Plant-based mushroom "chik-un" chef (video)

Chef, can you make us something like this Buddha's Delight out of tofu or green jackfruit?

Mushroom tastes like chicken, so make KFC
Why did the chicken cross the road?
(Sauce Stache) 9/15/19: I finally got my hands on "Chicken of the Woods," the mushroom that tastes just like poultry.

I can't believe how incredible this mushroom tastes, so I knew I had to make a plant-based KFC ("Kentucky Fried Chik-un"). I ordered mushrooms here (no sponsorship): oregonmushrooms.com.

Vegans love to love and be loved by chickens.
The goal of SauceStache is to continue trying something new to me and something different. I find inspiration from The SauceSquad and my constant hunt on social media to see what food is being made around the world and how I can try to make it. Let's try to make some food while having fun.

Fy: new "magic mushroom" found by NASA

NASA helps serve Yellowstone micro-extremophile-fungi for breakfast (Nature's Fynd)

This Adam & Eve Apple specimen is not it.
A “magic mushroom” is taking a wide-range of diners — from Manhattan’s famed Le Bernardin to astronauts in outer space — on a wild trip.

Known as Fy, rhymes with sci-fi, the funky fungi are a protein formed from a microbe found by a NASA-funded geo-microbiologist in the acid hot springs of Yellowstone National Park.
It tastes like anything or nothing in particular.
Astronauts are now studying these fungi in space as a food source during long missions. Back on Earth, Chef Eric Ripert has been using Fy in several dishes at Le Bernardin, the Michelin-starred seafood sanctuary named the top restaurant in the world by La Liste last month.

“We call it here, as a joke, the ‘magic mushroom.’ It’s basically magic,” Ripert told Side Dish. “It tastes like nothing, [if nothing tasted] like milk with a slight umami taste.”

For the past six months, Ripert has served Fy in his desserts, including a chamomile ice cream, and in a squash blossom delicacy.

He’s also recently included it in a savory Yukon Gold Potato dish with olive and a sauce vierge, in his $220 vegetarian tasting menu and in a cold hazelnut dessert.

Minerals are missing from soil and food

The mighty Himalayas are riddled with Buddhist monasteries, monuments, and statues.

Shilajeet good, weakness bad. Eat rock (mineral).
Is author Dr. Steven Gundry, MD, a fraud and a quack now -- eager for a great gimmick as a money grab -- or is he a sincere vegetarian researcher who changes his mind as he goes along? It used to be "Avoid all plant lectins" then it was "Eat anything you want, just add my special secret ingredient olive oil" [which only grows in quantity in Morocco on a farm I made a personal deal with]. Now he's echoing the message of Dr. Joel Wallach (criticalhealthnews.com) in rediscovering that our "soil is depleted" and can't provide intensively farmed fruits and vegetables with the nutrient levels they once had.

Dr. Gundry MD ®
So we have to get it from supplements, but supplements won't be digest without these critical trace minerals needed for health. They are found in organic fulvic acid (Sanskrit Shilajit, English "Destroyer of Weakness" or Asphalt or Mineral Pitch, Russian Mumiyo, German Mumie), which comes most famously from the Himalayas. But Dr. Gundry claims to have found a richer vein of these minerals here in the United States. He won't say where [to keep his investment secret] but does claim it's in the lower 48 somewhere in the south of the country. It sounds like he found Dr. Wallach's mountain of prehistoric minerals, which are sold in Youngevity products. It seems Dr. Gundry is getting more extreme (ex-[main]stream), but he's absolutely correct that we need 90 minerals and vitamins that just are not in the soil anymore. We need to supplement them into our diets for maximum health.
It might be better to go to the tallest mountain in the world, K2, in the Karakoram range
