VEGAN WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE
Most store bought Worcestershire sauces have anchovies in them. Here is a recipe from The Garden of Vegan by Tanya Barnard and Sarah Kramer that has been veganized! Here's a little history from IndiaCurry.com: History shows that during British Raaj, there was a Governor General for the state of Bengal, Lord Marcus Sandys who enjoyed a Bengali chutney on his fish. The chutney was made with Tamarind, Onions, Garlic, Ginger, Salt, Cayenne Pepper, Sugar cane jaggery, Raisins, Dried Dates, Cinnamon, Cardamom and Cloves. He ordered a batch to take home in 1835 along with the recipe. His home was in Shire, Worcester. By the time the ship arrived, and the Governor took the delivery, the chutney had turned in to an aromatic vinegar. He hired two chemists Lea and Perrin. They took the recipe and made a batch. The pungent aroma was too severe for their liking. However, they let it age for three months to emulate time in the ship. Again the chutney turned into an aromatic vinegar. They made a few modifications. They added soy sauce as a base and vinegar. They added Anchovies, since the chutney was originally made to be served on fish. They replaced Jaggery, Raisins and Dates with molasses. After these modifications, they let it ferment. Further adjustments were made to finally produce the "Worcester sauce" and now marketed as "Worcestershire sauce". Similar formulas are used in United States to create Steak sauces, except there are no Anchovies. The Steak sauces are NOT aged, but cooked to make them more pungent. Tomato purees are also added when making Steak sauces. So, now you have it. If it is raw, its a Chinch-Gur Chutney. If its fermented, its a Worcestershire Sauce. If its cooked, its a Steak Sauce.

Not exactly the same as regular Worcestershire, but a good substitute. This sauce has a very intense flavor that I actually like MORE than the regular stuff. Found on randomgirl.com.

Time 5h
Yield 2 cups thick sauce; 6 cups thin
Number Of Ingredients 25
Steps:
- Two days before you want to make the Worcestershire sauce, combine the kombu with 1 cup cold water and refrigerate overnight. Strain and reserve both the kombu and the liquid. Then soak the shiitake mushrooms in the liquid overnight.
- Put the kombu in a large stockpot with 8 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and very gently simmer for 2 hours. Add the vegetable trimmings to the stockpot and cook for another 1 to 2 hours.
- While the stock is cooking, pure the tomatoes in a blender or food processor; strain with a fine sieve into a large pot over high heat. Drain and thinly slice the reconstituted shiitake mushrooms (discard their soaking liquid). Add the mushrooms, onion, carrots, celery and ginger to the tomato purée. Bring the tomato mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 hour.
- Add the cinnamon, bay leaves, black peppercorns, sansho peppercorns, sage, soybean powder (if you're using it), cloves, nutmeg, thyme and chili to the tomato mixture; cook for 10 minutes. Cool slightly, then blend gently in a blender or food processor; you want all the spices to be finely ground but not liquefied. Return the tomato mixture to the pot and add the rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar and salt. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, then turn the heat to medium-high and cook for another 10 minutes; turn the heat to low.
- Strain the vegetable stock and discard the solids. Put the wine and 3 cups of the vegetable stock in a saucepan over high heat; cook until reduced by .75, about 15 minutes. Strain .5 of the tomato mixture into the reduced wine-stock mixture and keep warm (this is the "thin" sauce).
- Add the apple to the remaining tomato mixture; simmer for another 10 minutes, then add a dash of shichimi. Taste and adjust the seasoning. (This is your "thick" sauce.) Use the sauces immediately or transfer to airtight containers and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Tips:
- Use a variety of mushrooms: Using a variety of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and portobello, will add depth of flavor to your vegan Worcestershire sauce.
- Roast the mushrooms before using: Roasting the mushrooms before adding them to the sauce will concentrate their flavor and give the sauce a richer taste.
- Use a good quality tamari: Tamari is a type of Japanese soy sauce that is made without wheat. It has a richer, more flavorful taste than regular soy sauce, and it is a good choice for making vegan Worcestershire sauce.
- Add a touch of sweetness: A touch of sweetness will help to balance out the savory flavors of the sauce. You can add sweetness with maple syrup, brown sugar, or molasses.
- Experiment with different spices: You can add different spices to your vegan Worcestershire sauce to create a unique flavor profile. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper.
Conclusion:
Vegan Worcestershire sauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is easy to make at home with a few simple ingredients, and it is a great way to add umami flavor to your favorite recipes. Whether you are using it to make a classic dish like steak and kidney pie or you are simply looking for a flavorful addition to your next stir-fry, vegan Worcestershire sauce is a great choice.
