How to remove taste from tvp?
Does anyone cook with tvp? I had my first exposure to tvp some time ago with a certain brand of ramen, it didn't really taste like meat but did a good job of adding texture and making the ramen feel like more than just noodles. Since then I've been looking for the raw product to add it to other types of ramen, macaroni etc.
Today i found ground tvp at bulk barn and tried preparing it, it has the exact same texture as ground beef when rehydrated, but the flavor...oh god it's nasty; it tasted like some kind of raw flour.
Next i tried adding beef boullion to the water when rehydrating but that pervading wheaty plant like flavor wont go away and ruins whatever you add the stuff to.
Does anyone know how to prepare the stuff properly without using real meat?
