Vegan Chickpea “Tuna” aka Chuna
I thought I’d share how I make my chickpea chuna as it’s slowly changed over the years. It was initially lacking any sort of fishy flavour, at that point in my veganism I’d not tried any seaweed, or vegan fish sauce, so I was unaware of those things. I actually always hated fish before I… Continue reading Vegan Chickpea “Tuna” aka Chuna
