I need help veganizing a recipe, any help?

Question

I have this really great salad recipe I saw on Rachel Ray's show and it tastes really good but, I'm vegan and it uses honey I would like to know what's a good replacement for honey.

Sweet 'n' Zesty Salad[I use it relatively. Not actual measurments]

Cucumbers[thinly sliced]

Onions[thinly sliced]

Sesame seed oil

Honey[the issue]

Red wine vinegar

Sesame seeds[optional I never use them but, they are a topping]

Directions:

[1]Put Vinegar and Honey in bowl with equal amounts and mix until honey dissolves.

[2]Add just a little sesame seed oil.

[3]Now add cucumbers and onions and toss[There isn't really a clean way to make this salad. lol].

[4]Enjoy! This salad is refreshing and tastes great.

What should I use to replace the honey?

Answer 1

Maple syrup, but be sure it's the 100% maple syrup.

Answer 2

Check out veganstore.com. I have a honey replacer from them that's really good, and they have a couple different ones that might work for your purposes.

Answer 3

Cook down some raw sugar.

Pretty extreme isn't it? Do you not eat yeast as well? It is a living organism.

Answer 4

Agave Nectar. You can find it at any health store. :)

Answer 5

ground beef

Answer 6

What you use to replace honey depends on the recipe and your individual preference. It often takes a little trial and error to find what works for you and your favourite recipes. Anything sweet will do, even plain sugar if you are in a pinch.

I'd recommend fruit juice concentrate, brown rice syrup, maple syrup, agave syrup, date syrup, or molasses.

Vegan warning:

- Some maple syrups have a few drops of animal fat added during processing

- Some sugar is processed using charred animal bones

Answer 7

You can use agave nectar. It is a great honey replacer. You can buy it at a health food store or online probably at http://veganstore.com .

Answer 8

Jess is pretty right on...

Agave Nectar is by far my very fav liquid sweetener!

Answer 9

Corn syrup or maple syrup would work!  Rachel Ray is awesome and so are you for being vegan.
