Vegan Richa's Instant Pot Fried Rice

Vegan Richa's Instant Pot Fried Rice

20 min

Fried rice is an easy satisfying meal and using an Instant Pot makes it even easier for days when we are short on time. It is also a great way to use up any leftover vegetables. Richa's recipe is a good "basic" fried rice recipe that allows for creativity with spices and ingredients. Tofu mimics the egg, and the "eggy" flavor comes from a secret ingredient- Kala Namak- also known as Black Salt. This complex mineral compound has a rich sulfur content that blooms when cooked into a delicious umami flavor.Richa Hingle is a longtime World Spice Merchants customer, as well as a prolific and award winning recipe developer, blogger, and photographer based here in Seattle.

Nigella Caesar Dressing

Nigella Caesar Dressing

This genius twist on Caesar dressing is a snap to make and boasts all the flavors in a classic Caesar. The twist? We've managed to make it vegan and low cholesterol with a little spice magic. Worcestershire powder is the umami bomb instead of the traditional anchovy, and black salt with its slightly sulfurous taste opts in for the egg. This recipe makes about a half quart. It keeps well in the refrigerator and can be used for Caesar salad or a flavorful marinade for chicken or fish. Of course it wouldn't be a Caesar without the croutons so we've included a suggestion for those too. Happy Salad Season! This recipe was so delicious we added it to our permanent inventory. Now you can buy Nigella Caesar premixed on our website! Just substitute 1/4 cup in place of the spices in the dressing recipe above.
