Pork is one of the most taste-neutral foods you can get. It's all in the spice imo. Sausages can be quite dry as well. So apart from texture, many meat-alternatives aren't so off :) I've rarely seen anything that promises to replace beef, though.
- norov 5y agoHere I thought pork was in fact the least taste-neutral. Pork is one of the few meats that tastes delicious without any kind of seasoning at all. To go further I use pork fat to season othee foods.
- eloeffler 5y agoOk so that's probably subjective to some extent. The fat part is definitely relevant. When making vegan Mett from rice waffles (original that is spiced raw pork), I usually add a fair amount of oil to somehow get that satisfactory feeling that arises when eating fatty meat. It somehow works, but not as much as I wish. Grated dried tomatoes give some of the umami taste. But the fat is kind of special...
- Zababa 5y agoI don't really agree, pork products can taste great alone. cured ham is a great example of that. For sausages, the only dry sausages I've tasted are "hot dog" sausages that are an emulsion of meat (which is usually a bad sign).
