Piccata

Hello everyone, first of all I would like to apologize for my extended awful appearance and voice. I am suffering from Bells Palsy and so I am going to be a bit of a challenge. Also somehow the audio got recorded from my camera instead of my external microphone so the audio in the first parts of the video is horrible. Just a series of challenges this time.

Today I am making a perfect dish for valentine’s day this year, you can also make it for those romantic date nights or your special anniversary, vegan piccata, it makes two, is quick and easy to make, and will help make you lucky.

“Chicken” Marsala in a butter sauce

For many of my years as a chef I worked at Italian restaurants, and one of the most popular dishes was Chicken Marsala. It was usually either made in a heavy cream sauce or a butter sauce, I personally enjoyed the butter sauce more, and I have veganized it for you.

Vegan Eggplant Parmesan Melanzane alla Parmigiana

Instagram user madamyauch made this suggestion, and of course I had to do it. Vegan Eggplant Parmesan is one of my favorite Italian dishes, so of course I had to make it! Thank you for your suggestion! The video is 30 minutes long. I try to keep my videos as short as possible, but since there are several steps to make this dish it is longer than usual. I am making my own sauce and breading my own eggplant, so this video is like watching two in one. You can use store-bought sauce if you would like, but making fresh tomato sauce is easy, let me show you how!
