    Amazing to see how you grew from these simple recipes to what you are doing today! Also surprised to see that your blog wasn’t completely vegan (” add egg”-optional). Anyways, cooked this for dinner yesterday and was a bit plain without any spices.

      Its surprising to see a comment on the old posts. 2009 was the transition year to a vegan diet for us, so the blog was slowly transitioning then as well. I think the old recipes also arent necessarily accurate. I must have used a lot more soy sauce and garlic in this :). I havent removed them from the blog to redo some of the ideas as fresher improved posts.
