These Barbecue Vegan Wings Are Made From Mushrooms

These Barbecue Vegan Wings Are Made From Mushrooms

Barbecue season is officially upon us. And what’s more fitting for your summer picnic than a batch of vegan wings? 

On this episode of EATKINDLY With Me, Nathan-Josias, a French plant-based chef currently residing in London, makes barbecue chickenless wings out of oyster mushrooms.

Nathan-Josias makes the savory barbecue sauce using only four ingredients: maple syrup, ketchup, balsamic vinegar, and smoked paprika. The wings are beer-battered, but he notes alcohol-free beer or sparkling water can be used instead. “But, you will not have the same taste,” he adds with a laugh.

For a bit of a kick, the batter features chili powder, as well as flour, salt, pepper, and baking powder. And what’s a vegan wing without a little dipping sauce? Nathan-Josias also whips up a creamy ranch dressing sans dairy. Feel free to double-dip.
