Biz Stone And Martha Stewart Make Seitan Bourguignon

Written by Vegetarian Star on Wednesday, March 30th, 2011 in Film & TV, Food & Drink.

Biz Stone‘s segment on The Martha Stewart Show has been posted to Gawker.

“One of the things we like to do is we like to take real comfort food [and make it vegan]. And this particular food is like a stew that’s really great during a rainy day,” Biz said.

Biz revealed that when his wife Livia is cooking at home, he reads books to her while she’s at the stovetop.

“We have a bunch of classic books. We just finished Treasure Island. We have a lot of the Sherlock Holmes stories…That’s kind of like, my role in the kitchen.”

Using Westsoy brand of seitan, Biz and Martha walk through the steps of cooking seitan bourguignon. While Martha is stirring the seitan, Biz jokes, “I guess I should be reading to you.”

Since Mike Tyson embarked on a vegan diet, losing over 100 pounds in the process, he doesn’t even want to smell meat aromas.

That includes on someone’s breath.

Tyson shared this with the New York Times, while adding he wants nothing in his body that “that’s going to enrage me — no processed food, no meat.”

We already know vegetables can make your armpits smell nicer. Conversely, animal products like meat, dairy and eggs may leave your mouth hungry for a mint or two.

Former Lost star Jorge Garcia has been in the kitchen mastering his formula for almond milk and he’s already got it bottled and waiting for the no-milk man to deliver.

It’s hard to get “Lost” using Garcia’s recipe because there are only two ingredients: almonds and water.

“Having given up dairy not too long ago I couldn’t help but notice how many ingredients were actually in my store bought almond milk,” Garcia blogged.
