kept refrigerated and the water should be changed every day. Silken tofu is sealed in a box and should be kept in a cool place but does not need to be refrigerated. Food or Nutritional Yeast Flakes — a mild tasting yellow flaking powder grown on molasses, then processed to deactivate its fermentation qualities. It is a good source of the B vitamins. It is not to be confused with brewer's yeast which is grown on alcoholic beverages during the brewing process and has a strong flavor. Cardamom— a seed that can be ground and used as a substitute for cinnamon. It is widely used in Indian cooking. Soy Milk— a nutritious milk made from soybeans. It can be found in liquid form in many grocery stores. Westsoy and Eden Soy are two well-known brands. Some soy milks can be bought in powder form. Of these, some are made directly from the soybean and some from tofu. Some tofu milks contain caseinate, the protein in cow's milk. Because tofu milks are already cultured, they are unsuitable for some of the recipes in this booklet. Soy milk powder made from uncultured beans works best, but these must often be ordered as they are not readily available from health food stores. Carob— comes from the pods of the Mediterranean locust tree. When dried, roasted and ground, it resembles cocoa in appearance, color, and flavor. Carob has none of the drawbacks of cocoa and chocolate which contain the stimulants caffeine and theobromine. It requires less sugar when used in desserts. Soy Sauce Powder— made from soy beans but has not been fermented. It is similar to Bragg's Aminos and tastes like soy sauce. Meat Analogs— soy and/or wheat gluten products made to resemble various kinds of meats in texture, appearance, and flavor; they are often called meat substitutes. Examples: Morning Star Farms Better ‘N Burgers, Loma Linda Big Franks, or Boca Burgers.
