I was going to cook this recipe which is on the back of the packet of TVP......but, the amount of boiling water used just seems so wrong, plus there is an extra 2 cups of water in the ingredients list, which is not mentioned in the directions......so I gave up!!!

TVP absorbs a large amount of water to rehydrate. The two cups of water at the end of the recipe is the water amount needed to prepare the 1 cup of brown rice. This portion of the dish needs to be cooked separately from the red bean and TVP portion.

Good and easy recipe, however I decreased my top down to roughly 1/2 - 3/4 c, it\'s a keeper.
Thanks. |
