Vegan Cullen Skink
A creamy and comforting vegan version of the traditional Scottish soup, typically made with smoked fish. This version uses smoked tofu for a similar flavor profile.
Ingredients
- 8 oz Smoked Tofu
- 1 lb Potatoes
- 1 medium Onion
- 4 cups Vegetable Broth
- 1/2 cup Plant-Based Cream
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
Instructions
- 1Prepare ingredients: Dice the 8 oz of smoked tofu into 1/2-inch cubes. Peel the 1 lb of potatoes and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes. Peel the 1 medium onion and chop it into 1/4-inch pieces.
- 2Sauté aromatics and potatoes: Heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot (e.g., a 6-quart capacity pot) over medium heat (approximately 300-325°F / 150-160°C). Add the chopped 1 medium onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it softens and becomes translucent, about 5 minutes. Then, add the diced 1 lb of potatoes and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 3Simmer with broth: Pour in the 4 cups of vegetable broth. Increase the heat to medium-high (approximately 350-375°F / 175-190°C) and bring the liquid to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low (approximately 200-225°F / 95-105°C) and let it simmer, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork and feel tender.
- 4Finish the soup: Stir in the diced 8 oz of smoked tofu and the 1/2 cup of plant-based cream. Continue to heat the soup over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring gently, until the tofu is warmed through and the soup is hot but not boiling.
- 5Season and serve: Stir in the 1/2 teaspoon of salt and the 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Ladle the hot soup into serving bowls and garnish each serving with the 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley, finely chopped.
