Katie of Don’t eat off the sidewalk posted this recipe, which I think is originally from Veganomicon. Celine at Have cake will travel and 28 Cooks also have made them and posted them also, which is no wonder - they are delicious. There are 2 big things that make a difference with them. First, steaming the tempeh, makes it softer and give is a more mellow flavor. And, secondly, the Penko really is super, it makes a much more crunchy crust than regular breadcrumbs. It’s quite expensive here, so I will use i sparingly, but it is worth it. Bravo to all involved with the making and posting of this great recipe.

FYI, these aren’t from Vcon–they’re from Katie’s zine, which is named after her blog. They are delicious, though!

Aren’t they delicious though? I was obsessed with them for awhile.

I wish it weren’t such a drag to get tempeh here, I’d make these more often than I do.

I made a double batch of these last night for the first time. Definitely not the last time!!! They were very easy to make, and so so so so so sooooo yummy! FYI: Doubling the recipe works very well. It was enough to have for dinner for two (served with tots and broccolini) AND I got leftovers for my lunch today (which is minutes away). Hoping they reheat okay. Next time I make them, they’re going to be served with celery and vegan ranch. Yummmmm. Drool.

I can’t believe I haven’t gotten around to making these yet. Everyone raves. Your photo looks delicious.

Thanks for the review! And no, they aren’t from Veganomicon, but I was inspired to make them after Isa posted wings on her blog (I think she used tofu, though). I can’t handle just margarine and hot sauce.
