Vegan Hacker: Fries and Dip

Description

Everywhere else in the country, the start of Spring means that the birds are chirping, the trees are sprouting new leaves, and that the sun shines warmly on peoples’ skin as they lounge for hours at the park or the beach. People in these other places have aready started wearing tank tops and shorts, moved their sandals to the front rows of their shoe racks, and have freshly-made popsicles chilling in their freezers at this very moment.

Those of is in San Francisco, on the other hand, are still donning fleece and double layers. We sleep in flannel and wrap our hands around hot cups of coffee and tea for the warmth as much as the caffeine. We know that it may look bright and sunny outdoors, but that the pretty blue sky shoots out wind like ice daggers. Sure, on a good day we can leave the house at noon in a t-shirt and jeans— but we know that by 4:00 pm we’ll be wishing that we’d brought a parka.

This is why we need comfort food! Come to Vegan Hacker on Tuesday May 29th to make vegan fries and dip! Relive those (warm) comforting days you spent in the fast food joint at the mall or the snack shack on the beach— without all the sketchy animal products and questionable ingredients!



How it’s gonna work

First, at 7pm on Tuesday May 29th, Maggie of Vegan Hacker SF will begin the event with a demonstration of how to make some easy oven fries and a very, very plain and basic home-made ketchup (so cheap and easy!).

Next, participants will make and share their own ketchup/dips and fries. Creative thinking is encouraged (Poutine! Tater tots! Cheesey fries! Curry Fries! Carrot fries?)! Vegan Hacker will supply a small quantity of (normal russet-type) potatoes and tomato paste, but it’s probably best if people bring their own array of items to turn into fries and dip (this ensures variety!). Also, if you want to deep fry the fries (instead of baking them), be sure to bring some oil!

Finally, we will EAT. Yummmm!
